Being the wife of a professional sportsman is never easy. 

With marriage comes other obstacles, like injuries - and Juanri Mostert knows it all. 

Juanri Mostert, wife of Springbok Franco Mostert, joined Breakfast with Martin Bester to share more about being the wife of a Springbok and life in general.  

"The wives are part of the Springboks - we are one big family. Together we are stronger and it is just amazing," she says.

"When something happens to a player - we all feel it because we are so close.

"My husband is a monster on the field, so when I see him play I'm quite calm.

"The team is in a really good 'gees' - they are lekker together. They all have nicknames for each other.

"This win means a lot for them and they are even closer and stronger."
