Kobe Bryant sheds 3 homes in divorce deal SANTA ANA, Calif., Jan. 21 (UPI) -- Kobe Bryant's estranged wife, Vanessa, got the keys to three upscale Southern California homes as part of the couple's divorce settlement, court records said. The trio of mansions in Newport Beach is valued at nearly $19 million and mark the beginning of the formal distribution of assets in the proceedings under way in Orange County. Mrs. Bryant filed for divorce in December due to irreconcilable differences. The Los Angeles Times said the lack of a prenuptial agreement means Vanessa will likely walk away with half of the NBA star's $150 million net worth plus spousal and child support. The Bryants have not spoken publicly but released a written statement saying the matters were being resolved, the Times said.
