Kobe and Vanessa Bryant's marriage was an LA love story that spanned two decades and included some incredible triumphs — but also some of life’s toughest tests.

Before Kobe Bryant’s tragic death in a helicopter crash on Monday, he and wife Vanessa would stand by each other through a legendary basketball career that included five NBA championships but also the early opposition of his parents to their union, infidelity, a sexual assault case and a near-divorce.THE BEGINNING: BRYANT’S HIGHSCHOOL SWEETHEART

Bryant, 20, began sending roses to Vanessa at Marina High School in Huntington Beach, leading to widespread gossip and even TV crews descending on the campus. Bryant won a three-peat of championships with the Lakers from 2000-02 but after they welcomed their first daughter, Natalia, in 2003 — an arrival that helped secure a reconciliation with Bryant’s parents — their relationship turned toward rocky times.A few months after Natalia was born, Bryant was arrested after a 19-year-old hotel employee in Colorado accused him of sexual assault.

Bryant continued to build his legacy in the NBA, adding his fourth and fifth championships in 2009 and 2010, but away from the arena his relationship was falling apart. “That’s all the beauty of it: having the persistence and determination to work through things — very, very tough things — and we’ve been able to do that,” he said.Source:Instagram
