Wife of Kobe Bryant, Vanessa Bryant has spoke for the first time since the tragic passing of her Partner. Vanessa took to Instagram to mourn the loss of both her Husband and Daughter in a Helicopter crash.

Even though the majority of the Sporting world, friends and even Presidents have paid their respects to the Late Great Kobe Bryant, but his long-time Wife hadn't yet.

Vanessa and Kobe met in November 1999 when Kobe was going through his unsuccessful attempt to become a Rapper. With Vanessa as a backup dancer for the same Music Label, the two met and were engaged by May 2000.

The two were married a year later and were given four children from 2003 to 2019, all Daughters with Natalia, Gianna, Bianka and Capri being born in 2003, 2006, 2016 and 2019 respectively.

However, Vanessa has broken her well-deserved silence on the subject with a post on Instagram, dedicating the post to her lost Husband and Daughter, as well as the other members of the tragic Helicopter crash.

Vanessa also urged people to donate for the Bryant Family's two charities.

Firstly, the Mamba Sports Foundation which is "To provide funding for underserved athletes to enable participation in school or league sports" is ran by the Bryant family and helps kids in Southern California learn via Sports.

and the new charity set up by Vanessa called MambaOnThree, which was:

"Created to honor Team Mamba's mantra, "Mamba on Three." It's with that customary chant for togetherness, sisterhood and the ability to take on every challenge that this Fund was named.


The MambaOnThree Fund exists to honor and support loved ones of the seven other victims involved in the tragedy that occurred on January 26, 2020. All donations to the Fund will be directed to their families."
