In the SportsCenter segment on ESPN - sports channel - Elle said she met Bryant while pregnant and expecting a girl. She said that after telling the NBA legend that she was expecting a girl, he responded, "You have to be grateful to have been given this gift because the girls are amazing."
Duncan asked Bryant how he and his wife would feel if they became parents of a girl again. "I would like five more girls if the opportunity comes. I'm a father of daughters. "
