Former Springbok flyhalf Elton Jantjies, who was banned for testing positive for the prohibited substance Clenbuterol, is back on the dating scene and is in a relationship with Loren Jenneker.
The athlete has had his share of drama as far as the department of love and relationships is concerned as news of his affair with then Springbok dietician, as well as his divorce has been making the news as much as news of his career.
Elton has managed to find love again, and this time it is with professional fashion model and former Miss SA finalist in 2019 Loren Jenneker who admitted to not knowing who Elton was when they met in a restaurant.
Speaking to City Press, the couple revealed that it was love at first sight and that they had seen each other since the faithful day that they met. Loren also made it known that she is not interested in the athlete’s previous drama and his past relationships. “Whatever happened in the past is not my business. It happened and it’s over now. I wasn’t there for that part. It was interesting to see how certain people approach the relationship,” she says.
The couple have both made their relationship Instagram official as Loren was the first to post a series of pictures and videos of the both of them enjoying their time together. Elton followed with a post of his own, which was a screenshot of his partner’s original post.

The couple seem to be in a good space, and according to Elton, they have already met each other’s family and both were incredibly accepting of their union.
Elton is optimistic not only about his love life but his career as well, as he believes that there are exciting things on the horizon for him. “Things are going incredibly well for me – on the love front and elsewhere. We are still quite new, but both of us have taken the shot high!” the athlete says to City Press.
