BLACKPINK's Lisa Celebrates Friend's Birthday Amidst Romance Rumors with French Tycoon Heir

BLACKPINK member Lisa recently took to Instagram to celebrate a close friend's birthday.

On the 18th, Lisa shared a photo on her Instagram Story with the simple caption "HBD."

The photo featured a sleeping face of a friend, who is believed to be a former member of the group CLC, with whom Lisa once stayed at the same hotel. The two share a bond, partly due to their shared Thai nationality.

Currently, Lisa is rumored to be dating French businessman Frédéric Arnault, the fourth son of Bernard Arnault, chairman of the LVMH Group. Frédéric joined the watch brand TAG Heuer in 2017 and became its CEO in 2020. This year, he was promoted to CEO of LVMH's watch division.

Although Lisa has not officially confirmed her relationship with Arnault, they have been frequently spotted together, enjoying dates and vacations with his family. Fans consider their relationship to be an open secret.
