The couple, who are high school sweethearts, tied the knot with a white wedding in Mossel Bay, reports The South African.
While the couple have not made the news of their Western Cape ceremony public with social media posts or statements, friends and guests of the betrothed shared glimpses of their attendance at Seeplas – a Garden Route venue nestled between George and Mossel Bay – to social media over the weekend.
Adding to the rumours of the Libbok wedding, the venue was ‘closed to the public for a wedding celebration’ at the time.
Libbok also did not join the Stormers in Italy, perhaps due to the flyhalf being preoccupied with saying ‘I do’s’ with his high school sweetheart.
The couple got engaged in July 2023, when Libbok proposed while on a picnic at Klein Roosboom Boutique winery in Cape Town.
The pair reportedly first met in high school in George and became high school sweethearts. According to social media posts made by the couple, the pair will be celebrating eight years together in 2024, the year of their marriage.
