Rachel Kolisi and Springbok WAG Layla Kolbe reunite

Rachel Kolisi and her Springbok WAG bestie, Layla Kolbe, had an emotional reunion at the former’s Falling Forward biography and documentary screening in Cape Town over the weekend.

On her Instagram account, Layla Kolbe revealed that she had attended Rachel Kolisi’s Falling Forward event in Cape Town over the weekend.

The Springbok WAG warmly embraced her friend in the post, which she captioned: “The stars finally aligned”

Layla praised Rachel’s woman-empowerment endeavour, adding: “So inspired and liberated by the rawness, the honesty and the power of women coming together. 🤍Proud of you, girl!”

Despite going through a high-profile divorce, Rachel Kolisi has maintained a firm friendship with Layla, who was her bridesmaid at her 2016 wedding.

“Finally got my hands on it”, she captioned an Instagram Story.

Meanwhile, Cheslin Kolbe joins his close pal, Siya Kolisi, who has also returned to the Stormers to be closer to his children.

The Bok captain is co-parenting his two children, Nick and Keziah, with his ex-wife, Rachel Kolisi, who is based in Cape Town.
