Vanessa Bryant is excited by the glamorous looks of her daughter Natalia as she pursues a modeling career: ‘Dad would be so happy’
It was announced in February that her daughter had signed a model contract with the prestigious IMG agency.
And Vanessa Bryant couldn’t help herself on Saturday, as she was thrilled by the glamorous looks of her eldest daughter, Natalia, in one of her first photo shoots since she hired a modeling professional.
Kobe Bryant’s widow, 38, shared some stunning images of her 18-year-old daughter on Instagram, highlighting her impressive features and impeccably made-up face.
Natalia shone in the close-up in which she wore her sleek black curls straight and tied in a ponytail pinned to one shoulder.
She was wearing a deep black dress and wore large gold hoop earrings for a look that looked like it was inspired by the singer Sade, although she looked like a dead character to her mother.
‘My baby (with makeup) ❤️,’ Vanessa gushed in her caption. ‘❤️ Dad would be very happy that you are pursuing your modeling career now that you are 18 years old. You are beautiful inside and out. Beautiful with makeup and without makeup. We love you.’
She also added the hashtag ‘#grown’ to emphasize that her eldest son was ready to leave the nest.
Vanessa posted the image in her Insta stories, while she joked that her daughter ‘stole my face with Daddy’s lips’.

Natalia also shared her own behind-the-scenes images from the photo shoot on her Instagram account on Friday.
She looked glamorous in a furry leopard print coat while reclining on a chair in an image.
A brief video highlighted her black sleeveless dress, decorated with wavy white marks.
In February, it was reported that Natalia would be represented by IMG Models, which represents important figures such as Gisele Bundchen, Hailey Bieber and Gigi and Bella Hadid.
“I have always been interested in fashion since I was very young. I have a love for the industry and as long as I can remember, I wanted to be a model, ‘she said in a statement. ‘There is a lot to learn, but I feel that this is a great opportunity to learn and express myself creatively.’
