Until now, the pair had only dropped subtle hints online, sharing matching scenic photos from Victoria Falls without appearing together. These included wildlife encounters with hippos and elephants, as well as white-water rafting and quad biking adventures.
The public reveal comes as Kolisi’s ex-wife, Rachel Kolisi, recently shared details of her highly anticipated documentary, Falling Forward, which chronicles her journey of self-discovery.
Social media users quickly flooded the comments with support, with some joking that if Siya Kolisi and Rachel John were to marry, she would become South Africa’s “new Rachel Kolisi.”
Rachel John is a 25-year-old Dutch influencer, model and reality TV star.
While rumours of their relationship first surfaced in November 2025, the fan-captured video has now confirmed what many had already suspected.
