Vanessa Bryant Speaks at A Celebration of Life for Kobe and Gianna Bryant

“God knew they couldn’t be on this earth without each other”.

broke me when she said “babe take care of our gigi”

losing a child is devastating, losing a spouse is devastating, losing both at the same time is absolutely unbearable!!

“God knew, they couldn't be on this earth without each other” 😭

This woman is too strong. I can't even imagine being in that situation. My prayers go to their family.

Vanessa literally went from living a dream to living a nightmare overnight so sad and no amount of money can fix it or make it better or easier

Gianna was only 13 years old, no parent should ever have to bury a child, never mind a husband. May they both rest in peace knowing that they are still in our hearts ♥️

I am not even a basketball fan but I rewatch this speech every couple of months and it gets me every time. What a poignant and loving tribute. I can feel Vanessa’s strength, loss and love for Gigi and Kobe. I can’t believe she was able to get up and give this speech.

The sad thing is the youngest baby won’t remember her daddy 😢

I can’t imagine her pain. She’s so strong.

After four years am still crying watching this ❤ Rip 🪦 Kobe and Gigi

I know people question how she was able to do this but honestly I think her strength comes from the fact that they died together. I think knowing they had each other brings her some comfort. Had she just lost one I think it would have been even harder knowing they were alone. I am envious of her strength. No way could I ever be that strong.

I bet Kobe and Gigi was standing by her side as giving the speech

the fact that she controlled herself and spoke about her husbands and daughters death for almost 20 minutes....😭 she is sucha strong woman

even after 2 years, i’m still crying watching it. it’s hard. RIP Kobe and Gigi, you are and will forever be missed.

It’s 2024 but it’s still heart breaking watching this💔

it’s been almost a year since he died and i’m still not over it

Her daughter, Natalia, had a panic/asthma attack when she heard the news of her father's and sister's passing. Jesus I can't imagine a life without my sister or father. I pray so hard for the Bryant women 💔💙

@21:10 you can see the movement of emotions in the audience when she says “God knew they couldn’t be without each other” Kobe was a legend that everyone loved even if you didn’t watch basketball 🙌

when she said “my baby girl” you can tell how much pain she felt. i cannot imagine losing the 2 people i loved the most in one day and speak to the whole world and still take care of her other kids and natalia must feel so much pain. i feel so incredibly bad for them..i’m here almost 2 years later and i’m still in pain and i know the kids and her feel so much more pain. my respect goes out to them. they didn’t deserve that and no matter how arrogant kobe would’ve been at times, he was still an amazing father and gianna was such a kind soul. she sounded like such a good daughter who would always be respectful and responsible. all the kids are such good kids.. rip..yall were worth so much. i miss y’all i lobe yall and i’d do anything for y’all to come back.. :((( rip
