PROUD GIRL-DAD

Despite initially hoping for a son, Victor Matfield is proud to have raised his three daughters.

Speaking on the SA Rugby podcast in 2020, the now-49-year-old opened up about his life as a girl dad.

He said, “I must say I enjoy my girls. It’s great. When me and Monja fight, they are always on my side.

“They are very involved in sports as well, so I get involved with their training.”

He isn’t the only Bok girl-dad; others include the likes of Eben Etzebeth, Faf de Klerk, Bongi Mbonambi and others.
