A woman from Cape Town who accidentally hit Rachel Kolisi on the head with a rugby ball during the Springboks trophy tour last week has apologized.

 

 

 

In a video that went completely viral, Eva Henry was seen trying to get captain Siya to autograph her ball. But the plan went left after the ball hit his wife in the head

Now, the UCT student is responding to the backlash in a TikTok video.

Although both Siya and Rachel Kolisi both laughed off the viral video – which was posted on the Instagram account of Rugby Pass – that hasn’t stopped the public from coming for the young woman who delivered the ill-fated blow.

According to Henry, she has been harassed on social media over the incident, which she claims was merely an accident.
