'Just in general, Kobe was very proud that both of his older girls were hard working at school and seemed to get his principles of life,' a source tells PEOPLE
in a helicopter crash on Sunday, the 41-year-old basketball legend “felt very privileged” that he was able to be her coach.
“A lot of families have parents that constantly work and kids that are being raised by nannies. The Bryants have always been different. The focus on family has always been a priority. Vanessa is a stay-at-home mom and after Kobe stopped playing basketball, the main focus has been about raising their daughters.”. “As a dad, Kobe has always been very involved,” the source adds. “You could tell he was intensely proud of his daughters.
The source says that at least last year, Gianna attended Harbor Day school and Natalia attended Sage Hill School.“The older girls were aware that they were being raised privileged. The whole family was very much about charity work and helping out less fortunate. They have never come across as spenders, or show-offs. The family was always involved at the girls’ schools. You could tell that Kobe just wanted to be one of the dads.
