Rachel Kolisi and her kids, Nicholas Kolisi and Keziah Kolisi, are headed back to South Africa after spending a week in the City of Love.
The Kolisis headed to Paris last week to cheer for Springboks captain Siya Kolisi, who played his milestone 100th Test match against France on Saturday, November 8.
With the support of his kids, soon-to-be ex-wife, and fans across the world, Siya and his team beat the French 32-17 despite playing the second half a player down.
The match cemented Siya's name in history as the 9th Springbok to play 100 Tests.
During an interview, Siya shared what the victory meant for him: "It is special for me. It means a lot to me and my family. I can’t take credit for everything I achieved because there have been so many people along the way who have helped me.
"I am nothing without the boys. I am so grateful for the way we fought and how we pulled it through."
He added that the win and his 100th cap showed that success is possible for anyone determined to rise above difficult circumstances.
After the match, it was time for Rachel and the kids to pack their suitcases to head back to Cape Town, South Africa.
"Ready for home," Rachel wrote on one of her Instagram Stories.

Rachel has been keeping her fans and followers posted on Instagram throughout the trip.
Last week, she posted a few pictures, including reigniting a family tradition of visiting the popular Five Guys, where they enjoyed burgers, fries and milkshakes. They also stopped at a museum and an insect hotel.
Fans were quick to comment on Rachel supporting Siya.
"A big day for their dad. Well done for being there with them. This shows a lot of class and dignity x," wrote one fan.
@karenisrael20 commented: "Co-parenting at its best. A lot of people could learn from this. You are just incredible @rachelkolisi."
@fearlessly_faithfull said: "This speaks absolute volumes!!! Siya is the people’s president, and @rachelkolisi will always remain our first lady! We absolutely adore all you do to ensure the best for your children."
Siya also shared a few pictures of him and the kids exploring the city.
Fans were sad that Rachel was not included in the pictures.
