Throwback moments from South Africa’s former favorite couple, Rachel and Siya Kolisi, continue to entertain Mzansi, and one such moment has had the internet in stitches. In a TikTok video shared by Rachel, she captured a hilarious snippet from their time together in Paris, where they lived as a family.
In the video, Rachel lovingly filmed Siya before bed, but it quickly took a comedic turn when she revealed Siya’s snoring. The Springboks captain’s snoring was so loud that Rachel couldn’t sleep, and in the clip, she is seen looking at him with a smile and shaking her head in disbelief. It was a relatable moment for many, as she seemed to be asking herself, “Am I the only one going through this?”

The video quickly went viral, garnering over 2 million views as fans found the situation hilariously funny. In the comment section, reactions flooded in. One user, @Gingy, joked, “That’s not snoring. That’s the roar of a lion… Lion King… Our captain.” Another, @katlipilane, playfully teased Rachel, saying, “That’s our head boy, Rachel, don’t embarrass him like that.” Others, like @Lwandle Esihle, couldn’t resist adding humour, suggesting Siya was dreaming about someone named Elizabed, while @Luuya_n showed some sympathy, saying, “But he’s tired from carrying the country, so he is allowed to snore.”
Fans couldn’t help but laugh at this relatable and adorable throwback moment between the two. Even though Rachel and Siya have since parted ways, their lighthearted moments continue to bring joy to Mzansi.
