Siya Kolisi legally adopted Liphelo and her brother Liyema after their mother passed away in 2009.
After years of separation, Siya found his siblings in foster care in Zwide, a township in Gqeberha, and they have been together since.
Rachel Kolisi plays a significant role in caring for Siya’s siblings along with their own children, Nicholas and Keziah.

The video features Liphelo asking Rachel questions like, ‘What would you do if I came home drunk?’ and ‘What would you do if I called you at 3am from jail?’
Rachel’s answers, which were praised for being ‘sweet,’ ‘calming,’ ‘mindful’ and ‘heartwarming,’ left a strong impression on viewers.

One TikTok user commented, ‘These questions are stressing Rachel but her answers are perfect. She’s not saying Pelo won’t get into trouble but at all times she’s prioritising her safety.’
The clip quickly garnered praise, with many TikTokers even suggesting that Liphelo should pose the same questions to Siya.
Despite the playful nature of the questions, Rachel’s responses demonstrated her nurturing side and solidified her status as the ultimate ‘cool mom’ in Mzansi’s eyes.
