  • Springboks captain Siya Kolisi reportedly celebrated Rachel John’s 25th birthday in Jeffrey’s Bay on January 4, fueling ongoing romance rumors.
  • Kolisi shared his journey to the coastal town on Instagram Stories, with John also confirming she would spend her birthday in Jeffrey’s Bay.
  • Fans connected the two after both shared matching views from the Surf Lodge South Africa, where the celebration took place.

This development comes approximately a year after Siya and Rachel Kolisi announced the end of their eight-year marriage. Romance rumors linking Siya to the 25-year-old influencer, Rachel John, first emerged after they were spotted at the ATP Tour Finals in Turin.

Neither Kolisi nor John had previously confirmed their relationship, but his public comments on Rachel’s photos and now this joint celebration have led fans to strongly believe they are dating.

Rachel John divides her time between South Africa and Amsterdam, and Jeffrey’s Bay is her South African home base. Kolisi’s return to the Eastern Cape, his birthplace, holds personal significance.
