Joost van der Westhuizen remains one of South Africa’s most iconic rugby figures. He was part of the Springbok team that won the country’s first Rugby World Cup on home soil in 1995 and passed away in 2017 after a courageous battle with motor neurone disease.
He earned 89 Test caps for the Springboks between 1993 and 2003 and captained the national side on several occasions. Joost played a central role in South Africa’s historic 1995 Rugby World Cup triumph, lifting the trophy at Ellis Park after victory over New Zealand, a moment that came to symbolise unity in post-apartheid South Africa.
He later featured at the 1999 Rugby World Cup, finishing as joint top try-scorer for the Springboks, highlighting his rare attacking ability from the scrum base. Beyond the statistics, Joost’s legacy endures through his leadership, toughness and unmatched competitive spirit, qualities that continue to define excellence in South African rugby.
Joost's ex-wife questioned over new look.
Briefly News earlier reported that Amor Vittone, the ex-wife of Joost van der Westhuizen, was questioned over her new look after sharing new pictures on social media.
Fans and followers were left surprised as they wondered whether the noticeable youthful appearance was a result of filters or possible cosmetic enhancements.
