Quote:
On Wednesday, 37-year-old Vanessa changed her Instagram profile picture to a touching photo of Kobe and Gianna embracing. In the photo, Kobe looks down lovingly at his second eldest child as she reaches her arms up to him.


Quote:
"She has been surrounded by her family and friends but she feels almost numb to everything," the source continued. "She is thankful for the outpouring of love she and her family have received and will respond when she’s ready. Right now she’s taking time to be with her girls."

no matter how sad we are, it is nothing compare to what Vanessa is going thru. i can't even put myself in her shoes.
i am happy she is secured financially for life as well as Kobe's kids, but i don't know if she will ever get over this.

Especially for Vanessa, considering she was a fairly private individual. I imagine the media is going to be hounding her for a public interview at some point, which she may end up giving with a prominent interviewer. She's obviously not obligated to do anything. But it's just terribly sad for the entire family, the little one's...and I can't help but feel awful for Natalia, who was self described as Daddy's girl. She's never going to be the same. The entire family is never going to be same. This is devastating for us, imagine what it feels like for them.

I've been consuming a lot of stuff including ex-colleague testimonials, helicopter/aviation jargon, and fan tributes/experiences. If you want to advance your grieving, and do not want to hit emotional rock bottom, do not spend any amount of time scrolling Vanessa's IG account which gives you the first glimpse into their blissful, perfect lives as of last week.

I have a daughter a little bit older than Gianna. It is gut wrenching to think about as that is what I try and do with my daughter as much as possible. Teach her, and enjoy our lives together.

Losing a child and a spouse at the same time in the blink of an eye is really tough.

Losing a daughter, never.

And Vanessa's still so young. It's just a horrible situation. I can already feel people judging her if she seeks male companionship in the future. Or if she just is out with a male friend etc... I just pray for her and those girls.

I dunno. I don't remember history judging Jackie Kennedy for dating men after JFK

What was Twitter like back then by the way? In all seriousness though, with Twitter and Instagram and TMZ, all these haters get such a voice.
