Natalia Bryant is celebrating a major milestone on May 16th. The 22-year-old shares the exciting news to social media that she graduated with honors from the University of Southern California. She also made sure to honor her late father Kobe Bryant on her special day by having his Black Mamba symbol embroidered on her graduation stole.
Her mom Vanessa Bryant also shares the sweet moment on her own social media, writing, “We’re so proud of you.” And while Natalia hasn’t officially declared what she’ll do postgraduation, she has previously expressed interest in joining the fashion world.
The 22-year-old signed with IMG Models back in 2021, making her modeling debut later that year. Natalia went on to make her runway debut in 2023, walking in Versace’s Spring Summer 2024 show during Milan Fashion Week. At the time, Natalia shared the major career moment to Instagram, writing, “Still feels like a dream. I am beyond honored and grateful.”
