Vanessa shared several Valentine's Day tributes to Kobe, who died in a helicopter crash back in January 2020, which also claimed the lives of him and Vanessa's daughter Gianna, 13, and seven others.
Alongside a throwback photo of herself and Kobe celebrating Valentine's Day, Vanessa wrote, "Happy Valentine's Day Boo-Boo. I love you for now, forever and for always. ❤️ @kobebryant #TiAmo."
She went on to share another sweet shot of herself and Kobe. The pic, which Vanessa said was from 2000, featured Kobe holding a bouquet of red roses as he greeted Vanessa, who was sitting in the driver's seat of a white car.
"Took me back to the day I gave @kobebryant roses when I picked up from the airport. #LA❤️" Vanessa captioned the post.
