Dr. Umar breaks his silence on Kobe's father Joe Bryant passing away and tells Vannessa Bryant to take care of his mother and pay his father's funeral cost.
That’s the thing. His parents practically stopped speaking to him completely since he was in his early twenties because he married his wife when he was young.
You live a longer life if you respect, love All your neighbors and don't say disrespectful comments about things that are people's business. Don't turn the gospel into a gospel of hellfire.
A good wife would have made sure family was reunited and children had relationships with grandparents and other family members. She got 16 million from lawsuit and donated it. No she's not obligated but, there is no way in the world my deceased husband's parents would not have money whether they liked me or not. Here's a few million. I would want my inlaws to love me and children. Kobe could've also had a will for parents. Generational wealth for a community that dont even like black people. I have beautiful Mexican grandchildren and I love them with all that is within me. They have lived with me in California and Georgia. I truly hate the ugly ways that money makes people act. RIP to those 3 Bryant's.
It's crazy how everyone would do things this way or that way but they treat family the same way Kobe did if they had a rift. You don't know what you would do unless you were in that position.
@@gokaren420 Maybe it's not money that makes people act ugly. Have you ever looked at the way people who feel entitled to your money act ugly and cause a stir??
So Kobe parents can be racist and demean her for not being black, but she is supposed to reward them. I guarantee you if this was someone like Serena Williams husband’s parents acting like that you would be singing a different song. Yet, because his parents are black, and they can be rude and racist and it’s no problem. I also like how you disparage the Mexican community yet thinks that’s ok because you have Mexican kids. That’s like saying, “well I am not racist. I have black friends.” If that community hates blacks so much then why did you allow one of your own kids to mate with them? What about black women did they learn from you that made them turn away from their own women?
@michaelmann5501 that still doesn't negate what Kobes parents contributed to his upbringing and success...Kobe spoke on his father how essential he was in the foundation of who he was as a basketball player
@sonykent4940 I won't dispute what you are saying but There was a reason Kobe Pushed away from his parents. Not to say he was right but If my folks had a problem with the person I love and they attacked me for loving her, I might do the same. You Never know what was really going on with someone. Just my experience. A lot of Athletes cut off their parents because the parents feel entitled to the Athletes money. Just think, if those guys Never said no, the parents or family would drain them guys and they would be left with nothing. Even to family and your parents, you have to say NO.
@sonykent4940 Just my means of thinking. Parents or Family, This is my personal take. " You Can't Disturb My Peace and Expect to Remain In My Circle". If anyone really love or care for you, they wouldn't disturb your peace, P.E.R.I.O.D.
The school is here the money was used to buy the school why do people keep saying where’s the school when we see it all the time! The school will be open wait on it
@@rezd1170 I’m just quoting dr ufraud. He said renovation was complete but walls haven’t even been painted yet. There’s no ceiling or running water lol
But Vanessa didn't take Kobe to them basketball practices back in Italy when Kobe was in middle school .. Who did that? Vanessa wasn't there in the 1996 NBA draft.. who was there? Vanessa wasn't there at Kobe prom. Who did he take, mmmm, a famous singer . Vanessa wasn't there when Kobe spoke multiple languages .. who taught him that ?
A lot of girls start like that tho bro not like she the daughter of England queen or some 😂 cristiano Ronaldo met his girl at the store while he was shopping now she got like 2 of his kids crazyyyyy come up 😂
In all fairness, she took a used Corolla back from her own mama. It’s in court docs. I really felt sorry for her when the tragedy occurred, but she was not humbled. Sad for Kobe’s parents who raised him right. However, he too- did them wrong.
How? The refused to show up to his wedding. THEY caused the estrangement and he rode with his WIFE. WTF is wrong with people? Kobe’s Daddy went along with HIS WIFE right? BOTH of them shunned their adult son and it cost them.
Exactly. People forget that she's close with one of his sisters, and we don't know the conversation. And if she does donate I'm pretty sure she not gone blast it all over social media.
@@theanimerapper6351that doesn't mean she can't give them no money. We just live in a country where black people are treated the lowest. And people try to keep us low.
This is all Kobe's fault, but black men don't want to accept that part! If Kobe really loved his parents, he would have set up some kind of trust for them.
