Iva Ristic, Elton Jantjies's wife, has broken her silence over the affair he and Springbok dietician Zeenat Simjee were engaged in.

Jantjies and Ristic are the parents of three children.

According to The South African, she was not happy with how his employers, the South African Rugby Union, handled the matter, saying:

“This is very concerning for all the Springbok wives as none of us were aware that this behaviour is actually not breaking any rules and it’s taken so lightly… It’s very disappointing for a World Cup-winning management to allow situations like this to be created inside the team environment.

“We are speaking all the time. He is very disappointed. I think it’s also good for him to distance himself from the Bok squad and process everything.”

Ristic had made her Instagram account private in light of the news first breaking and the resulting storm.

A few weeks ago, Louw criticised the Boks for lacking a cutting edge following consecutive defeats against New Zealand and Australia.
