Although they have announced a separation, Kobe Bryant and estranged wife Vanessa were seen together for their kids. The soon-to-be-exes attended a Christmas recital at their daughters' school on Friday, December 16 morning.

According to TMZ, Kobe and Vanessa looked like every other normal couple, staying on each other's side during the show and leaving the place together in the same car. However, while Vanessa appeared to be in a very good mood, chatting with friends and having a good time, Kobe reportedly looked "somber" and spoke to no one.

It was rumored that the divorce was initiated by Vanessa who found out that her basketball player husband has cheated on her again. Kobe allegedly was trying to win back her heart but Vanessa would not take the chance again. She cited "irreconcilable differences" as the reason of the split in the divorce papers.

Kober has moved out of their Newport Coast mansion that will go to Vanessa once the divorce is made official. As part of the settlement, Kobe agreed to give up the property. Since they did not sign a pre-nup, Vanessa is entitled to half of his assets that he earned since they got married in 2001.
