[NEVER BEFORE SEEN] KOBE'S DAD JOE "JELLYBEAN" BRYANT GIVES FIRST SPEECH AFTER KOBE AND GIGI's DEATH

The "ABIS" had the pleasure of hosting Joe "Jellybean" & Elaine Bryant as our late Kobe Bryant's parents deliver a short but touching speech for the first time after basketball's most iconic legend and daughter Gigi Bryant left us, GONE TOO SOON!
They express the very values instilled in their children that would not only be passed down to the children of their own but the very pinnacle points of what were the values held by a legend of the game.
Rest In Peace KOBE & GIGI and I would like to extend my sincerest apologies for holding this footage from the world for the last two years. I wasn't sure if anyone was prepared for the weight this would hold to any true fan or friend of the family.

[@amirharris473]

He didn't have to speak publicly about his Son. Whatever occurred between family was private. People always believe that you owe them an explanation for something that doesn't have anything to do with them. Mind your own business and move on. May The Lord continue to bless the family on both sides.

This is what happens when you allow ANYone to come between you and your family. I don’t care WHAT has transpired before the mate comes along. Her job is to encourage her husband to ALWAYS remain open to reconciliation with his family. It appears, however, another priority was at work. Oh well. Be careful who you allow into your life.

[@blaknbeauty1]

Oooooooh my God. Yes yes yes 💯

[@angelaroberts7041]

@AlexisTaylor-kp2xzyou don’t know the family either so hush

[@camm8642]

eh I disagree I don't think its really up to vanessa I think its between kobe and his parents....she shouldn't make it difficult for him to reconcile either but that is really a matter for kobe and his family

[@jesuswilljudge7296]

Yea, it was Vanessa and her mother drove the wedge

[@firebug1892]

God say honor Mother and Father, they cared for and raised their son. People need to shut up and stay out of family business, Kobe doesn’t belong to fans that’s their child!

[@michellelove8146]

Thank you for saying this so eloquently and truthful!!!!!

[@romagnuslarsson7065]

Bullshit, Kobe dedicated his career to his fans and played for entertaining us during 20 years, he did not play anymore for his parents who lack of love

[@katyarnold-ji8sv]

Amen! that's right! 100% agree with your comment.

[@Tubefish07]

I don’t think that they could have done anything that could have been so terrible as to not be left something from Kobe’s estate. From all accounts, his father absolutely worshipped him throughout his life. The only thing I’m truly upset about is the fact that I can’t support them financially. However as time passes. It seems they were better judges of character than people are giving them credit for.

[@vision2life]

What? Being gold diggers is a character? Lol.

[@blaknbeauty1]

Yes. I agree. They should've been left with something 💵 from Kobe. But the wife and mother in law got everything. That's a crying shame 😢🙏

[@lovegodschild1430]

my friend brother and her are so close look like twin he helped her alit now he has a lady kind of like Vanessa and he cut his sister of and so maybe the lady told him to Vanessa could of told Kobe to just leave his money to his kids not right but that how they are

I noticed at the memorial service at the crypto Arena that nobody acknowledged Kobe's mom or father or any blood relatives that were there were ignored and not even thought about and me personally I really feel that, That right there is the ultimate disrespect and betrayal for me because that's Kobe's mother and father and I didn't see not even one person even look their way or even embrace them with love at and Kobe would never agree to that at all

Her mother turned out to be the gold digger of that family.

[@conniemoore3848]

U got that right 👍

[@claing-nd9tb]

@@robocat10 kobe's wife inherited 450 million from his death. wife never gave a cent to her own mother after promising to pay for the house she lived in. kobe was a selfish POS also, as much as I like him as a player. Kobe's parent's had to pawn kobe's high school jerseys to pay the house mortgage cause kobe wouldn't give them anything either. The wife was the gold digger not her mother. Anybody who calls a mother a "gold digger" likely never had a mother a close relationship with one.

[@blaknbeauty1]

Oh really. I didn't know that!

[@jesuswilljudge7296]

Vanessa and her mother scammers

[@blackbrew78]

Dad was in the Nba so he tried to warn Kobe about Vanessa early on. But kobe was young and Stubborn and wanted what he wanted! This caused friction with him and his parent from that point on. Once Kobe Married Vanessa she knew she had him. She knew he would no longer listen to the wisdom of his Father and Mother. Vanessa made Kobe turn his back on his parents. That's the reason the started selling his memorabilia while he was alive and he was upset about it. But how can you be close to a Billionaire and not help your parents? Vanessa help her parents live a great lifestyle so why couldn't kobe help his parents financially? I grew up in Ardmore, Pa and played basketball against Kobe when we were teens. He was always with his Dad and had the utmost respect for his parents until he Met Vanessa. Im not ssying he shouldn't have Married her or had his beautiful children by her. Im just saying he should've repaired the relationship with his parents.

[@grichkatayou7558]

what is wrong with people like you who cant use their brains to save their lives. Do you know Kobe Bryant ??? have you seen his career and listened to all his interviews ?? Kobe was not a person to triffle with . END OF STORY if you crossed him there was a price. that was for everybody and his parents should have known that better than anyone. It was HIS MONEY, dont bite the hand that feeds you. very simple. He was married with that woman for 20 years !! I dont care what his parents tough as the years passed they were proven wrong! she was a decent wife to him and gave him children. so their fears were not justified... because of cource Kobe Bryant was a good judge of character. also he cheated on her many times (so there goes your narative of her having control over him) before the london games she was fed up and wanted to divorce, in California and they had not prenup, she could have taken half his money if she was a gold digger half of 400million dollars at the time. He won her back and she didnt leave... 10 years into his marriage his parents should have realized they were mistaken for ot coming to his wedding and apologize to them. they were a solid couple. instead they sold his stuff smh some parents... if anyone could keep a grudge it was Kobe Bryant! that was his character... He was right and he knew it and they didnt apologize so he froze them out simple. they were wrong time has proven it... and still they didnt apologize... they are not the first parents who were against a union , but when time proves you wrong , wise parents come around and apologize and explain they were just fearful...

[@AK-fu1ge]

I have no idea if what you typed is true. However, if it is true, my guess for why Vanessa influenced Kobe to turn his back on his parents could be because of the incident in Colorado and how Kobe still loved her and she chose to stay. Maybe there was a power and leverage dynamic that was established in their relationship after what happened with him in Colorado
