Black Twitter users fat shamed Kobe Bryant‘s widow Vanessa Bryant and accused her of being pregnant by NBA legend Chris Paul.
Black Twitter users called Vanessa “fat” and accused the 39-year-old mother of three of being pregnant by family friend Chris, who already has two children with his wife, Jada Crawley.
Vanessa wore an ankle length black coat and slimming black turtleneck sweater with black slacks and stiletto thigh high boots.
The rumors about Vanessa and Chris, 36, began circulating after Vanessa and the Clippers star’s long embrace on the court.
Black Twitter noted the cold reaction by Chris Paul’s 9-year-old daughter after her father’s prolonged embrace with Vanessa, who presented Chris with the Kobe & Gigi WNBA Advocacy Award. The little girl seemed to pull away from Vanessa when she leaned in to kiss her.

Although you can’t put a timeframe on grieving , i found it very disgusting that some men were assuming Vanessa Bryant was pregnant since she gained weight .
