According to The Citizen by way of News24, the two set up trysts at two different locations in Mbombela ahead of the first Test against New Zealand last month. Jantjies apparently did not stay in the same hotel as his teammates as is tradition.

The pair was reported to have been spotted at one of the guest houses by a father and his son, who went to approach Jantjies for an autograph. Lurid details emerged in the article about how the 'couple' engaged in loud love-making which is said to have made other guests uncomfortable.

The article continued:

"The following morning rugby’s bad boy left the guest house without settling his account of R4 000, before checking in to another guest house where he ran up a bill of R26 000, of which he reportedly only paid R5 000.
"The money was reportedly spent on expensive champagne, flowers, spa treatments and candlelit dinners."

Jantjies and Simjee have not commented on these allegations.
