Chris Eubank Sr was spotted walking side-by-side with his son ahead of his showdown against Conor Benn despite their public family feud.
They entered the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium together arm-in-arm on Saturday night in a shocking sign that they have finally buried the hatchet.
Former world champion Eubank Sr had branded his son 'disgusting' for accepting the fight with Benn but he will now be ringside after the surprise U-turn.
Only last week, Eubank Sr told SecondsOut that he would be skipping the bout, saying: 'I will not be an accomplice to their stupidity, their circus.'
Eubank Sr was adamant he would not return to Jr's corner after he smashed an egg on Benn's face and was forced to take on a significant weight cut.
He even blasted his eldest son's conduct as a 'disgrace'.

Eubank Jr held out hope that his father would change his mind despite not speaking for 'years', admitting 'these things are what pain is to me'.
But the crowd at Tottenham's stadium was reduced to a frenzy after a black car pulled up and Eubank Sr stepped out, quickly followed by his son.
Spectators screamed and Benn - watching on via a monitor backstage - took in the moment the Eubanks announced their sensational reunion on the world stage.
Eubank Jr even shadow boxed with his dad in emotional pre-fight scenes, suggesting they have set their grievances aside on the night of his life.
Until now, Eubank Sr had not been in his son's corner since 2019 after he chose to go his own way, a decision that greatly disappointed the boxing great.
'My old man was always next to me, and it got to a stage where I decided that I needed to walk my own path,' Eubank Jr said earlier this year.
'He was not happy with that decision. That's the start of it.'
Eubank Jr also revealed the tragic death of his brother Sebastian, aged just 29 in 2021, 'destroyed a large part' of his relationship with his father.

He was criticial of his son's bout against Benn and even branded him as a 'disgrace'
'We don't talk, he has shown no interest in my career for a long period of time now,' he said in October. 'He's shown no interest in me in a long period of time.
'As somebody who's lost a son, I think that's a pretty insane thing [for my dad] to be doing, an insane way to be acting – to kind of not be speaking to your remaining kids.
'You know what? For a long time, I tried to kind of act like it was cool. People would ask me, "How's your dad?" "Yeah, we're good." But I got sick of that s***, man. It's b******. We're not cool, we're not OK, and people need to know.'
Eubank Sr beat Benn's father, Nigel Benn, in 1990 before they shared a controversial draw three years later.
