Khloe Kardashian reacted to Vanessa Bryant’s anniversary post for Kobe Bryant
The NBA world and the Bryant family lost Kobe Bryant and his daughter Gianna Maria-Onore Bryant on 26 January 2020. While their untimely death still hit the NBA world hard, Vanessa Bryant has recently celebrated 24th years of her marriage to the late Kobe. Vanessa took to her Instagram to share the heartfelt post. “#24. #Anniversary ❤️ @kobebryant ⛪️❤️ 4/18/01 🙏🏽,” she wrote on the platform, sharing a throwback photo of the duo.
Alongside several celebrities and popular NBA names, Khloe Kardashian left a series of loving emoticons in the comments, revealing her heartfelt nod to the eternal love.
Vanessa continues to receive support from close friends like Pau Gasol and his wife, Catherine. It’s been just over five years since the devastating helicopter crash that took the lives of Kobe, their daughter Gianna, and seven others. Every milestone since then has been a painful reminder of the void they left behind. Vanessa has been keeping their memories alive and has often been met with grace and warmth from her inner circle.
On their anniversary, Vanessa shared a nostalgic wedding photo from their 2001 ceremony in Dana Point, California— a simple gathering of just 12 guests. She looked nearly unrecognizable in the throwback. Adding to the emotion, Pau and Catherine Gasol sent her a stunning heart-shaped wreath of red roses, along with a message that read, “We love you, forever. Happy 24th Anniversary. XOXO P,C,E,M,J.”
Earlier this year, she and her daughters— Natalia, 22, Bianka, 8, and Capri, 5—joined the Gasols for a snowy family getaway. The trip included matching ski outfits and heartfelt memories that reminded everyone of the strength in chosen family.

Vanessa has also continued celebrating Kobe’s legacy in quiet, powerful ways— from tearful Super Bowl tributes to fun Dodgers game outings with her daughters. Through every post and moment, she reminds the world that while Kobe may be gone, the love they shared is still very much alive.
Vanessa also runs The Mamba and Mambacita Sports Foundation which supports underserved athletes honoring the memory of Bryant and Gianna. "Kob and I used to live in Palisades when we first got married (sadly, that home was on the street where the initial fire started)," Vanessa previously shared on Instagram. "We have so many beautiful memories from living in L.A. There are no words to make all the loss and devastation any better. My heart and prayers for out to everyone in LA who are affected by the fires," she added at the time when devastating wildfire hit California in the beginning of 2025.
