Never mind Springbok player, Franco Mostert is giving dad goals after he dressed up as a tiger and a lollypop for his little girls.

 

Global (18 April, 2023) — If your daughter wants you to play dress up for her birthday, you play dress up for her birthday. Springbok superstar Franco Mostert understood the assignment not once, but twice this year for both his daughters’ birthdays, and it’s nothing short of wholesome parenting.

Going above and beyond the general dress-up assignment, Franco Mostert channelled played the part, adorning a giant lollypop look and rocking a tiger-skin suit to make his daughters’ days extra special.

From Lock to Lollypop and Springbok to Tiger

In late March, Franco pulled out all the stops to become a lollypop for 6-year-old Joia-Belle’s kaleidoscopic birthday bash.

Committing to the cause again, he exchanged springbok for tiger in celebration of Jemi-Milja 4th birthday upcoming in May, where both he and Juan-ri whipped out matching tiger suits in light of their daughter’s love of the animal.

Taking to Instagram, Juan-ri shared the snaps of the tiger-enthused party on the shores of Japan, where the family were able to spend time together before she and the kids ventured back to South Africa.

Given that Franco won’t be with his daughter on her actual birthday, locals agree that he definitely made up for it!

Loving the energy, social media users commended the couple’s commitment to their children’s happiness. As for Franco, many also give him the nod-of-approval, sharing that he wins dad of the year for his efforts.
