Amor Vittone: "This must be a happy Christmas"

Joost van der Westhuizen's estranged wife told YOU magazine, that this must be a happy Christmas for her family.

Even though the former Springbok star won't be able to hand his children their gifts or open his own, he wants nothing but happiness for his children, Jordan and Kylie.

Amor told the mag that they were planning to have a traditional family Christmas lunch with Joost's and her parents.

Joost, who was diagnosed with Motor Neuron Disease in 2012 cannot walk, talk or do anything for himself. His friend and care giver, Johan has to interpret Joost's muffled sounds.

"He says all he wants is for his kids to be happy and healthy. It's the most important thing to him," Johan told You magazine.
