Springbok captain Siya Kolisi and his wife, Rachel, on Tuesday announced they would be parting ways.

In a joint statement released on Instagram, the couple said they had mutually decided to end their marriage.

“This decision comes from a place of love, respect and understanding that this is the best path forward for both of us.”

 “While our relationship as a couple is changing, we remain great friends and committed partners in raising our children with the same love and care they’ve always known.

“We will also continue working together on the Foundation that means so much to us.

“We are grateful for the love, understanding and support you’ve shown us and we kindly ask for your respect as we navigate this transition,” read their messages.

The couple shares two children and are also guardians to Kolisi’s younger siblings. The statements makes everything to sound easy but it is a hard blow to everyone who looked up to them.

We just appreciate their maturity that made them to be peaceful in this situation and to have been going through tough times but never washed their dirty linen in public.

Their loyalty to their fans is also amazing. They released a joint statement after a mutual agreement to notify those following them about the new development.

We pray for them to be strong during this hard time.
