Looking at pics and videos of Kobe Bryant and wife Vanessa's two youngest babies, Bianka and Capri, gives us so many mixed emotions. On the one hand, it's undeniable how cute and sweet the two little ones are, but on the other, it's hard to accept that they will grow up without their dad by their side. The late basketball star and his wife welcomed four kids together, starting with Natalia in January 2003 and Gianna in May 2006 early on in their marriage.
They were later joined by the adorable Bianka in December 2016 and Capri in June 2019. The last two babies arrived toward the end of their dad's basketball career, and he got to enjoy closely watching Bianka grow for the past three years as well as the first months of Capri's life before he and daughter Gigi lost their lives in a helicopter accident in January 2020.
