Rachel and Siya announced their separation in October 2024 after eight years of marriage, a development that surprised many South Africans who had long viewed them as a power couple.
During the interview, Rachel said she is comfortable focusing on herself and raising her children following the split.
“I’m good by myself. I don’t think I’ve been better by myself,” she said.
Her comments come as she continues travelling across South Africa hosting screenings of her documentary Falling Forward, which explores her life journey and personal challenges.
