Anlia embarked on her journey to international television acclaim with her captivating debut on the prestigious HBO TV series, Raised By Wolves.
Venturing beyond borders, she brought her talent to a global audience, leaving an indelible mark with her performance.
Before her international breakthrough, Anlia had already established herself as a force to be reckoned with in the South African entertainment landscape.
It was her portrayal of the vivacious character Sasha Richter in the immensely popular KykNET series, Getroud Met Rugby, that garnered her widespread admiration and acclaim from audiences and critics alike.
Her achievements extend far beyond the screen and the microphone. Anlia’s dedication to her craft is evident in her academic pursuits.
She diligently pursued her passion for the performing arts, culminating in the successful completion of her Honours Degree in Performing Arts. Her academic excellence was duly recognized with the prestigious distinction of graduating Cum Laude in 2012.
Anila’s journey serves as a testament to her unwavering commitment to her craft, marked by milestones that showcase her versatility, talent, and dedication.
As she continues to captivate audiences both locally and internationally, her star continues to rise, illuminating the path for aspiring performers everywhere.
On the list of Anlia’s most cherished memories, one particular moment stands out as a beacon of pride and unity for her, encapsulating the essence of patriotism and sporting glory.
It was a momentous occasion, woven into the fabric of South African rugby history, when she, with grace and reverence, took center stage to lead the rendition of the beloved national anthem.
The backdrop was the iconic Cape Town Stadium in front of thousands of fans who had gathered to witness a clash of titans between the Springboks and Wales in 2022.
At the heart of this spectacle stood her husband Eben Etzebeth, who is also a proud Hollywoodbets Brand Ambassador and is a colossal figure in the rugby world, poised to etch his name in the annals of sporting greatness as he prepared to step onto the field for his 100th Test match in the storied green and gold jersey.
The Cape Town-born performer joined the Purple family alongside her two-time Rugby World Cup winner and this is what the couple had to say:
“We are obviously super excited and it’s really nice to do something together as well because we don’t get to do a lot of partnerships as a couple, so it’s very exciting to do this together,” Anlia said.
“And obviously, having moved to Durban and Hollywoodbets comes from here, it’s nice to join the community.
“I’m especially excited about the horses. I love the horses, so I’m very excited about that,” said Anila.
Her husband, Eben shared his excitement after joining Hollywoodbets:
“Hollywoodbets is a big part of the Sharks and for me when I got approached it was a thing I was interested in.
“And also, when the word came out that Anlia would be joining me, that made it even more exciting to join the brand and be part of it.
“We’ve already learned a lot of things about the company, everywhere they are and the things they are involved in and it’s something that our values are aligned with.”
