41 year old NBA legend Kobe Bryant passed away on Sunday, after his private helicopter went down in Los Angeles.
Ever since his passing, his family has gone into hiding – so that they could process their loss.
Well now his father, Joe Bryant – was spotted out for the first time since Kobe’s passing. Joe – who had a string relationship with his son – is a former professional basketball player, and current basketball coach.
Here are the images:
The UK’s Daily Mail sent a paparazzi out o this house, and they managed to get the first shots of Kobe’s dad. According to the paper, the 65-year-old retired NBA star, affectionately known as Jellybean, stepped out of the home he shares with Kobe’s mother, Pamela, in Las Vegas – after a giant bouquet of yellow flowers were delivered on Monday afternoon.
Kobe’s relationship with his mother, unfortunately, was not as strong as the one he had with his dad. Kobe’s wife Vanessa and mom Pam didn’t get along – and that put a strain on the father-son relationship.
