His wife, Martie de Jonge, shared their side of the story on Breakfast with Martin Bester.
"Johan supports the All Blacks. People can support who they want to. Yes, he made the video and it made South African angry, but it is out of control. My kids are being bullied."
Breakfast with Martin Bester invited Johan to the studio to share his side of the story.
"I was angry and I feel so bad. That's a different Johan in the video," he said.
"I've been an All Blacks fan since 1999. I like the way the All Blacks play rugby - they are incredible.
"I am not anti-Springbok, however, I did not expect the Springboks to win."
