Vanessa Bryant posts adorable video of daughters celebrating first Easter since Kobe and Gianna's death
Vanessa Bryant began Easter celebrations a day early with her daughters Bianka, 3, and baby Capri. She took to Instagram to post a sweet video of Bianka trying to break open an Easter egg equipped with protective glasses and a hammer while her younger sister looked at her with curiosity, getting more interested every time Bianka took a crack at the egg.
At the beginning of the video, Bianka is seen trying her luck as she hammered away at the blue Easter egg decorated with pretty daisies but when the shell doesn't give in, Vanessa offers help and takes over. She breaks it open and says, "Oh look, there are treats inside — let’s see what’s in there."
Bianka is visibly excited as her mother begins to pull out whatever is inside the egg and Capri comes closer to take a look as well. Vanessa is then heard asking Capri, "Is that funny Koko Bean?" because the toddler has a huge smile on her face as she sees it all unfold. Vanessa captioned this video, "Easter Treats! Bianka & Capri. Thank you @jeffleatham."
Fans and followers of Vanessa have since commented on how adorable her daughters are and wished their family well. One fan wrote, "Omg the girls are so stinkin’ cute!!!" Another prayed for the family and commented, "Happy Easter to the Bryant girls. May God always shine a light on you from up above. Thinking of you always during Easter time. Praying for Kobe and Gianna as they celebrate eternal life up in heaven."
One of the fans observed, "Koko isn’t sure about that noise. BB was so excited. That little leg was jumping while she waited," while another added, "I seen Kobe & Gigi thru Capri!"
Kobe Bryant and his daughter Gianna lost their lives in a helicopter crash in January. Just over two months after his death shocked the world, the Los Angeles Laker legend headlined the list of players selected to the Basketball Hall of Fame, his sport's highest honor.
About this, Vanessa told ESPN, "It's an incredible honor and accomplishment, and we're extremely proud of him. Obviously we wish that he was here with us to celebrate, but it's definitely the peak of his career. And every accomplishment that he had as an athlete was a stepping stone to be here."
