Kobe Bryant's wife, Vanessa Bryant, gave birth to their fourth daughter, Capri, in June 2019. Kobe admitted that Vanessa was rooting for a boy more than he was, telling late night Jimmy Kimmel in September 2019, "I love having girls. Like, I love it. They're awesome." Little Capri joined the couple's third-eldest daughter, Bianka, who was born in 2016.
Not only did Kobe share tons of photos of his girls on Instagram, but he also wasn't shy about gushing over them in interviews. "My friends say, 'It takes a real man to make a boy,'" the athlete discussed with ExtraTV in July 2017. "I'm like, 'Dude, it takes a king to make a princess ... get in line." He added, "It's pretty cool for me 'cause it's Daddy's little princesses."
The devoted husband and dad had a sense of humor when chatting about his daughters' contrasting personalities. "I always say if you look at the eldest daughter, she's always like the calm, responsible, thoughtful one, and then the second sister is like a tornado, like Elsa and Anna," he quipped to Kimmel. "That's certainly like our house, and then we have two other ones."
