South African content creator Lasizwe Dambuza and his brother, Lungile Mcunu, were reunited for a family Christmas photoshoot months after their controversial fallout.

The once-close siblings apparently locked horns after years of successful collaborations, and were said to not be on speaking terms. However, this seemed to change when they were pictured together in a photoshoot with their family.

Taking to his Instagram page, Lasizwe shared his family Christmas photoshoot, posing with Lungile, their sister Khanyi Mbau, her daughter Khanukani, and the rest of their family members in matching all-black outfits.

The photos were released just days after Lasizwe checked himself into a mental health facility, where he cited experiencing personal battles. Despite his feud with Lungile, Lasizwe thanked his siblings for their support and "holding his hand" through the process.

The pair's feud was reportedly over royalties, with critics suggesting that Lungile was furious for not receiving his share of the proceeds from his brother's YouTube channel.

However, Lasizwe revealed in a statement that their tension was over the family taxi business, which their late father Menzi Mcunu left them with.

"I no longer want to be affiliated with the family taxi business, and that's hurting him because he's so invested in carrying the family legacy."

Lasizwe stated that he is not interested in the taxi business anymore and would rather pursue what works for him: social media and entertainment, and wishes that Lungile would respect his decision.
