UNFOLLOW: Siya Kolisi with ex Rachel Kolisi and his siblings in-law

FOR a long time, the Kolisi family looked like one big, happy team. 

Springboks captain Siya Kolisi was very close to his ex-wife Rachel Kolisi's family. This included Rachel’s brother Joel and his Olympic gold medalist wife, Tatjana (Schoenmaker) Smith. 

Until the likes stopped flowing, the comments dried up, and then, the ultimate modern snub: the unfollow.

It wasn't just Siya, though; Tatjana unfollowed him back.

The unfollow comes a little over a year since Siya and Rachel announced their separation.

Word on the social media streets is that Siya has moved on with the Dutch model now dubbed “the other Rachel.” And it seems the introduction of a new leading lady has drawn lines in the sand that even old friendships can’t cross.

Meanwhile Rachel Kolisi introduced her nuwe documentary, “Falling Forward,” to her followers this week, declaring, “A movement begins today.”

“Falling Forward” promises a rare, intimate look at the defining seasons of Kolisi’s life, spanning identity, loss, motherhood and healing. 

Amsterdam-born author and Siya Kolisi’s rumoured new bae, Rachel John, het nie op haar laat waggie and also took to social media to celebrate a major milestone after her new book “Gelukking Heb Ik ADHD” (Fortunately, I Have ADHD) became the best seller days after it was released.

John’s memoir discusses her experience living with ADHD, depression and an eating disorder.

The 24-year-old excitedly captioned her post: “Life has been treating me so good lately. Woke up this morning and saw my book became a bestseller after just one week.”
