Vanessa Bryant Makes Personal Announcement on Tuesday

On Tuesday, she announced one of her family’s latest milestones involving community care to her 15 million plus followers on Instagram. Vanessa revealed that she and her family had unveiled the “Kobe & Vanessa Bryant Family Court” at Hoag Hospital in Newport Beach, California.

“Today on 2/24, we unveiled the Kobe and Vanessa Bryant Family court at Hoag Hospital in Newport Beach. HOAG Hospital will always hold a special place in my heart having delivered our four daughters there. The staff took such great care of us and we are happy to give back for future generations! ” Vanessa wrote in her post.

The space, part of the hospital’s Sue & Bill Gross Women’s Pavilion, serves as a welcome and departure area for patients, particularly parents and newborns as they prepare to return home.
