Vanessa Bryant Expresses Grief Over Kobe & Gianna In Latest Instagram Post

Vanessa Bryant, widow of Kobe Bryant, used her Instagam account to express her experiences of grief and loss.

Kobe and Gianna Bryant died during a helicopter accident Jan. 26 in Calabasas, California on their way from Orange County to a basketball game.

“My brain refuses to accept that both Kobe and Gigi are gone. I can’t process both at the same time. It’s like I’m trying to process Kobe being gone but my body refuses to accept that my Gigi will never come back to me,” she writes.

She offers glimpses into the pain of her loss, but realizes that she must remain strong for her three surviving daughters, Capri, Bianka and Natalia.

Vanessa has used the social media platform in the past to post photos from a Jersey Retirement ceremony held for daughter, Gianna Bryant, at her school and to thank the public for their support and prayers. In addition, she has used her Instagram to announce the memorial for Kobe and Gianna which will be held February 24, 2020 at Staples Center in Los Angeles, California.
