Vanessa Bryant breaks silence on pregnant, new boyfriend rumors with Rihanna memes
Vanessa Bryant has finally reacted to swirling pregnancy rumors with a series of Instagram stories. The 43-year-old widow of NBA legend Kobe Bryant posted a series of Rihanna memes to quash speculation about her having a fifth child with an unidentified 27-year-old boyfriend.
Addressing days of baseless gossip, Vanessa posted a meme of Rihanna floating in water, snorkel mask on, flipping the middle finger, captioned, 'Me protecting my peace, not pregnant & having fun all summer.'
She shared another meme with Rihanna's photo and wrote: 'I mean, I am not just the only one'. The images, shared via @vanessabryant, were a direct rebuke to trolls who cited unverified photos suggesting a 'baby bump'.

Later on Sunday, Bryant also posted a motivational quote: 'The only way to impress me is by being a good person. I don't care what you have… I just have deep respect for people with pure hearts and good intentions.'
Vanessa Bryant is the mother to Natalia, Bianka, and Capri and the late Gianna, who died in the helicopter crash with her father, Kobe.
Reacting to rumors about her being pregnant, one social media user on Saturday wrote: 'Vanessa Bryant is pregnant by a 27 year old basketball player. Kobe gave his life, ruined family relationships behind this woman and just 5 years after the death of the man she spent over 20 years with, you get pregnant by another professional player 16 years younger than you. There are no rules out here fellas."
"So rumor has it that Vanessa Bryant (Kobe Bryant's Widow) is pregnant which I don't believe but even it was true. In the vows it say 'til death do us part'. Kobe passed away 5 years ago!!!!" a second one said on X, platform formerly known as Twitter.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce were spotted in Florida a few days ago as they looked comfortable with each other on a dinner date. More recently, the pop sensation was spotted in New York City with best friend Selena Gomez as they grabbed dinner together at an upscale restaurant. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now But it seems like even though Taylor Swift has been spotted in NYC, she might have found her new home in Florida where she was reportedly staying with Travis Kelce as he trained for the upcoming season of the NFL. Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce were enjoying their lives in Florida together Recently, as per Life & Style, a source has revealed that, 'They're (Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce) living fairly normally here. She hasn't been spotted much, but everyone is buzzing that she's here.' The source also added, 'When they go out to eat or have drinks, people let them be.' This also seems like what Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have been wanting in the last few months as they had temporarily disappeared from the public eye after Super Bowl LIX where the pop sensation was booed by fans. While Travis Kelce is gearing up for the upcoming season of the NFL, it seems like Taylor Swift has kept herself busy by buying back all the rights to her first six albums. Taylor Swift has not made any announcements about a potential new project Recently, Taylor Swift issued a statement on her Instagram where she spoke about the struggle she went through to own all her music and even gave fans an update about the potential release of Reputation (Taylor's Version). The statement read as, "I know, I know. What about Rep TV? Full transparency. I haven't even re-recorded a quarter of it.' The statement added, 'The Reputation album was so specific to that time in my life, and I kept hitting a stopping point when I tried to remake it. All that defiance, that longing to be understood while feeling purposely misunderstood, that desperate hope, that shame-born snarl and mischief." This had upset many fans as many felt that Taylor Swift was working on her new music, as she stayed away from the public and might just be planning to release it soon. For now, Taylor Swift has not announced a new project and as per Daily Mail, a source has revealed that it might not be too long until the star couple make a serious decision about their futures together.