@LanceG007 Lance , Kobe was in a unique position, where he could financially take care of his parents. Wealthy people should have a will. Respectfully Kobe should have created a Will and gave his parents money to live instead of them selling off his stuff. That's so trashy.
Never listened to Dr. Umar before. But this man's explanation of racism versus bigotry, I am totally in agreement. You cant get better clarity than the simplified way he broke it down.
She could give Kobe's Mom a good 5 million an say she did what she could an leave it at that. Jordan loved his Dad like a MF! We all saw the pain he endured when his Father was tragically murdered. Jordan is taking care of his family. Kobe should've set his differences aside an took care of his parents. They saw to it that he got an education an played basketball. Had he had no good parents he would've never gotten where he needed as a basketball player. That's facts
I mean kobe did took care of his parents but they got greedy plus he brought them a nice house they still complain about it and his mother sold his high school stuff plus his father and mother didn’t embrace their grandchildren
@@rellysunshine9665 They turned their backs on him. They no showed his wedding. They didn't deal with his wife and kids. And they didn't appreciate the money he gave them or the things he brought them
@@rellysunshine9665 Kobe was married to Vanessa for over 2 decades. So the whole "He was forced" angle doesn't fly. Also Kobe was a grown azz man. His parents don't get to dictate who he marries and who he doesn't. For you to say HE shouldn't have done them like that. When THEY are the 1s who No showed his wedding and wanted nothing to do with THEIR GRANDCHILDREN. Speaks VOLUMES about you.
@@rellysunshine9665 If your parents disapprove of someone who's good to you, that you love wouldn't you say" forget my parents", you still love them, but you're going to have to separate from them at least for a while
Vanessa NEEDS TOO ASK HER SELF "WHAT WOULD KOBE DO?" that's the only why and she knows what Kobe would say he wouldn't think twice he would heart broken rn
I’m black and Mexican like Kobe’s kids…..Kobe’s parents treated her Vanessa like sh!t and we’re racist and bigoted towards her because she’s Mexican….black and racist 🙄 Kobe helped them with a lot but didn’t leave them anything and really didn’t keep close contact with them….this is Kobe’s fault and responsibility……this story hasn’t even played out and she’s getting bs 🙄
I just remember that his parents were at all of his early games in the NBA, then after a period of time you didn't see them anymore. Who remembers that?
I agree with you.....except.....Kobe didn't even rock with his own parents like that, and they didn't like Vanessa at all......AND.....her responsibility only extended to " till death do us part...", and Kobe died.
Kobe's sister shouldn't have taken the car. There are rookies who have bought their parents homes. Remember when Vanessa filed for divorce after waiting for the 10 year period to access half the estate but found some of the property was in Kobe's employees' names. There is a reason Kobe put the homes in someone else's name. It's just unfortunate he died so suddenly. HIS MOTHER WOULD'VE CHECKED THE WEATHER FOR HIM.
he has a house in Rob palinka name as well I wonder if he wanted his family in those houses before he died because I hear Vanessa say he was thinking about having them around more what a witch her and her mother are sad
I think Vanessa is avoiding kobe's parents, His relationship with them is nobody's business! If Vanessa is taking care of her mom and her relatives(with his $$$)...I don't see why she cant pay for KOBE'S Dads funeral!! TF?? 🤬
Kobe and his dad wasn’t close lmao 🤣 his dad did something to him and he cut him off lesson is to be good to yo kids cause it definitely comes back around
Coby didn't have a relationship with his parents, don't have anything to do with Vanessa.They didn't like her , didn't want Kobe to marry her.That"s not her fault.Stop blaming her for her in law not liking her Yes it would be nice of her to help,but Kobe should have made sure his parents were Straight.Stop talking shit and you don't know their life.
It doesn’t matter what anyone says about Vanessa, she is Kobe Bryant’s wife…. Everybody else needs to stay out there business!!!! Dr Umar needs to stfu 🤫
But Vanessa didn't take Kobe to them basketball practice back in Italy when he was in middle school .. Who did that? Vanessa wasn't there in the 1996 NBA draft.. who was there? Vanessa wasn't there at Kobe prom. Who did he take, mmmm, a famous singer .
