Vanessa's daughter Natalia echoed her mother's sentiment on her own Instagram Story post. "Thank you so much for all the love and support. Many of you may have noticed the recent switch to a private account," she wrote. "My mom and I have had to unfortunately block fan pages because they keep reposting our pics."

The 17-year-old went on explaining, "This makes it 10x harder to deal with our loss. We hope that people understand that although the fan pages have good intentions, they make moving forward harder since they are constant reminders. Blocking the accounts have helped the algorithm but we can not go public until the fan pages stop. We love all of your sweet intentions and we hope you understand. Always, Natalia."

While Vanessa has been turning her Instagram page account private, she continues to take to her social media account to remember her late husband and daughter. She recently unveiled her new tattoos on her neck and her wrist in honor of Kobe and Gigi, respectively.

Earlier this month, she also commemorated what would have been Gianna's 8th graduation. "Congratulations on your 8th grade graduation Gigi. I love you forever and always. I'm so proud of you. Mommy #classof2020," she wrote on June 8, along with the middle school diploma that was covered in white flowers.
