The family recently moved to Japan after spending a year in South Africa. Layla previously spoke about the move on Instagram, describing it as bittersweet.

“Missing a family wedding and being away for our ninth festive season are the harder parts of this rugby journey… but always grateful for the doors it opens too,” she wrote.

Layla said the family had enjoyed their time in South Africa since returning earlier last year. She added that leaving again was difficult.

“What a year in SA, especially for the kids – beautiful friendships, teachers they adored, a sense of home, and so many memories. Leaving that behind makes the goodbyes so much heavier,” she added.
