NBA icon Kobe Bryant has left a legacy of eminence. He always preached about the importance of hard work over talent, the mantra Kobe relayed not just for athletes but for every denizen of life. The agility and aggression Kobe Bryant exhibited on the court are far distinct from his off-court temperament, though. Ever since his passing, prominent personalities have become a source of strength for Bryant’s family. Recently, Kobe’s Wife Vanessa was all luminous as she was back with her biggest support system.
Let’s dive deeper into the close bond shared by Vanessa and a 41-year-old TV personality.

The legacy of Kobe Bryant lives on
Kobe Bryant And Vanessa didn’t have the easiest of paths to a joyous marriage. Though the couple announced separation in 2011, they managed to survive the allegations against Kobe and reunited in 2013. The couple has 4 beautiful daughters: Natalia, Gianna, Bianka, and Capri. Unfortunately, Gianna and Kobe passed away in a fatal helicopter crash.
In the loving memory of Kobe and Gigi, Vanessa established the non-profit “Mamba and Mambacita Foundation” to help underprivileged athletes. She was involved in a legal dispute with Nike as well regarding the continuation of her husband’s iconic sneaker line.
