A huge congrats is in order for retired NBA star Kobe Bryant and his wife Vanessa!

The two are preparing to welcome their third child together. Vanessa and Kobe took to Instagram to reveal that she is pregnant. This will be the third daughter for the couple as they have two older girls.

He shared a photo of onesie that gives Kobe’s nickname The Great Mamba a shoutout and reads, “Baby Mamba.”

It’s paired with a sparkly red bow and a pair of red sneakers.

Kobe added the caption, “Beyond blessed and excited to share that we are expecting our third baby girl!!! #Blessed #BabyMamba #Thankful”

  This is definitely a good time for the couple, who also celebrated their 15 year wedding anniversary earlier this year. Kobe shared a photo of the two together with the caption, “Just finished celebrating my 20 year career. It’s a blessing to now celebrate 15 years of marriage today! I love you mama per sempre #15yearanniversary”


A baby Mamba is definitely good news for the family as Kobe opened up about expanding their clan when he spoke to Hip Hollywood just before he announced his retirement last year.

“We’ve talked about it a little bit,” he said of him and his wife. “We love our girls so much and it’s hard because you’re so busy, it’s like it’s not enough time during the day.”

Well they definitely have had more time since his last game on April 3. See his comments below.

Congratulations to the couple!
