Springboks captain Siya Kolisi’s estranged wife, Rachel, sent former Proteas batsman JP Duminy a congratulatory message as he celebrated his daughter Bella’s 10th birthday on Saturday, 23 August

Earlier this year, in February, Duminy and his then-wife Sue jointly announced their divorce, bringing an end to their 14-year marriage. The couple, married since 2011, share two daughters.

While the reasons behind their separation remain private, both have chosen to move forward maturely. Duminy has focused on his family and personal ventures, while Sue appears to have fully healed from the divorce and has recently found love again.

Duminy divorced from his wife, Sue, who has moved on

The couple, who married in 2011, had long been considered a power couple in cricket and lifestyle circles, often sharing glimpses of their family life and travels online. By late 2023, speculation of marital strain had intensified, and their legal separation was confirmed in February 2025.

Previously, on Duminy’s birthday, 14 April, Sue had shared loving posts and tributes. This year, however, she remained silent on social media, and the couple, who share children, have maintained a low profile regarding their separation.

Since retiring from international cricket in 2019, Duminy has remained active in the sport, working as a coach and commentator, with a recent focus on mentorship and personal business ventures.

Sue, a former model and lifestyle blogger, has largely stayed private on social media since her divorce. Recently, she has shared a few pictures with her new partner, suggesting that she has moved on while keeping most of her personal life out of the public eye.
