Vanessa Bryant just shared a moving picture of her eldest daughter, Natalia, on Instagram.

Ahead of her winter formal dance, Vanessa brought Natalia to late husband Kobe and daughter Gianna‘s mural, in Los Angeles to get a picture with Natalia’s dad and sister.

“❤️my babies. Natalia. #winterformal,” Vanessa captured the pic, where Natalia wears a cute blue and white patterned dress for the dance.

Last month, Vanessa made a moving speech and Kobe and Gianna‘s memorial at Staples Center.

“God knew they couldn’t be on this Earth without each other. He had to bring them home to heaven together…Kobe, take care of our Gigi. I’ve got Natalia, Bianka and Capri. We’re still the best team,” Vanessa concluded her speech.

Kobe and Gianna were killed in a helicopter crash in late January.

Over the weekend, Vanessa Bryant released a statement responding to the allegations that the Los Angeles County sheriff’s deputies shared photos from the crash scene where her husband Kobe Bryant, daughter Gigi, and 7 others died in a helicopter accident.

“A thorough investigation will be conducted by the department, with the No. 1 priority of protecting the dignity and privacy of the victims and their families,” the department added in a statement (via the LA Times).

Our continued thoughts are with Vanessa and the Bryant family during this time.

Vanessa Bryant is speaking out about a painful ongoing investigation.

In a statement from her legal counsel, Gary C. Robb on Sunday (March 1), Vanessa addressed ongoing allegations of deputies from the Lost Hills Los Angele County Sheriff’s Department and Los Angeles County Fire Department spreading photos from the helicopter crash site where her husband, Kobe Bryant, and daughter, Gianna Bryant, died.

“Our client, Vanessa Bryant, is absolutely devastated by allegations that deputies from the Lost Hills Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department and Los Angeles County Fire Department publicly disseminated photos from the helicopter crash site. Mrs. Bryant personally went to the Sheriff’s office on January 26th and requested that the area be designated a no-fly zone and protected from photographers. This was of critical importance to her as she desired to protect the dignity of all the victims, and their families. At that time, Sheriff Alex Villanueva assured us all measures would be put in place to protect the families’ privacy, and it is our understanding that he has worked hard to honor those requests,” the statement reads.

“First responders should be trustworthy. It is inexcusable and deplorable that some deputies from the Lost Hills Sheriff’s substation, other surrounding substations and LAFD would allegedly breach their duty. This is an unspeakable violation of human decency, respect, and of the privacy rights of the victims and their families. We are demanding that those responsible for these alleged actions face the harshest possible discipline, and that their identities be brought to light, to ensure that the photos are not further disseminated. We are requesting an Internal Affairs investigation of these alleged incidents. Mrs. Bryant is grateful to the individual who filed an online complaint exposing these acts of injustice, and for the choice to protect human dignity,” the statement went on to read.

“We ask that anyone else who has information as to the facts underlying these alleged grievous and shameful incidents contact our office at 816–474-8080 or email via www.robbrobb.com.”

Vanessa Bryant gave a heartbreaking speech in tribute to her late husband Kobe Bryant and daughter Gianna, 13, at their celebration of life ceremony earlier this week.

We’re now learning that the speech was very tentative and she was not sure she would be giving the speech that day.

“Vanessa Bryant‘s speech was always tentative until the very last minute,” a source told E! News. “She, of course, was prepared with her speech either way, but keeping her tentative was a matter of how emotional she was and how comfortable she felt in that moment to make the speech. Nobody knew if she was going to do it until [Jimmy Kimmel] actually announced her.”
