On a poignant Father's Day, Kobe Bryant's family marked a bittersweet milestone: the first birthday of his youngest daughter, Capri.
Capri turned one on June 21, 2020, just six months after her father's untimely death in a helicopter crash on January 26, 2020.
Her mother, Vanessa Bryant, took to social media to express her love and gratitude, writing:
‘Happy 1st Birthday Capri! Mommy, Daddy, Nani, Gigi and BB love you SO much!!! God Bless you sweet princess. ❤️ Capri Kobe Bryant a.k.a. “Koko-Bean” named after her dearly missed daddy, Kobe Bean Bryant ❤️We miss you SO much Gigi and Daddy.’
The helicopter crash that took Kobe's life also claimed the life of his 13-year-old daughter, Gianna 'Gigi' Bryant.
Below are photos of Kobe enjoying time with his family, including his youngest daughter Capri.
