Amor Vittone holds back tears as her heart bursts with pride

Cape Town -  Holding back the tears, Channel24 spoke to proud mom, Amor Vittone about her daughter Kylie's latest athletic achievement.

Kylie, who is 13, was named the captain of athletics junior to SP division at Dainfern College on Monday.

Following in her famous mother's footsteps, who excelled in tap and modern dance as a teenager,  Kylie is an accomplished high jump and hurdles athlete. 

"Kylie is a strong leader, and her duties will include keeping her team members calm and motivated, as well as assisting the teachers," says Amor. 

"It's a massive achievement. She is captain of equestrian as well. After every heartache, she bounces back. Kylie trains morning and night, while still doing her homework," the mother-of-two adds.

The happy mother adds that Kylie's best trait is how "humble" she is, saying: "She has the best personality." 

"My children don't have au pairs or tutors. Mommy has to drive them around - with no extra help, except my parents. I work my schedule around my kids' "

Amor ends off by saying: "I am so proud and happy. At the moment, Kylie is fourth in the world [equestrian], and there is a high possibility that she will represent South Africa in Hong Kong at the World Cup."
