Vanessa Bryant says that Evan Rachel Wood calling her late
husband Kobe Bryant a “rapist” the day he died is “vile” and
“disturbing.”

Hours after Kobe’s death on Jan. 26, 2020, the “Westworld”
actress, 33, tweeted, “What has happened is tragic. I am
heartbroken for Kobe’s family. He was a sports hero. He was also
a rapist. And all of these truths can exist simultaneously.”

Vanessa, 38, posted on Saturday to her Instagram Story that the
tweet was just coming to her attention over a year later.

“Your false, insensitive, defamatory and slanderous tweet on
1/26/20 is vile and disturbing to say the least,” the NBA
player’s widow wrote over a screenshot of the original tweet.
“Behavior like this is part of the reason why innocent black men
go to jail for crimes they didn’t commit. An accusation doesn’t
make someone guilty.”

“YOU DON’T KNOW THE FACTS OF THE CASE,” she added. Vanessa sent
the same message to film producer Abigail Disney, who tweeted at
the time, “The man was a rapist. Deal with it.”

Kobe was accused of sexual assault in 2003 by a 19-year-old
hotel employee in Colorado. Prosecutors dropped the charges
after the accuser declined to testify. She later brought a civil
case against the Los Angeles Laker, which was settled out of
court in 2005.

Wood’s tweet immediately sparked backlash in 2020, with fans
coming to Kobe’s defense. Actress Kyla Pratt responded that she
admired Wood’s work, but “this tweet? How f–king dare you?”

Vanessa posted and thanked Pratt for her response to Wood on
Saturday.

A rep for Wood did not immediately return our request for
comment.

Earlier this month, Wood named her alleged abuser as ex-fiancé
Marilyn Manson.

“He started grooming me when I was a teenager and horrifically
abused me for years,” she claimed. “I was brainwashed and
manipulated into submission. I am done living in fear of
retaliation, slander, or blackmail. I am here to expose this
dangerous man and call out the many industries that have enabled
him, before he ruins any more lives. I stand with the many
victims who will no longer be silent.”

Following several allegations from Wood and other women, Manson
— who has vehemently denied all accusations — was dropped by his
record label and longtime manager.

“Obviously, my art and my life have long been magnets for
controversy, but these recent claims about me are horrible
distortions of reality,” Manson, 52, wrote in a statement. “My
intimate relationships have always been consensual with like-
minded partners. Regardless of how — and why — others are now
choosing to misrepresent the past, that is the truth.”
