Vanessa Bryant took to Instagram to reveal two poignant new tattoos she got in February to honor her late husband Kobe Bryant and daughter Gianna.
In the posts, Vanessa is seen getting a design dedicated to Gianna on her wrist and Kobe on her neck. Vanessa hasn’t revealed exactly what they say just yet, but she calls them both a “sweet message.”

“I wanted my boo boo’s @kobebryant sweet message transferred on me,” Vanessa captioned a video of herself getting the tattoo with the song “Can’t Take My Eyes Off Of You” by Lauryn Hill playing in the background.
She shared another video showing her followers a quick glance at the wrist tattoo featuring “Gigi’s handwriting.” The song “Sky Walker” by Miguel played in the background of the video.
Bryant hired celebrity tattoo artist Nikko Hurtado to bring her vision to life for the special designs. Hurtado has inked many other celebrities including Rhianna, Rita Ora, and Ruby Rose, among others.
Hurtado reposted Vanessa’s videos to his own Instagram feed as well. In the caption, he wrote, “Truly honored to give you something to keep with you my friend.”
