Vanessa Bryant Got Tattoo Tributes To Kobe & Gigi And The Video Of It Will Make You Llorar

Quite a lot has happened in the five months since NBA star Kobe Bryant and his daughter, Gigi passed away in a fatal helicopter crash that killed all nine people on board. And while many of us have turned our attention to pressing issues like the Black Lives Movement and the COVID-19 pandemic, family members left in the wake of the accident are still mourning the deaths of their loved ones.

Still determined to keep the memory of her husband and daughter alive, Kobe’s wife Vaness Bryant has remained steadfast in honoring their lives.

Last week, Bryant took to Instagram to reveal she’d made the decision to honor her husband and daughter with two new tattoos.

“Shoutout to @nikkohurtado for coming over and helping me get my Gigi’s sweet message transferred on me,” she wrote in a caption to her Instagram page featuring a video of her new tattoo honoring her daughter. The details of the tattoo aren’t totally visible but in the comments, Bryant revealed that the tattoo features her late daughter’s handwriting. “So happy I can see my Gigi’s handwriting everyday ❤️ #mambacita,” she replied.

Bryant also shared a video of herself receiving another tattoo, this time for Kobe.

In a post to her Instagram page, Bryant shared another video of herself. This time the video revealed that she was actively receiving a shoulder tattoo that is meant to honor her husband.

“I wanted my boo boo’s @kobebryant sweet message transferred on me,” Bryant explained in the caption of the photo.

The tattoos were done by artist Nikko Hurtado who hinted in a reply to Vanessa’s images that there might be more to come in the future.

“Anytime for you guys! All love! I hope you guys are okay. Let’s do a sleeve now!,” Hurtado replied to her post.

It is unknown whether Bryant will share the final results of her tattoo but there’s no doubt both are meaningful and touching.