@@anthonyjefferson3941 regardless SHE was his wife. I saw an interview where Kobe said he did a lot for his parents, but it was never enough. I would hope she take care of his mother, but she is not obligated to do so.
Why didn’t Kobe leave his parents in his will? His father never expected Vanessa and didn’t like her for some reason. I don’t believe he even tried to get to know her.
She doesn’t owe them anything. They hated her and never had a relationship with his beautiful daughters. Kobe chose her when she was 17 and she was his wife. And she was a good wife because she could have divorced him and took his money when he got accused of rape, but she stayed.
He was doing so good until this point. First off Kobe's parents hated Vanessa and hated the fact that she married Kobe. They didn't even come to their wedding. So before y'all blindly agree understand the situation between Vanessa and his parents because none of you would take care of someone who's disliked you from day one. Vanessa has no responsibility to Kobe's mom. Second, all white people are not racist, that's an ignorant assumption. From a personal standpoint, the most hate that I have received throughout my life has come from other black men. I work with good white people, I've been friends with good white people...anyone can be racist. There's a difference between being culturally biased, and being racist. I think the majority of white people are very culturally biased in relation to black culture, but that's not racism. And third, I don't know what his obsession is with 'bunny hopping' but even in a topic not related to it he has to bring up the ignorant perspective that's it's wrong to date outside your race. This isn't 1950 where a black man can get killed for looking at a white women, you're lucky if you find anyone that you're attracted to that'll love you, no matter what race they are. Love who you want!
She's wicked whatever happens between her husband and his father she shouldn't get between them,she has all his money that his parents took him to basketball training every day,his dad coach him pushes him to be his best,no wonder some of u black men are still the little puppy behind the white man
They saw or heard something they didnt like I should've trusted my parents when they gave my Ex the side eye,but they always embraced her and their GRANDS.
She is TOTALLY NOT obligated to take care of any part of Kobe's family (other than the children she had with him). If she does it out of the kindness of her heart that's on her. NBA players need to mind their own business and they would be totally out of line trying to tell Vanessa how to handle her affairs. Dr Umar I like some of your messages, BUT every issue is NOT yours to speak on.
This is what’s wrong with black folks today. They get there’s and forget all about the collective. But once something happens to them by them, they look for the collective to support them.
Vanessa is sitting atop millions of dollars/sundries of wealth left behind by Kobe Bryant, yet you assert that she has no obligation to extend some of that to Kobe’s parents, that it is ok for Kobe’s parents to suffer financial deprivation even though Vanessa is awash with wealth from Kobe’s sweat? I don’t understand some people’s reasoning when it comes to money and family.
Vanessa mom also tried to sue her. Both of them didn’t have good relationships with their parents. It’s terrible but if Kobe didn’t have his parents in his will that was his fault. At the same time it was wrong for his mom to sell his stuff.
Umar is smart enough to know that there's a bad pool of women out here, he's not foolish enough to get married. As far as the school is concerned, he said the same thing last year about the opening date, and the year before that, and the year before that, and the year before that, lol.😅
As a die hard Kobe fan, I realize Kobe family didn’t rock with her most of their relationship because she wasn’t black. So now it’s Vanessa responsibility to be cutting checks left and right?! Shiiiiiiiiiit 🤷🏾♂️
no Vanessa said it's me or them and Kobe chosen her and cut of they family business and Kobe father called him a sell out in and a disappointment allegedly
This man should open the school he took people's money for, stop trying to tell people how to live their lives. Loves telling people how to spend their money & live their lives, but doesn't like to be asked basic questions
@@C-Lyfe85 Look up the cartoon predicting that man's death and Kobe is going to end up dying in a helicopter crash," reads the tweet which was shared on November 14, 2012. The tweet has gone viral eight years after it was shared and has left people freaking out, considering that Twitter does not allow users to edit their tweets once they have been posted
Who the hell this guy think he is smh? Telling a grown woman what to do with “her” money. If she was black you would have NO business talking about her affairs. This lady is minding her own business and is still grieving the loss her husband and daughter. She got a foundation in honor of those 2 black people (Mamba and Mambacita) to help communities in America. Any personal affairs is none of your business, but hers’. Bro worry about getting that school open you been promising for years before speaking on the other people’s personal affairs.
