Springbok coach Rassie Erasmus reveals his number one fan
Rassie is keeping his spirits high amid his divorce...
If you're a rugby fan, you may follow legendary Springbok rugby coach closely, but, are you his number one fan?
Rassie Erasmus is a renowned rugby genius. His relentless contributions to the sport have not gone unnoticed. The time, sweat, and tears have brought our nation together through the love of sport - so much so that he recently received a doctorate of Philosophy in Coaching Science from North-West University.
Unfortunately, there has been some news that Rassie and his wife are parting ways after 20 years together. News feeds have been buzzing with updates on a divorce in the Erasmus household.

According to Huisgenoot, Rassie Erasmus and his wife Nicolene have divorced. The publication has obtained documents that state that the divorce between N. Erasmus (Nicolene) and J. Erasmus (Johan) was finalised on the 29th of April 2024.
It is never easy when sharing your life with someone for two decades, however, having supportive friends makes a world of difference.
Those close to the couple have done everything they can to respect their private lives.
Nobody knows everything brewing in the inner rugby circles. That is a brotherhood that protects one another.
While the Boks remain mum on what is going on with their coach, last month, Rassie shared pictures of his "boozy boys weekend" with fellow Springbok staff.
Stay tuned for more on this developing story.
