I sincerely love it lol, it came from Africa to Brazil

It is strange because whites and blacks do not speak so much there, but I do not know they are pure there I do not know, but that’s fine! : D
White South African DNA is 5% not European on average.
I think so, they say it’s impossible to be pure white, but for me it’s funny that she doesn’t have the blood of that country, she should have 10 percent African descent or something :S
It’s possible to be of just European background. 10 percent is actually very high and most White South Africans do not have that much African descent. Many have less than 1 percent or none.
Afrikaner genome is not up to 10% Sub-Sarahan African. The non European part actually contains various contributions from Africa (either Bantu and Khoisan), Madagascar, South Asia, Indonesia and China too. Basically some of the first German and Dutch settlers (not the French Huguenots inbred), in mid 1600s/early 1700s, were lonely men who married either local women or enslaved ones from Indian Ocean countries. Thus their descendants are in the genome of any Afrikaner person as you see in this site. This is how a random Afrikaner person DNA test looks like: https://preview.redd.it/tfg5hjjd9y741.jpg?width=1181&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8f2e229c3021683fb969c9e8b88277dee6f94c00
Reddit has only a few people who posted online and people usually post more interesting results. There have also been recent migrations from Europe to South Africa. Many White Europeans also bred with close family members. They are also White south Africans. After 1700s. So unless they do a DNA test, we can assume what is shown here.
Depends on the person/families and parts of South Africa they come from. Many White Europeans in South Africa do live in White communities and have for generations. There are different parts of South Africa though. In her case, it’s shown to be just European.

If “Grobbelaar” is her mother’s maiden name, she descends from Johan Grobler and Geertruyd Knoesen (the daughter of Cornelis Knoetzen and Dirkje Helms). Johan was born, c. 1678, in Tangermünde, Germany and came to South Africa in about 1708. Geertruyd was the daugher of a Danish immigrant and of a German/Dutch mother.

“Petsch” is an unusual surname for South Africa. She might descend from this man (https://www.stamouers.com/stamouers/surnames-n-to-q/385-peach-ricardo-augustino) but I’m not sure.
I think Grobbelaar is her mother’s maiden name. I searched on social media and there are a lot of South Africans with the surname Grobbelaar.
Curiously, I could not find any with the surname Petsch. What are the chances her father is a recent European immigrant to South Africa?
> There are a lot of South Africans with the surname Grobbelaar
Yes. The most famous one: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bruce_Grobbelaar
>What are the chances her father is a recent European immigrant to South Africa?
_ I think it’s very possible.
