Cape Town – Rachel Kolisi, queen of the Springboks’ WAGs, has just dropped an announcement on Instagram: she and her two kids, Nicholas (9) and Keziah (6), are bidding adieu to Paris – for now – and making a return to South Africa.
In a post that’s got the internet buzzing, Rachel spilled the beans on their whirlwind year abroad, celebrating the kids’ first year of schooling in Paris, France.
Taking to her timeline, she delighted followers with a series of photos, capturing her kids engaged in charming airport antics and an endearing family snapshot mid-flight.
“First year of school in Paris DONE ✅ Very possibly the wildest 11 months of our lives. I woke the kids up for school, to the 🇿🇦 national anthem this morning.
More on the first leg of this journey later. For now we are madly excited to get HOME!! Proud of us.” she wrote.
