Siya & Rachel Kolisi Decide to Divorce: A Heartfelt Joint Statement

In a heartfelt and candid press release, Siya and Rachel Kolisi have announced their decision to part ways after several years of marriage. The couple, known for their high-profile relationship and deep commitment to philanthropy through their Kolisi Foundation, shared their decision publicly, emphasizing that the separation comes from a place of mutual respect and understanding.

Their joint statement read:

“We wanted to share some important news with you. After much reflection and open conversations, we have mutually decided to end our marriage. This decision comes from a place of love, respect, and understanding that this is the best path forward for both of us.”

The Kolisis, who have often been open about their love for each other and their family, acknowledged that while their romantic relationship is coming to an end, they will remain partners in parenting their children. They expressed their commitment to raising their children with the same love and care they have always known, ensuring that their transition into this new phase of their lives does not impact the family bond.

“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.”

The Kolisi Foundation, which has been central to their work in community development, social upliftment, and advocacy, will continue to be a shared priority for them. Both Siya, captain of South Africa’s rugby team, and Rachel, a public figure in her own right, have been deeply involved in the Foundation’s initiatives, and their commitment to these causes remains strong.

As they move forward with their decision to separate, the Kolisis have expressed gratitude for the support and understanding they have received from their friends, family, and the public. They kindly asked for privacy and respect during this period of transition.

“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.”

The end of Siya and Rachel’s marriage marks the conclusion of a significant chapter in their lives, but their shared dedication to their children and their philanthropic efforts remains unchanged. Their announcement has been met with an outpouring of support, as the public reflects on the grace and openness with which they have navigated this difficult decision.

As they continue their work with the Kolisi Foundation, Siya and Rachel’s focus will be on maintaining a positive and supportive environment for their children and ensuring that their shared legacy in helping others endures.
