Vanessa Bryant And Khloe Kardashian Didn't Get Along

Despite word that Vanessa Bryant was tipped off about Kobe‘s infidelity from other basketball wives, sources are now saying that Vanessa wasn’t very well liked by most of the Los Angeles Lakers’ players wives.
More specifically, she was NOT in the good graces of Khloe Kardashian!
The reality star reportedly went out of her way to be friendly with Vanessa after marrying Lamar Odom, but like other women connected to the team, had no luck breaking Mrs. Bryant’s “icy exterior.” One team insider close to the situation explained:

“Khloe truly tried to break through Vanessa’s icy exterior, with no success. Khloe has always been down to earth, and she became instantly very well liked by Lamar’s teammates and wives. Vanessa was extremely jealous of the loving and healthy marriage that Lamar and Khloe have. Khloe and Lamar had the Bryants over for dinner on multiple occasions, and it was always very tense because of Vanessa. Vanessa just thinks that she is better than everyone else.├óΓé¼┬¥

Khloe is pretty easy going and we can’t imagine anyone NOT getting along with her, so maybe Vanessa really isn’t too friendly.
In fact, people have actually been wondering why it took this long for the Bryants to divorce and why it wasn’t KOBE who filed the papers. One of the NBA star’s friends has said:

“Vanessa was extremely arrogant, and very, very hard to get along with. Kobe’s fellow Lakers had encouraged him to dump Vanessa for years because he was so unhappy. Bryant’s teammate, Derek Fisher, and his wife, Candace, fully support Kobe. Kobe didn’t pull the plug because of his two daughters. It’s easy to blame the divorce on Kobe for his cheating, but Vanessa played a significant role in the demise of their marriage.”

While Vanessa could have easily played a major role in her relationship’s demise, that still doesn’t excuse her husband’s affairs.
If all this is true, maybe those basketball wives didn’t tell Vanessa about Kobe’s affairs because they cared about her feelings, but instead because they wanted her gone!
OoO! So scandalous. Kinda wish we could watch all the drama unfold on VH1’s Basketball Wives! Ha!
