Springboks star fly-half Handré Pollard and his wife, Marise Pollard, recently enjoyed a sunny family getaway to the tropical island of Mauritius alongside their two young children, Hunter and Isabella.
Marise took to Instagram to share a final photo dump of their beachside retreat, prompting warm responses from friends and followers—including Rachel Kolisi and singer Demi-Lee Moore.
Family Milestones & Journey to Motherhood
- Family Life: Handré and Marise have been together for over 13 years and married for more than eight. They are parents to Hunter André Pollard (born April 2024) and Isabella Tanya Pollard (born October 2025).
- Motherhood Journey: Marise has previously been open about her IVF journey with Hunter, contrasting her initial need for strict planning with the spontaneous joy brought by raising two children under two.
“She [Isabella] showed me that the magic isn’t found in getting everything right, it’s found in embracing the chaos, being present in the messy moments, and sometimes simply laughing when nothing goes according to plan.”
