“I Warned Her”Elton Jantjies’s Wife Speaks up

The ex-wife of disgraced former Springbok, Elton Jantjies, has revealed that she previously warned his recent ex-girlfriend about pursuing a relationship with him.

Elton Jantjies’ estranged wife, Iva Ristic, has responded to reports of his alleged acrimonious split from girlfriend Ashleigh Ogle. This comes after Ashleigh claimed to have “endured what no woman deserves” during their three-month relationship.

Elton had made headlines a year ago after confessing to a lengthy affair with Zeenat Simjee, who denied the allegations. Speaking to The South African, Iva Ristic shared her perspective on Elton and Ashleigh’s recent breakup.

“I have spoken to her only once, when she decided to move into our house, just to let her know that we were still legally married. I also warned her about certain issues she might deal with,” said Iva.

Reacting to their split, Iva added, “I don’t understand the urge to announce a break up of such a short period of time. Nor I will understand the need to put their private issues out there for the world to laugh at. Especially because she has a young daughter and we have three little boys who will surely read about this circus one day.”

Back in September, Iva had informed The South African that she was still legally married to Elton. Also, she claimed had “refused” to sign their divorce papers at that time.

She stated that Elton had given her the impression that he still wanted to work on their marriage. So, he asked her to be patient. Despite a year passing since the divorce request, he remained unwilling to sign the paperwork.
