Springbok and Stormers player Damian Willemse has teased a romance with a blonde bombshell woman…and many of his female followers are heartbroken!
The boozing, butt-baring player has become a hit with the ladies following the national team’s second consecutive Rugby World Cup win last year.
Damian is also the youngest Springbok to have two World Cup titles to his name.
DAMIAN WILLEMSE SHOWS OFF NEW BAE?
In an Instagram post, Springbok Damian Willemse posted a pic of what appeared to be a coffee date with a cute blonde.
The duo were seen sitting outside a Cape Town restaurant while enjoying a hot drink and sharing a brownie. “Coffee for dinner,” he captioned the post.
In one of the images, he tagged the mystery woman – a model and influencer named Zoe Doyle.
Naturally, many followers of the 25-year-old heartthrob were disappointed by his hint of hot new romance.
@leeandre395: “You just broke my heart”
@ofentse_selahla: “Damn, I had plans for us, man.”
@amariswellsx: “This is the worst heartbreak I’ve ever had.”
A TYPE?
Before “soft launching” his new lady, Damian Willemse dated another blonde.
Just a few years ago, he was once linked to activist and motivational speaker Mia du Toit.
The couple went Instagram official in 2018 and were loved up if their Instagram posts were anything to go by. However, things seemed to have fizzled out between the couple in recent years. Their last post together was in 2020.
Speaking to Rugby Rocks that year, Mia expressed her disdain for being called a rugby WAG.
She said: “The fact that people are stereotyping a group of women is so archaic and old fashioned and goes against everything that the fight for women empowerment and gender equality strives for.”
THE OTHER WOMAN IN HIS LIFE
Apart from his significant other, Damian Willemse has much love for the other woman in his life, his mother, Charlotte Willemse.
Like her World Cup-winning son, Charlotte is also a hero thanks to her Strand community feeding scheme, which he funds.
She told Daily Maverick: “It is, for me, very important that Damian gives back to the community because they stand behind him.
“And although he’s not staying here anymore, the people still say they’re going to Damian Willemse’s house. That they’re going to get food there.”
“I’m very proud because Damian works very hard.”
