During Monday's Kobe Bryant memorial at Staples Center, his widow, Vanessa, tearfully recalled how Kobe gave her the blue dress from the film 'The Notebook.'
“He planned special anniversary trips and and a special traditional gift every year of our marriage,” she said.
“He gifted me the actual notebook and the blue dress Rachel McAdams wore in ‘The Notebook’ movie,” Bryant added. “When I asked him why he chose the blue dress, he said it was because it was the scene when Allie comes back to Noah. We had hoped to grow old together like the movie. We really had an amazing love story.”
