Kobe Rape Accuser Is Pregnant!

KOBE BRYANT'S rape accuser, Katelyn Faber, is pregnant, a family insider tells GLOBE in a world exclusive. And Faber's pregnancy may have played a key part in her decision to tell prosecutors she couldn't face a trial in which her sex life would be paraded before a jury, says a source who knows her well.

The unmarried 20-year-old learned she was pregnant with her lover's baby the day before prosecutors announced they were dropping their costly, high-profile case against the NBA superstar, the family insider claims. After 14 months of legal fireworks, prosecutors bowed out Sept. 1, just days before the trial was set to begin. GLOBE's highly reliable source of the latest blockbuster revelation in the Kobe saga agreed to submit to a polygraph examination and passed with flying colors.

'Unexpected' - At least two months pregnant, Faber is due around April, says the insider. She learned about the baby accidentally after undergoing emergency room tests for abdominal pains, the insider adds. The father is believed to be a man Faber met at a Florida rehab facility, where she was being treated for cocaine addiction, says the source. Bryant's accuser believes she has kicked the habit and is now clean and in love, say close sources.

"Katelyn is really looking forward to becoming a mom," says the insider. "The pregnancy was completely unexpected, but she says she wants to go ahead with it anyway." At times, she's apprehensive about the whole thing and is maybe a little scared at the prospect because she's so young and inexperienced. "But she says she's determined to keep the child. At this point in her life and with everything that's been going on with her, she wants stability more than anything in the world. She thinks that having a family will give her the stability she needs."
