Vanessa Benches Kobe....

All marriages have their ups and downs, but the 10-year union of Vanessa and Kobe Bryant was certainly unlike any other.

They got engaged in 2000, when she was 18 and still a senior in high school. He ascended to the top of the NBA and was a three-time champion before the news of his affair in a Colorado hotel room and the ensuing sexual assualt charges surfaced.
Vanessa stood by her husband -- getting a $4 million ring for her loyalty -- but that could only last so long, as she filed for divorce this week.

Will this divorce cause more issues for the Lakers this season?? Kobe is very emotional...too bad he didn't keep his other body parts to himself..
