It has been a while since Kobe Bryant’s fateful crash in 2020. Frankly, there are still times when it feels like it was nothing more than a horrible nightmare far in the rare view window, and that the Lakers legend is still with us. However, as bad as 2020 was, in more ways than one, it was, in fact, real. Very, very real.

That said, we are looking at better times here, where we can look back at the older times, and smile as we think about the joy they brought us. And none of the people on this planet hold that philosophy true to their heart, more than the family of Kobe Bryant, through whom he lives vicariously.
Things have been beyond hard for Natalia and Vanessa Bryant, however, they have found the strength to carry on, and we couldn’t be any more proud of them than we are already. And to demonstrate exactly that strength, both of them recently had some massively heartfelt messages for the departed Kobe, something you’re going to want to see below.
What was Vanessa Bryant’s message for Kobe Bryant?
The dear love of Kobe Bryant’s, Vanessa likely has so much to say to her husband, including likely what are a few playful insults for leaving her so soon, just as his retirement had begun. However, on the day of their 22nd anniversary, she just couldn’t hide her love for him to any degree. So, she professed in the only way she knew how. Take a look below to see what she did.

“Happy anniversary baby. I love you (Kobe Bryant) @kobebryant *heart emoji*”
A short but incredibly heartfelt message. And one we very much hope Kobe Bryant got up there, no matter what he is doing up there right now.
What was Natalia’s message?
Natalia, the daughter of Kobe Bryant had a similarly short message for her dear parents, which she put up on her Instagram story, as you can see in the tweet right here.

Like Vanessa, Natalia Bryant likely has far too many things to say to her father, too many questions, and so on. And more than anything else, we are proud of both of these strong women’s bravery and ability to keep moving forward.
