Springbok captain Siya Kolisi has sparked romance rumours after being captured getting cosy with a woman with the same name as his ex, Rachel Kolisi.
The rugby captain has been out and about this week ahead of the rugby team’s match against Ireland this weekend.
Last October, Siya and the mother of his two children announced their separation after eight years of marriage.

Over the weekend, Siya Kolisi was spotted courtside at the ATP final title match between Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner.

The viral pics come a few days after Siya’s ex, Rachel Kolisi, travelled to France with their kids to watch him celebrate his 100th test cap
WHO IS THE ‘OTHER WOMAN’?
It’s not just a name that Rachel John shares with Siya Kolisi’s ex-wife.
Like the former Springbok first lady, the “other woman” is also a social media influencer with a love of philanthropy.
She’s also followed by many Springbok WAGS like Anastacia Mbonambi, Anlia Etzebeth, Holly Clare Le Roux, Verna-Lee Libbok, Saskia Snyman, Marise Pollard, and Sarah Langa.
The 24-year-old also has similar interests like fitness, fashion, and her faith.
