Rachel Kolisi was in tears as her husband, Siya Kolisi, lifted the World Cup Trophy with the Springboks.
It was a difficult match between South Africa and New Zealand in the World Cup final in Paris.
For the first time in the knockout stages, the Springboks took an early lead going to the break leading 12-11.
In the second half, the All Blacks gave everything despite being a man down.
They managed to reduce the gap but could not find the last point needed to match the Springboks.
The Springboks went on to win the World Cup and the players, their wives, kids, and fans celebrated.
Rugbypass shared Rachel’s video when her husband was lifting the trophy, and it was lovely.

The stadium was noisy as the Springboks fans celebrated an iconic win of their arch-rivals.
Rachel was part of the crowd, and she was also jumping and shouting to the Springboks as they got to lift the trophy.
It seemed the moment her husband Siya lifted the trophy, emotions got her.
She switched from dancing, jumping and shouting to calm and looking the other side.
Indeed, Rachel could not imagine what she witnessed: his husband lifting the World Cup for the second time.
At that moment, she took her hand, shedding off the tears in her eyes, and fans loved it.
