He may have hoped for a reconciliation late last year, but it seems Kobe Bryant’s divorce is still very much going ahead.
The 33-year-old’s wife is reportedly walking away from their ten year marriage with three of their properties.
According to TMZ, Vanessa will get all of their mansions in the Newport Beach area of California.

Vanessa filed for divorce from the NBA superstar husband last month, citing ‘irreconcilable differences.’
When the news broke, TMZ also reported that the couple had no pre-nuptial agreement, and that Vanessa had requested spousal support.

The pair met when she was just 18, when she was working as a backing dancer in a studio where he was recording, though that material was never released to the public.
Vanessa is also said to be asking for joint custody of their two daughters – eight-year-old Natalia and five-year-old Gianna.
But Vanessa is asking that Kobe get visitation rights, which means she wants the kids in her care most of the time.
Vanessa is being represented by Laura Wasser and attorney Samantha Klein, whose clients include Britney Spears, Angelina Jolie, Maria Shriver and Kim Kardashian.
