his 13-year-old daughter, Gianna, and seven others died in a helicopter crash in Calabasas, California, on Sunday. He is survived by wife and their three other children: Natalia, 17, Bianka, 3, and Capri, 7 months., O’Neal, was shocked to hear the sad news, sharing how it triggered the same awful emotions ignited by the October death of his sister, Ayesha, from cancer.“I’m just getting over the death of my sister.
O’Neal added that when his son, Greg, showed him a news article about Bryant’s accident, while he was working out with his other son, Shaqir, he didn’t believe it could be true. The reality of the devastating situation started to dawn on him as “everybody” started calling asking whether it was true. “This one’s gonna hurt for a long, long time,” he continued. “I just wish he was here. I wish I could say something to him. My heart goes out to Vanessa because she lost two. I have a little brother, but I lost a brother yesterday.”, and O’Neal said they were “brothers” who loved each other’s children.
Heart Broken ❤️🙏🙏🙏❤️
It’s expected. My heart goes out to Shaq. I didn’t know Kobe personally and he could elicit this kind of pain in me; I’m so so gutted and have cried since Sunday; I’m terribly sad and 💔... can’t begin to imagine what people that knew him personally are feeling...take heart brov.
I'm praying for Vanessa and the family. As well Shaq. Stay strong.
He will be okay, it is his way of mourning and grieving, stay strong big guy!
