Since announcing her split from Springbok captain Siya Kolisi last October, Rachel Kolisi has been adjusting to a new chapter of her life—one filled with cryptic quotes, solo parenting, and, according to some critics, a bit of subtle shade.
Now, she’s posted another mysterious message that has people wondering yet again if it’s aimed at her ex.
A Not-So-Subtle Hint About Loyalty?
On her Instagram Stories, Rachel recently shared a quote that read:
“The only people I owe my loyalty to are those who never made me question theirs.”
While she didn’t tag anyone or give extra context, many of her followers think the message was clearly directed at Siya.
It’s not the first time Rachel has posted something that seems to hint at personal drama without naming names.
Her Followers Have Seen These Posts Before
This is just the latest in a string of quotes that seem to reflect what Rachel’s been going through emotionally since the split.
Back in February, she shared a post about someone still viewing her stories even after being blocked. It read:
“You block someone on everything, and all of a sudden, xajdhjsd stars are watching your story.”
It was cryptic, a little cheeky, and definitely raised eyebrows.
And during the holidays, she didn’t hold back either.
One post read:
“Let the kids believe in Santa. You believed in your ex 25 times.”
That one hit a little too close to home for many—and fans were quick to link it back to her former marriage.
Social Media Criticism and Sympathy
While many people have supported Rachel through her public separation, others have accused her of trying to gain sympathy online.
From opening up about anxiety attacks to being spotted in a modest Toyota Yaris, some critics say she’s been deliberately crafting an image of struggle.
But supporters argue she’s just being real—and trying to share her truth in the only way she knows how.
Siya’s Side of the Story Was Already Public
Meanwhile, Siya Kolisi hasn’t exactly kept quiet about their rocky road either.
In his 2023 documentary and autobiography Rise, the Springbok star opened up about some dark moments in their relationship.
He admitted to excessive partying, an addiction to pornography, visiting strip clubs, and battling with alcohol.
The implication of infidelity wasn’t spelled out, but many felt it was all there between the lines.
Just One Year Ago, It Was All Smiles
What makes the breakup even more heartbreaking is how close they seemed not too long ago.
Last year during the July test series, Siya shared a heartfelt collage featuring Rachel and their kids, along with teammates like Cheslin Kolbe and Eben Etzebeth with their families.
One shot showed Siya and Rachel smiling and hugging—it looked like a picture of happiness.
Rachel had reposted the photos back then with the caption:
“A Saturday full of my favourite things.”
It’s a stark contrast to where things stand now.
Are They Better Off Apart?
Fans remain divided. Some think the couple needed space to heal and grow separately, while others still hold out hope for a reconciliation.
Either way, Rachel seems to be speaking her truth—one Instagram Story at a time.
