Married Springbok and Stormers lock, Andries Bekker, is having an affair with a student, South African magazine YOU magazine has revealed.
YOU took photos of 26-year-old Bekker's public park trysts with a student, Alet Strydom, 23, after a rugby fan recognised Bekker and called the magazine.
The photos that were taken clearly show Bekker and Strydom kissing.
The Stormers lock who was forced from the field for a period in the Super 14 final was dropped from the Springboks team to play Wales this weekend due to injury.
He has been married to his teenage sweetheart, Pioni, for two years, and according to YOU he has been seeing Strydom for the past five months.
"I love my wife very, very much," he told YOU via his dad, Hennie Bekker, who is also a former Springbok player.
"I'm genuinely sorry. It's the first time ever and I was stupid."
His dad, former Springbok lock Hennie Bekker (57), is annoyed with his son and sad.
Pioni's mom, who wants to be known just as Louise, said that a spaceship landing in her garden would have been less of a surprise.
The pictures of the couple will be in the June 10 edition of YOU.
