Share FacebookTwitterPinterestLinkedinWhatsappTelegramEmail 1.9K Beyoncé is the latest celebrity to lend her voice to the heartbroken community of fans around the world sending their sincerest love, support and condolences to the Bryant family amid their new difficult reality. Kobe and his 13-year-old daughter Gianna “Gigi” Maria-Onore Bryant were among the nine people who tragically passed away in a fatal helicopter crash in Calabasas on Sunday (Jan. 26). It’s an unfortunate reality that many supporters and those who knew them most intimately have struggled to accept since the tragedy happened three days ago. In moving tributes to the global NBA icon and his daughter, Beyoncé took to social media on Wednesday (Jan. 29) where she shared a series of photographs as an ode to Kobe’s love for his wife, Vanessa, and their other daughters Natalia, 17, Bianka, 3, and seven-month-old, Capri. One post was a sweet picture of Kobe and Gigi courtside at a basketball game. Kobe can be seen kissing his daughter on her head, who has a bright smile on her face. It’s a tender snapshot, considering Gigi was a promising talent in her own respect who was making a name for herself as she followed in her father’s footsteps with dreams to play in the WNBA.
