Vanessa Bryant has been the picture of resilience and strength following the tragic loss of her husband, Kobe Bryant and their 13 year old daughter, Gianna. However, that does not mean at all that she does not miss them a lot.
As you probably know, the basketball player and his and Vanessa’s second-born daughter passed away in a helicopter crash that killed seven others as well.
Earlier today, the mourning Vanessa took to social media to post a soul crushing clip in which the late NBA star was discussing the joy of coaching his daughter since Gianna had followed into his footsteps.
‘She started out playing soccer, which is one of my favorite sports as well. But then when she asked about learning the game of basketball, I started teaching her piece by piece, and she started enjoying it and loving it and now she plays every day. It’s been a joy to watch her grow and to be there everyday for that process. Her temperament is a lot like mine. She’s extremely competitive, very fiery, and backs down from no challenge,’ Kobe says in the video.
He goes on to gush over the teen girl, saying that ‘She’s a good mix of me and good mix of her mama, so that makes her even more competitive than I am.’
Vanessa also shared a sweet but heartbreaking pic featuring the whole family.
Vanessa also previously highlighted the special bond Gianna and her dad had, while at their memorial service last month.

‘My baby girl, Gianna Bryant, is an amazingly sweet and gentle soul. She was always thoughtful. She would always kiss me goodnight and kiss me good morning… She was daddy’s girl but I know she loved mama, and she would always show me and tell me how much she loved me. She was one of my very best friends,’ she emotionally said at the time.
