Vanessa Bryant seemingly hit back at recent rumors that she is pregnant.
Taking to her Instagram Story on Sunday, the widow of late NBA superstar Kobe Bryant channeled Rihanna by sharing a meme of the singer flipping her middle finger while carrying a drink.
“Me protecting my peace, not pregnant & having fun all summer,” the caption read.
Vanessa reposted another meme of Rihanna that read, “I’m not mean, I’m just not the one.”
Her posts came amid baseless online rumors that she could be pregnant with her fifth baby, five years after Kobe’s tragic death.
There was no confirmation or validity to the rumors, which many online seemingly ran with.
Kobe was one of nine people killed in a helicopter crash in Calabasas, Calif., on Jan. 26, 2020. The tragedy also took the life of his and Vanessa’s 13-year-old daughter, Gianna “Gigi” Bryant.
The Lakers legend was 41 years old.
Vanessa, 43, has three other daughters with Kobe: Natalia, 22, Bianka, 8, and Capri, 5.
Vanessa hasn’t publicly dated anyone since Kobe’s death.
Kobe and Vanessa married in April 2001.
The brunette beauty commemorated what would have been their 24th wedding anniversary on April 18 by posting a past red carpet photo of the couple.
Last year, Vanessa posted a touching tribute to Kobe on what would have been her husband’s 46th birthday on Aug. 23.
“I love you for now, forever & for always. ❤️,” she wrote at the time, including a photo of her kissing the side of his cheek.
Vanessa announced the launch of the Gianna Bryant Scholarship Award on May 2, which would have been Gianna’s 19th birthday.
Gigi, who would’ve been a college freshman this year, yearned to play basketball for the UConn women’s basketball team.
In January 2020, the Huskies honored Gigi before one of their games following the tragic helicopter crash.
