Springboks captain Siya Kolisi has been criticised for taking off his shorts in front of a group of young girls.
This came after South Africa’s match against Ireland over the weekend, which they won 24-13.
The rugby star has been romantically linked to 24-year-old Dutch influencer Rachel James, following his separation from his ex-partner, Rachel Kolisi, last year.
SIYA KOLISI GIFTS PAIR OF SHORTS TO YOUNG FAN
On social media, a video of Siya Kolisi interacting with the crowd after the match against Ireland has set tongues wagging.
In it, the Springboks captain chatted to a group of female fans, joined by a young boy who requested pictures and autographs.
The boy appeared to ask Siya for a personal item, to which the latter suggested his pair of worn shorts.
The 34-year-old proceeded to take off his shorts, leaving him with only his undergarments on under his long black trench coat.
It’s not the first time Siya Kolisi has peeped a pair of his underwear.
Last year, Siya pulled down his rugby shorts at the Murrayfield Stadium in Scotland to reveal a pair of “Faffies” in the South African print flag.

In 2023, Siya posted an Instagram Story of him signing the butt of a die-hard supporter’s swimming costume.
The costume – made by Australian brand Budgy Smuggler – also featured the South African flag across it. “Not again!” the captain captioned the clip, hinting at a previous too-close-for-comfort encounter.
In 2021, Siya made headlines when he signed a fan’s butt in Edinburgh after a Springboks clash with Scotland. The rugby star even gave the fan a cheeky slap on his behind!
CRITICISM BY PUBLIC
On the X platform, rugby fans questioned and criticised Siya KOlisi’s decision to strip off in front of the young women.
Many were unimpressed by the move.
@KeshanNaidoo3: “Nah, that’s disgusting. I don’t care how famous you are, keep your pants to yourself.”
@Lindy_Nhlapo: “That’s a rather odd thing to give to a fan, why not boots or shirt?”
@JJAJLJTJ: “Exposing himself to a child!”
@KastroSol: “That’s public indecency!”
