Woman claps back over DMs and Siya

- JAMAL GROOTBOOM

IT SEEMS that the real-life drama of “Keeping Up With the Kolisis” keeps on bringing more twists and turns as the woman who Rachel Kolisi alleges slid into Siya’s DMs (direct messages) clapped back on Tuesday.

Since Rachel posted about the DM incident on Monday, the woman in question made her account private, change her Instagram handle and didn’t respond – until now.

In the Instagram stories posted by her, the woman shared a screenshot of Siya replying to one of her Instagram stories, saying “check out @frankeesza” – which is the rugby player’s underwear brand.

In the next story, she posted: “Siya Kolisi slid into my DMs. Sends me the post that I posted on IG. His wife sees this and makes it look like I’m sending him my a**. The post is on my IG!

“Hahaha, at first I deleted the post, but why should I make myself look guilty. Keep your husband under a tighter leash. I’m not going to try and defend myself but I have 100s of people messaging me telling me I’m a slut. What about him sliding into my DMs?”

After the online encounter became a trending story, Rachel deactivate­d her Instagram account and hasn’t reposted to the new evidence brought by the woman in question.

When it comes to her husband, Rachel has had a history of topping the Twitter trends list as she was in an online skirmish last year after a Twitter user referred to Siya as a “type”. Rachel then replied to the comment saying, “(Siya’s) not ‘a type’. He’s a married man responsibl­e for four children.”

Siya is currently in New Zealand with his Stormers team and is yet to respond to any of the claims.
