After weeks of denying he had an affair with dietician Zeenat Simjee, Springbok flyhalf Elton Jantjies has come clean, admitting they had an affair for several months.
The pair, who initially denied reports of an affair, were sent home from Argentina ahead of a Rugby Championship match in September shortly after news of their extracurricular activities made headlines.
In the latest revelations Jantjies, in an interview with News24 hours before he boarded a flight to Cyprus to be with his family, said he was ashamed and saddened by his own actions and has taken time to reflect.
