Vanessa Bryant posts heartbreaking message over deaths of Kobe and Gigi in helicopter crash

Vanessa, who married Kobe, one of basketball's greatest-ever players, in 2001, has three other daughters and said she understood the need to be strong to help them cope with grief.

"I'm so mad. She had so much life to live. Then I realise I need to be strong and be here for my three daughters," she said."Mad I'm not with Kobe and Gigi but thankful I'm here with Natalia, Bianka and Capri. I know what I'm feeling is normal. It's part of the grieving process." Acknowledging grief is apart of everyday life, she added:"I just wanted to share in case there's anyone out there that's experienced a loss like this."Her message finished with an emotional tribute:"God I wish they were here and this nightmare would be over. Praying for all of the victims of this horrible tragedy. Please continue to pray for all."

Last week, she announced a"celebration of life" will be held at the Staples Center in Los Angeles later this month to honour her late husband and Gianna. Kobe Bryant, a five-time NBA title winner and 18-time All-Star, is also set to be honoured at the upcoming NBA All-Star Game this weekend in Chicago, with a number of initiatives planned.

Just let the Lord Rest their souls in peace Amen
