Vanessa Bryant Opens Up About Her Struggle with Grief: ‘My Brain Refuses to Accept That Both Kobe and Gigi Are Gone’

Vanessa Bryant took to Instagram to open up a bit about her grieving process in dealing with the loss of Kobe and Gigi Bryant.

She says her “brain refuses to accept” both her husband of 18 years and 13-year-old daughter are gone.

“I’ve been reluctant to put my feelings into words. My brain refuses to accept that both Kobe and Gigi are gone. I can’t process both at the same time. It’s like I’m trying to process Kobe being gone but my body refuses to accept my Gigi will never come back to me. It feels wrong. Why should I be able to wake up another day when my baby girl isn’t being able to have that opportunity?! I’m so mad. She had so much life to live.”

Our hearts truly break for her. We can’t begin to imagine how difficult this must be. See her post below.
