Vanessa Bryant Celebrates Daughter Bianka’s 4th Birthday
Vanessa Bryant celebrated the life of daughter Bianka, who turned 4 on Saturday (Dec. 5). The mother-of-four shared a heartfelt tribute on behalf of the entire Bryant family, including her late husband Kobe Byant and daughter Gianna, both of whom were killed along with seven others in January in a helicopter crash.
“Happy 4th Birthday Bianka! We love you sooooooo much. You bring so much sunshine to our days,” Vanessa wrote on social media according to PEOPLE magazine. “God bless you baby girl. Love, Mommy, Daddy, Nani, Gigi and Koko.”
Bryant hosted a Cinderella themed birthday bash for Bianka, celebrating with friends, including Ciara and Lala Anthony.
“Celebrating The Birthday Princess BB’s 4th Birthday! We love you so much,” Ciara wrote on her Instagram. “What a magically fun day!”
“Celebrating BB’s birthday today with Vanessa Bryant & Ciara,” Anthony captioned on her IG. “Beautiful Cinderella party for a beautiful princess.”
Natalia Bryant also wrote a special birthday wish to her little sister.
The celebration occurred just one week after Bryant honored her husband on the 21st anniversary of the day they met. "Love at first sight 11/27/99 #21," she wrote on Instagram. Vanessa and Kobe Bryant tied the knot two years later.
