The couple's Ballito property has made appearances on social media, with posts capturing family life away from the rugby spotlight. Among the images shared were photographs of Etzebeth and Anlia decorating their Christmas tree, offering a domestic side to the imposing figure familiar to rugby supporters.

The current market value of the coastal property has not been independently established.

According to the same December 2024 report, Etzebeth has been photographed alongside a Mercedes-Benz AMG and a Mercedes-Benz GLE 400d. While such images provide a window into the vehicles associated with him, photographs alone do not confirm ownership or the purchase price of the cars in question.

Beyond the lifestyle details, Etzebeth's standing in South African rugby remains the foundation of his public profile. His longevity, physical presence and record-breaking international career have cemented his place among the Springboks' most recognised players over more than a decade of top-level rugby.
