Edited by the community

A South African blonde with green eyes, standing 5'7" with a slim build and natural 34D bust, she cuts a classic figure in front of the camera. Minki Van Der Westhuizen has built a career as both a model and a presenter. Her journey began at 16, when she was already modelling, and in 2002, during her final year of high school, she was selected for an international campaign by the fashion label Guess. She is represented by Max Models in Cape Town.

Her modelling career reached new heights with appearances in the South African Sports Illustrated magazine's 2002, 2003, 2006, and 2007 Swimwear editions, as well as a cover of GQ. In 2003, she was ranked #24 on Maxim's Hot 100 list and was voted the most popular pin-up girl by US troops serving in the Iraq War. The following year, readers of South African FHM voted her the winner of the 100 Sexiest Women in the World poll.

In May 2007, she co-presented the SABC 2 Afrikaans magazine programme Pasella alongside former Miss South Africa Cindy Nell. Her personal life has included two marriages. She married Constant Visser in October 2007 in Stellenbosch, but filed for divorce in November 2009. In June 2012, she married Saracens rugby player Ernst Joubert, and the couple have three daughters: Katerien, Elise, and Elsa.
