Rachel John, who has been linked romantically to Springbok captain Siya Kolisi, has joined the fun surrounding Saskia Snyman’s pregnancy, offering her prediction after the expectant mother asked followers to guess whether she and husband RG Snyman are expecting a boy or a girl.
Rachel’s comment came on Saskia’s Instagram post on 6 August, adding another familiar name from the wider Springbok circle to the growing conversation around the couple’s first child.
Rachel John shares her baby gender prediction
Saskia Snyman recently invited her followers to share their predictions after revealing that she and RG already know their baby’s gender.
The mother-to-be jokingly asked whether fans thought the couple were giving off more “boy-mom” or “girl-dad” energy.
Among the responses was Rachel John, who offered her own prediction:
“RG giving girl dad you’re giving boy mom.”
The light-hearted exchange quickly attracted attention, particularly because Rachel has been linked to Siya Kolisi in recent months.
RG and Saskia Snyman expecting their first child
RG Snyman and Saskia announced their pregnancy in May 2026, sharing the news with their followers through a simple but heartfelt announcement.
The baby will be the couple’s first child, and the pregnancy has been celebrated by friends, family and members of the wider rugby community.
Since announcing the pregnancy, the couple have continued to enjoy life together, including outdoor adventures and special moments with friends and fellow rugby families.
Saskia has also continued sharing glimpses of her pregnancy journey with her social media followers.
Springbok rugby circle celebrates another new arrival
The Snymans’ pregnancy comes during a period in which several members of the Springbok rugby community have welcomed or announced new additions to their families.
Fellow rugby couple Jean and Aisling Kleyn also welcomed a baby girl earlier in 2026, with their growing family remaining close to friends within the Springbok community.
With RG and Saskia now preparing to become parents, attention will naturally continue to build around their upcoming arrival.
For now, however, the baby’s gender remains a secret—and Rachel John has made her prediction.
Will she get it right? Fans will have to wait for the Snymans to reveal the answer.
