Natalia Bryant, the eldest daughter of the late American basketball great Kobe Bryant, has been given a restraining order against Dwayne Kemp, 32, whom she claims stalked her.

According to Bleacher Report on Friday, Natalia requested a restraining order against Kemp on Monday.

In 2020, Kemp allegedly began stalking Bryant on social media. He sent her messages that suggested they were dating, such as “kissing faces and hearts,” and “threatened to make unwelcome in-person contact with her,” according to Bryant’s lawsuit.

The 19-year-old girl, however, breathed a sigh of relief when, two days after filing, a court issued her restraining order.

Kemp will have to keep a 200-yard distance between herself and “Bryant, her home, her workplace, her school, her vehicle, and the USC campus.”

According to Natalia, Kemp allegedly sent her a photo of her deceased father in July 2021 along with the note, “Thankful For Him Birthing You, Hopefully We Can Birth Him… ‘Kobe.’”

“She doesn’t need something like this in light of all the pain that she’s already been through with the awful loss of her father,” Lou Shapiro, Natalia’s attorney, said.

“Unfortunately, celebrities with well-known last names who are in the public eye are more prone to experience harassment like this.”

Kemp allegedly made two attempts to find Bryant on the USC campus, the most recent being in the first few days of November. Both the USC campus police and the Los Angeles Police Department backed Bryant in her pursuit for a restraining order.

Kemp has four delinquent convictions or arrests on his record, and he frequently posts on social media about the weapons and gear he wants to buy.
