Vanessa Bryant found a love letter addressed to her from her late husband, Kobe Bryant, one day before her birthday on May 5, according to a recently published article.


Love Letter from Kobe Surpised Vanessa

Vanessa Bryant did not expect to read one more love letter from Kobe. It has been nearly five months since Kobe Bryant and her daughter died due to a tragic helicopter crash that killed several other persons as well on January 26 at Calabasas, California.  

It was the very first time that Vanessa celebrated her 38th birthday without Kobe and Gigi. If they were there on that day, it could be happier. Until today, the Bryant family still mourn for their loss. An incident they never expected to happen in their lives.

One day before Vanessa's birthday, she found a love letter from Kobe but decided not to open it. On her Instagram post, she wrote:

"Yesterday I found an envelope labeled To The Love of my Life. From, Tu Papi, I waited to open one more letter on my birthday. It gave me something to look forward to today. The irony is that Kobe had a photo of me drawn with an Angel holding me up by an artist on the cover. Missing the Love of my Life and my sweet little Mamacita- my fellow Taurus. Grateful to wake up to my 3 sweet girls today. Wish we were all together."


Moreover, Vanessa opted not to share on her Instagram account the content of Kobe's letter for her, but one thing is just for sure, it reminds her how much Kobe loves her even after his death. Additionally, you can imagine how emotional her experience was while reading the love letter.

Kobe and Vanessa got married in 2001, and they could have celebrated their 19th wedding anniversary last month. On their wedding anniversary, she kissed the photo of Kobe saying, "My king, my heart, my best friend. Happy 19th wedding anniversary, baby. I miss you so much. I wish you were here to hold me in your arms. I love you." 

It can be recounted from a previous article by Latin Post that Vanessa is a very private person and keeps away from the spotlight.


Vanessa's Tribute to Her late Daughter Gianna

Meanwhile, on May 1 or just days before Vanessa's birthday was the natal day of Gianna. Gigi was supposed to turn 14 years old. Vanessa paid tribute to her daughter by asking her friends, family, and fans to wear the favorite color of Gianna, red.

On her Instagram post, she wrote: "Consider wearing red, caption an act of kindness or show how you will play Gigi's way since she always gave everything she did her all and led with kindness."

She also asked fans to use the hashtag #PlayGigisWay to join in celebrating her daughter while also sharing an image of a special bracelet with her daughter's nickname on it.

She also added, "We are in the process of making this bracelet available for proceeds to benefit our Mamba and Mambacita foundation. I will update you with a post when we have them available for purchase)."
