A large Christmas tree with gifts under it. The smell of delicious roasts and baked goods and the sound of children running and laughing as they chase each other around the house.

If definitely feels a lot like Christmas in the Morule household as rapper Khuli Chana and his wife DJ Lamiez Holworthy host their families to celebrate Christmas together, as a unit.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Anyone who works in the entertainment industry can confirm that this is the busiest time of the year for artists because they have gigs one after the other.

But no matter how busy they are, Khuli and Lamiez say Christmas Eve and Christmas Day are off limits.“We both work extremely hard, but we have made it our family tradition to put everything on hold for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day so that we can focus on our loved ones. Then we go back to work on the 26th,” she says.

The celebrity couple reluctantly shares that they do not cook, but Lamiez insists that she makes a mean chicken curry.

“My mom and aunts cook. I just make sure everyone has everything they need and they are all comfortable.”“I am even learning how to braai now, because I want my son to enjoy meat that I have made. This Christmas is particularly special for our family because it is our son’s first Christmas.

“This time of year is great because our moms are busy cooking in the kitchen cooking, and we are like kids again and we’re relaxing and enjoying the food.”

The family also enjoys watching Christmas movies together and introducing all the kids to the classics the couple grew up watching.“Home Alone is definitely on the list of movies. The kids are also starting to like Matilda. We also watch movies like Little Rascals. We watch all the Christmas movies that are on the different streaming platforms, and we just have a movie marathon.”

Having grown up or being raised differently, it is important for them to start their traditions.

“We did things a certain way at home when I was kid, Lamiez also grew up doing certain things and now as a family we are starting our own traditions. I think it is okay to borrow this and that from what the parents did, but we are doing things our way. Our home, our rules,” he says.

Lamiez is not shy to admit that she had a crush on Khuli when she was a schoolgirl.
