Kobe Bryant left a massive hole in the hearts of fans and admirers after his untimely demise in January 2020. However, that hole doesn’t feel as deep for anyone as it is for Vanessa Bryant.
Kobe left four daughters and his wife, Vanessa, behind after his passing. But Vanessa has been showing her own ‘Mamba Mentality’ by raising four young daughters alone.
The love for Kobe will never die for anyone, especially the Bryant family. To memorialize him, Vanessa and her eldest daughter Natalia went out to get tattoos. This also included tributes to Gianna ‘GiGi’ Bryant, who passed away with Kobe in the helicopter crash that took the lives of seven others.

Vanessa got a tattoo that says ‘Mambacita’ across her forearm, the affectionate nickname the world had given GiGi Bryant. Along with that, she got a tattoo across her shoulder which commemorates a message that Kobe had sent to Vanessa. Natalia’s tattoo wasn’t shown in detail, but she got one done around her fingers and one on her forearm.