He's not telling her what to do with the money that Kobe left her.He is just appealing to her to help Kobe's family out especially since his father died.That's all.
come on he is not saying anything that I would not say. Dr Urma you are pathetic I am white and I am not fucking racist then all black people are racist stop the f8cking race baiting you believe that because you got words that you can spew shit all the time why the hell you don't open your school why then you don't do something for the blacks and stop talking shit all time
Parents need to know their place! Period. How you gonna hate on your child's spouse and not expect him to turn on you?! How you gonna disrespect the mother of your sons children and think everything is going to be gravy?? This is why shit stays toxic...parents want their way waaaaaay past the point of their child already being grown enough to make his own decisions. Idk why people coming after Vanessa. KOBE cut ties, period.
Didn't Kobe's father have life insurance and an NBA career himself? If those things I mentioned are true then why would his widow be struggling to pay for his funeral? Dr. Umar, just stay out this; some of Umar's commentary is good but end of day what Vanessa does with her money is her business. And yes it is her money because in marriage there is no "I" only "we" under the law when both husband and wife are alive. What's yours is mine and vice-versa.
His parents should have been responsible and taken care of themselves. He didn't have that type of relationship with his parents!!MIND YOUR BUISSENESS ! She can do what she wants with HER money he left her!!
yall do know that on multiple occasions Kobe said how his parents didn't approve of Kobe and vanessas relationship because she's Mexican and they refused to go to his games because of hit. I'm not going to say Kobe is wrong for sticking by the woman he loved and hid children with.
The problem is everyone thinks that they can disrespect a black man and we should just put up with it. They keep talking about who raised him and who taught him languages and showed him how to play basketball while they simultaneously omit how these people maliciously sold his personal property, they boycotted his marriage. They didn’t support him throughout his NBA career etc. Black men are slowly waking up every day and saying enough is enough
They didn’t steal money .. they sold the stuff because they needed money .. shouldn’t need shit when your son is Kobe .. he was a terrible son .. and that’s why he died YOUNG
Dr Umar do not be surprised if her hands is not in KB death.. because from the way she treatment she giving his parents is not normal at all this thing is deep
"Dr" Umar needs to mind his business. And stay out of other people's business. Stop trying to tell other people what "they should do". You know nothing about Vanessa. Or the nature of her relationship with Kobe's parents.
Dr.Umar! Said it Best! Vanessa will Reap what she Sow! The Real Mrs Bryant! Will need all the Love and Support she can get. I hope the NBA Comes through to help Support The Real Mrs. Bryant! Rest In Peace Mr.Joe Bryant ❤️🕊️ 🕊️🕊️🙏🏽
She just married him for the money, Spanish woman are taught to go after the bag. Had a Spanish ex who told me her parents didn't want her to marry a black man. They hate us deeply 😅😅
It's up to her. I would take care of my husbands parents because of him not because they liked me. Kobe spoke so highly of his beautiful mother for all his years. Like me or not, I'd make sure his mother was well taken care of for the rest of her days. But that is Vanessa's decision and we r not her and she is gonna do what she wants. He left everything to her for a reason.
All that hard work Joe and Pam Bryant did for Kobe to get where he was at and KB died only for an ENTIRE Mexican family .. WHO DID NOTHING...To get a billion dollar inherentence
It is not her job to take care of his wife or his home going. They didn’t even like her. As a man, it was up to him to have his affairs in order so his family would be taken care of. That’s not his daughter-in-law’s responsibility whatsoever. Kobe left an inheritance for her to take care of herself their children. When a man marries, he leaves his parents!
Kobe worked hard and acquired great wealth. He was incredibly blessed and brilliant with investing... HIS...money. In regards to his parents.. nobody knows what goes on behind closed doors. Or the relationship he had with them. It's really nobody's Business!! As long as his children are beautifully taken care of... it's definitely all that matters.
She wasn't even speaking to his parents, and you think she's going to pay for his funeral?! That was Kobe's job to take care of "his parents" !!! Vanessa put her own mother out! I think not!!!
Kobe said out his own mouth that he had to cut his family off financially and before he died he wasn't really dealing with them, so why should she take care of people that never liked her in the first place? Make it make sense.
