BLACKPINK’s Lisa is once again at the center of dating rumors after a recent interview reignited speculation that she may have broken up with Frédéric Arnault.
The new attention came after Lisa appeared as the latest cover star for Vanity Fair. During the interview, the magazine noted that Lisa’s publicist strongly requested that her personal life not be discussed.
However, the article still mentioned the long-standing rumors linking her to Arnault and stated that the two “appear to have decided to call it quits.”
According to Koreaboo, the publication pointed out that fans had noticed that Arnault was absent from Lisa’s birthday celebration earlier this year, which added fuel to online speculation about a possible breakup.
Although neither Lisa nor Arnault have publicly confirmed a relationship or breakup, many fans immediately took the words from the interview as a major clue. For more than two years, Lisa and Arnault have been linked together after being spotted in several countries and at numerous public events.
The rumors first gained strength in 2022, when Arnault attended a BLACKPINK concert in Los Angeles and later shared a group photo online. Since then, the couple has continued to attract attention whenever they appear close together.
In 2024, they were seen together at the TAG Heuer Formula 1 Kith launch event in Miami. Arnault was also reportedly spotted at the premiere of Lisa’s acting project, The White Lotus, in Bangkok earlier this year.
Lisa says fans respect her privacy
Despite the constant attention surrounding her private life, Lisa recently admitted that her relationship with fans has changed for the better. Speaking to Vanity Fair, she said fans now seem to respect her boundaries more than before.
“I feel like after coming out and talking about how there’s no privacy for me, [fans] Now you respect him a lot more,” Lisa shared.
According to People, the singer also explained that life in the spotlight can sometimes become overwhelming. “Sometimes it’s just a bit much, sometimes I just want to be normal,” he said.
Fans reacted emotionally to her comments, many praising Lisa for being honest about the pressures of fame while remaining kind to supporters.
Outside of the dating rumors, Lisa continues to keep busy with her growing solo career. After releasing his solo album Alter Ego in 2025, she has branched out into acting, music collaborations, and upcoming film projects, while continuing activities with BLACKPINK alongside Jisoo, Jennie, and Rosé.
