Rassie Erasmus’ wife, Yolanda Erasmus: married with children
Rassie Erasmus is married to Yolanda Erasmus, a South African. The couple prefers to keep their relationship a secret and did not reveal how they met or when they got married. Rassie’s Twitter shows that he is extremely professional and likes to discuss his work life over his personal life. However, Rugby World reports that the couple have been married for almost 20 years and have three children, including two teenage twins. All three girls thanked World Rugby in a video message for reducing their father’s sentence to two months.
Rassie was banned from all rugby-related activities for 60 days after the governing body reacted strongly to his 62-minute video in which he ‘questioned’ many of the referees’ decisions. The children mocked him, saying, “We are so tired of him being at home, and we have had enough life lessons.” They praised the ruling government for shortening the suspension.
“My daughters seem to be happier than me to be back at work!!” Rassie responded with a joke of her own. Rassie and his family were infected with Covid-19 in 2020. Both he and his wife were very ill for a time. Fortunately, they were able to make a full recovery. The Erasmus also have a dog named Frank. Rassie took the internet by storm with tweets and videos of his dancing skills and Frank during his suspension.
