Kobe Bryant's wife,
Vanessa, is rumored to be interested in
The Real Housewives of Orange County. What a dynamic that would be!
The Orange County cast is so far removed from the Atlanta cast that was dubbed the "Athletes Wives" show. To see
Vicki Gunvalson interact with
Vanessa would truly be exciting. Plus the OC could use another young cast member. We could see her filling the role
Jo de la Rosa played- the young, spoiled girl.
But we're not getting too excited because we can't believe Kobe Bryant would even remotely entertain this. He keeps to himself even in the Laker's locker room, so why would he open his family up to all of America particularly after Colorado happened. Although, we guess if Vanessa wants to do it, she could. We wouldn't have to see Kobe, a la how
Dina Manzo films without her
husband ever appearing even in the opening credits of the show.
Dina and Tommy are planning one of the most expensive weddings New Jersey has ever seen. Since Tommy and his brother Al own a high-end banquet facility, they know the biz and have enough cash to get anything they want. Bottom line... there's no budget for this grand affair.
