Two-times Rugby World Cup champion Handre Pollard is one of the highest-paid rugby players outside of the Springboks.

In recent years, the famous flyhalf has swopped life in the Western Cape for a new life abroad with wife, Marise.

Now, with a baby on the way, the couple are settling into their home away from home in Leicester in the UK.

WHERE DOES MARISE AND HANDRE POLLARD LIVE?

In 2022, Handre Pollard made the trek to the UK, signing a R14 million a year contract with Leicester Tigers.

According to MailOnline, Handre and Marise call the town of Market Harborough home.

He told the publication in 2022: “I’ve always wanted to come to England. I wanted to come here three years ago, but there wasn’t really the opportunity, so I had to go elsewhere”.

He added: “My wife has been here for a few months now, and she has sorted out the house. I missed all the heavy lifting and the building of the cupboards. That’s been great!”

According to Woman And Home, the couple first began dating in 2013, while Marise was a student at The University of Pretoria and Pollard was playing for the Bulls.

The couple met as teens through Facebook and would go on to wed in 2017.

According to The Sun, Marise – a gold-medallist in athletics – claimed the rugby star was not her usual type.

She said: “He wasn’t the kind of guy I would usually fall for. But he was incredibly attractive to me! He was strong, muscular, and an introvert.”

TAKE A LOOK INSIDE THEIR UK MANSION

Handre and Marise have posted a look at their stylish home on their respective Instagram accounts.

The double-story face brick home boasts a white, black, and neutral colour palette with subtle decor, no doubt curated by social media influencer Marise.
