South African professional rugby union player who currently captains Springboks, Siya Kolisi, and his wife, Rachel‘s age difference was revealed.
Usually, most South Africans expect a man to be older than his wife.
This comes from the African cultural norms and traditions suggesting that a man must be older to be respected.
Indeed, this is not a one-size-fits-all-all, and some cultures do not believe it.
With so much attention on the couple, their age difference was revealed as the Rugby World Cup gets closer.The Springboks captain was born on 22 June 1991 and is now thirty-two years old.
He was born and bred in Port Elizabeth, in the Eastern Cape, where he started showing a love of rugby.
On the other hand, his wife Rachel Kolisi was born on 2 June 1990 and is now thirty-three years old.
Rachel was born in Grahamstown, South Africa.
Surprisingly, Siya Kolisi and his wife Rachel are some of the few celebs with solid marriages.
They have been making all sorts of headlines out of their love and family.Siya is with the Springboks as they prepare for the World Cup, and Rachel is with the children.
She always travels between France, England, and South Africa supporting her husband.
The notion that a man must be older than his wife may need to be reviewed.
