Wednesday night, fans of the Afrikaans television programme Kwêla had the opportunity to watch to the first interview with former Springbok captain Joost van der Westhuizen since the release of Joost: The Man in the Mirror / Joost: Spieëlbeeld - the biography that has given the sport star and his family such a tumultuous time this week.
Van der Westhuizen chatted to presenter Coenie de Villiers about his apology to the nation, the public’s response and his feelings about the media. The interview is in Afrikaans:
A few days before Joost’s emotional conversation with de Villiers, his wife, Amor Vittone, was hosted for a lengthy interview on Jacaranda FM’s “Just Plain Breakfast” show. The two-hour-long, tearful conversation (in English) was made available in a series of podcasts. Unfortunately the interviews have been removed from the site. We did however manage to track down two short snippets for you:
The original page does still display several pics of Amor taken during the interview:
Finally, Amor also had a stint on Kwêla with de Villiers. Watch their video:
