Returning to the Sharks last year and now based in Durban, Kolisi brought his two children, Nicholas and Keziah, onto the field, sharing the moment on social media.
“About last night ❤️ @sharksrugby 🖤🤍,” he captioned the photos, showing a proud father enjoying the game with his kids.
On Monday, 22 December, Kolisi shared more pictures and videos from a beach outing with Nicholas and Keziah, captioning the post “Asibehappy.”

Public interest in Kolisi’s family life has grown since his separation from Rachel Kolisi. Despite the split, he remains committed to maintaining a loving connection with Nicholas and Keziah, who primarily live with their mother. Kolisi consistently makes time to be an engaged father.
He has also spoken openly about personal challenges that affected his marriage, including struggles with alcohol and lifestyle issues, as detailed in his documentary and autobiography, Rise. He acknowledged flirting outside his marriage, with his Christian mentor confronting him about the gap between his social media image and private behaviour, shedding light on pressures that contributed to the split.
