Addressing rumors of a break with her brother and creative partner, Finneas O’Connell, especially during her latest tour where she operated mostly solo, she was clear: “There has never been, nor will there ever be, a feud between Finneas and me. We might argue fiercely, but shortly after, we’re back to laughing and making music. That’s just how siblings are.”
She pointed out that working independently is not indicative of emotional or artistic distance but is a natural evolution in their personal and professional growth.
