RACHEL JOHN RUMOURED TO BE DATING SIYA KOLISI
In late 2025, Siya sparked romance rumours Rachel John. This began when fans identified her as the woman sitting next to him at the recent ATP Tour Finals in Turin. Since then, Siya has been dropping comments under her posts and it seems they have been at some of the same places, with speculation of Rachel vlogging from Siya’s home in Ballito.
In early 2026, Siya and Rachel went on “baecation” to Victoria Falls. At first, both Siya and Rachel were posting what they were up to in the country. However, they did not post any photos of each other. This was only confirmed to be a “baecation” when a fan spotted them together, boarding a cruise on the Zambezi River.
With the distance, many speculated whether Siya and Rachel were still together. In April, Rachel revealed that she was going on a date with Siya. This comes as Siya is going through a divorce from estranged wife of eight years, Rachel Kolisi. Siya has two children – Keziah (9) and Nicholas (11) with Rachel (Kolisi). Rachel (Kolisi) and Siya also legally adopted his two siblings when they were younger.
