It's been more than a year since Vanessa Bryant suffered an unimaginable tragedy - the loss of her husband Kobe and their 13-year-old daughter Gianna in a helicopter crash.
And now the 38-year-old widow has shared a snap of her latest tattoo which commemorates the pair.
She showcased her new ink - the word "Mambacita" - explaining it was the nickname given to Gianna that was inspired by her dad's nickname "Black Mamba".
Vanessa also shared a video of her 18-year-old daughter Natalia getting a wrist tattoo as well as the word "muse" on the inside of her middle finger.
The finger tattoo was in reference to Kobe's 2015 documentary with the same title.
Vanessa's tattoo is her latest inked tribute to her late husband and their daughter.
Shortly after the tragic loss, she had Kobe's name tattooed alongside the rest of her children's names on the outside of her foot.
Kobe’s sister, Sharia Washington, has also had a tattoo created on her shoulder. Her design shows an infinity-symbol black mamba incorporating both Kobe and Gianna’s jersey numbers.
Earlier this month, Vanessa revealed how Kobe would have been so proud of Natalia after she signed her first modelling contract with IMG agency.
She took to Instagram to post a photo of her daughter and wrote alongside it: "My baby (with makeup). #grown @nataliabryant.
"Daddy would be so happy that you’re pursuing your modelling career now that you’re 18.
"You’re beautiful inside and out. Beautiful with makeup and without makeup. We love you."
Vanessa married the former LA Lakers basketball star in 2001 and the pair also have two other children: Bianka, four, and Capri, one.
Kobe and Gianna both tragically lost their life along with seven other people when the helicopter they were travelling in to a youth basketball tournament crashed in Calabasas, LA on January 26, 2020
