The two had a fallout last year when Pearl posted a picture on Instagram that was shot by Austin without crediting him.

Click here for that full story.

We thought the two had buried the hatched, but clearly not...

The photographer posted Pearl Thusi's pictures with a snide comment and Pearl was not happy about that.

He captioned the images, "yesterday I shot one of your favs but I don't think she saw me"

He thene promised to explain why he did what he did

But decided to vent via Instagram live instead... (those of you not familiar with Instagram live need to know that it is a pointless waste of data because it disappears as soon as the video's creator ends the live stream. So if you never watched it, it's like it never happened). 

Pearl thought the comment was a dig at her, and wasted no time in responding to his initial tweet.

What do you think, was it necessary for Pearl to respond?

Update: Malema has apologized to Pearl in order to truly bury the hatchet and move on. 

While some think he was forced to apologize to her, the photographer insists he did it of his own accord. 

Pearl has yet to respond but then again, not message is also a message. All she did was retweet these... 

Yikes. We get why Austin is mad but in this case, he chose the wrong one to start with. Either way, it's not like either of them are going to stop working soon, it just makes things awkward because now they might have to start avoiding each other at events.
