Social media is buzzing with speculation over the unexpected bond between influencers Grace Mondlana and Cyan Boujee, with many questioning whether their friendship is a balanced duo or a one-sided affair.

This comes after the ladies posted similar content on their TikTok pages from their separate Dubai vacations in late January 2026, where Cyan captured footage from their shared skiing adventure and posted photos of her bonding session with Grace and their puppies.

However, what caught many followers off guard was Grace's apparent failure to acknowledge Cyan by posting her despite having seemingly spent time together.

While Cyan posted pictures and videos showing her and Grace together, Mondlana merely captured herself and her breathtaking surroundings, raising red flags among online users about whether their apparent friendship was one-sided.

This comes after Grace booked Cyan to perform at her 2025 year-end function.

Reacting to the contrast in their posts, many online users raised the alarm on the ladies' behaviour while questioning the motive behind Grace's posts, and it wasn't long before she dismissed the allegations.

"You guys always have something to say. You never get tired of other people's business."

Meanwhile, a fraction of the online community speculated that the ladies' personal brands were the reason behind Grace's apparent efforts to hide their association, with Grace seen as the "polished" luxury influencer whose aesthetic might clash with Cyan’s more controversial and intense persona.

Speculation also turned toward Grace’s corporate ties, with fans suggesting that a public association with Cyan, who has faced serious allegations, including human trafficking and assault, could pose a significant risk to Grace's professional reputation and brand partnerships.

Whether this is a case of different posting styles or a strategic move to keep their brands separate, the silence from Grace Mondlana has spoken volumes to her followers.
