SIYA KOLISI HAILS FROM THE EASTERN CAPE
The Springboks captain hails from the township of Zwide, Gqeberha (then Port Elizabeth) in the Eastern Cape. He was born and raised in this township and moved out at the age of 12, when he was offered a rugby scholarship to Grey High School in Gqeberha.
A year ago, Siya and his estranged wife Rachel Kolisi shocked South Africa when they announced that they were ending their marriage after eight years. The pair were together for over a decade and have two beautiful children together – Nicholas (11) and Keziah (9).
In late 2025, Siya sparked romance rumours with the 25-year-old when fans identified her as the woman sitting next to him at the recent ATP Tour Finals in Turin. The pair did not confirm nor deny any of the rumours. Siya then fueled rumours when he commented on a photo of Rachel while she was in South Africa.
Since then, Siya has commented on more photos and fans are convinced the pair are a couple. Siya will also move from The Sharks to The Stormers at the end of the season.
