Reeva Steenkamp’s sister has called out Oscar Pistorius over her claims that he “replaced” the woman he shot and killed with another who looks just like her new girlfriend, Rita Greyling.
The former Paralympian has been linked to the blonde bombshell, which bears a striking resemblance to the late model.
In 2013, Oscar killed Reeva after allegedly mistaking her for a home intruder. In January this year, he was released on parole after serving half of his murder sentence. He will serve the rest of his sentence under strict restrictions.
REEVA STEENKAMP’S SISTER REACTS TO OSCAR PISTORIUS’S NEW GIRLFRIEND
Over the weekend, news broke of Oscar Pistorius’s alleged new girlfriend, Rita Greyling.
According to reports, Oscar and Reeva’s family – who both have business empires – have known each other for “years.” However, it appears their friendship has recently turned romantic, reports the Daily Star.
Speaking to MailOnline, Reeva Steenkamp’s sister Simone Cowburn expressed her shock at the similarities between her sibling and Oscar’s new alleged girlfriend.
She said: “I have goosebumps and shivers going down my spine at this moment.
“What shocks me is that she looks so much like my Reeva. She is the same build, the same face and hair, even the same eyes. Is he that sick that he wanted to find a lookalike?”

“I have to ask myself that having killed Reeva, did he want to replace her with another?”
And that’s not the only similarity, Simone pointed out.
She continued: “But what then hit me that was even spookier was that when I looked at both their names, I saw that Reeva begins with an R and ends in an A, and so does Rita.
“I just went cold when I realised that. This thing just gets creepier and creepier for me.”
WHO ARE HER SIBLINGS?
Reeva Steenkamp was the only child of mother June and father Barry Steenkamp, who tragically died last year.
Her parents had other children from previous relationships; Simone was born to June, while Barry had a son named Adam Steenkamp.
Like the rest of the Steenkamp family, Adam believes Oscar Pistorius should never have been granted parole. He told The Sun: “Oscar is unrepentant and obviously still does not take responsibility for the murder of my sister.”
