People raised relationship suspicions when they noticed that Lisa's photos taken during her trip to Italy were similar to the photos taken by the Arnault family.
Looking at Lisa's photos and video on her Instagram, they all coincide with the post of Géraldine Guyot-Arnault, the second daughter-in-law of the LVMH family and the fiancée of the youngest son.
BLINKs then emphasized the similarity of rock formations, the ambiance, and the clear cyan waters in both posts.
Confirmed. Lisa was on the Arnault’s vacations with their respective girlfriends, including her and apparently they already accepted her as Frederic's girlfriend. Only with them and not with Bulgari team as others said.#Lisa #Blackpink pic.twitter.com/VGkjHfUHVB

These images also added to speculation that Lisa may have accompanied her rumored boyfriend on the family trip, citing Frédéric Arnault's posting of photos taken with her brothers around the same time.
Initially, some were defensive, claiming that Lisa was on a different group trip, such as for BVLGARI.
However, the luxury brand's CEO Jean-Christophe Babin denied it and clarified that although Lisa is always welcome to join them on their trip, he is on a family vacation with his wife and kids.
BLACKPINK Lisa, TAG HEUER CEO Frédéric Arnault Dating?
This is not the first time that Lisa was embroiled in dating speculation with Frédéric.
Earlier, the two personalities were rumored to be dating when Lisa, who was staying in France at the time, was seen twice with the second-gen chaebol at a restaurant in Paris.
In addition, Frédéric was said to support his rumored girlfriend by attending BLACKPINK's concert in Los Angeles (LA) in November 2022. His photo with BLACKPINK was even posted on Instagram.
Frédéric Arnault is the third son of Bernard Arnault, the head of the world's largest luxury group LVMH. He is the CEO of luxury watch brand TAG HEUER and the world's richest man by Forbes.
YG Entertainment, which did not take a particular stance on Lisa and Frédéric's initial dating rumor, remains silent on the matter.
On the other hand, BLACKPINK celebrated their 7th debut anniversary. The members are currently discussing contract renewals with YG Entertainment.
According to Researcher Lee from Hana Securities:
"BLACKPINK's renewal of contract has not been confirmed yet as there is no public announcement already past the debut date (August 8), but it is highly likely for them to renew their contracts. If the renewal is successful, there will be tight performance every quarter, and accordingly, YG's stock price will be eased."
