In recent weeks, Lisa has repeatedly been linked to Thai actor Blue Pongtiwat, who is three years younger than her. The speculation comes amid reports that she has ended her relationship with LVMH executive Frédéric Arnault. According to online reports, Lisa and Blue have been spotted together numerous times in Thailand, dining out, shopping, and even attending gatherings with family members. The two are also believed to have known each other since 2016, before Lisa officially debuted with BLACKPINK.
The latest reported sighting has led fans to believe that the pair may have grown even closer. While previous encounters were said to have taken place only in Thailand, the rumored couple has now reportedly been seen traveling together outside the country.
On the morning of August 1, Koreaboo reported that Lisa and Blue Pongtiwat were photographed together in Hong Kong by passersby. The person who shared the images also expressed support for the singer, writing that they had initially assumed the pair were simply close friends because they were often seen together in Thailand. However, seeing them reportedly travel overseas together made them reconsider their relationship. The post added that if the two were indeed dating, the fan hoped Lisa had found happiness and complimented Blue’s appearance.
Dating speculation has continued to grow as Lisa and Blue Pongtiwat have reportedly been seen together on multiple occasions over the past several months. Early sightings included the pair shopping together at a mall in Thailand, where they appeared relaxed and cheerful. The rumors intensified during Lisa’s 29th birthday celebration in Thailand this past March. Blue was reportedly present at the gathering, which was also attended by Lisa’s parents. Observers noted that he stood close to the singer throughout the event, prompting further speculation about the nature of their relationship.
In early July, the two were reportedly seen having dinner with Lisa’s parents at an upscale restaurant in Thailand. Shortly afterward, Blue was photographed accompanying the BLACKPINK member on shopping trips, with fans noting that he carried her shopping bags while quietly following behind her as she browsed stores. The images led many online users to describe him as displaying the behavior of a caring boyfriend.
As more photos and eyewitness accounts have surfaced, some fans have speculated that Lisa may be in a new relationship with the Thai actor. Others have suggested that their frequent public appearances together could indicate that she has moved on from her previous romance with Frédéric Arnault, although neither claim has been confirmed.
As of now, Lisa and her agency have not publicly addressed the dating rumors involving Blue Pongtiwat.
The attention surrounding Blue Pongtiwat has also intensified because of ongoing speculation that Lisa recently ended her relationship with Frédéric Arnault. More than a month ago, Chinese media outlet Sohu published a report claiming the couple had broken up, citing several observations, including that Arnault had reportedly stopped liking or interacting with Lisa’s social media posts since early April. The report also noted that Frédéric Arnault was recently seen attending an event with an unidentified woman and claimed that he and Lisa had not been publicly seen together for more than a year. During Paris Fashion Week in October 2025, Lisa attended an after-party hosted by a brand under the LVMH umbrella, while Arnault was reportedly at a separate Dior event.
Another detail highlighted by Chinese media was that Frédéric Arnault’s brother had reportedly unfollowed Lisa on social media, further fueling online speculation that the relationship had ended.
Chinese entertainment outlets have also claimed that the Arnault family has distanced itself from Lisa. These reports suggest that members of the billionaire family were the first to show signs of a breakup, leading some online commenters to speculate that Frédéric Arnault initiated the split after approximately three years together. However, none of these claims have been officially confirmed by either party.
Sohu has further reported that family considerations may have contributed to the alleged breakup. According to the publication, Frédéric Arnault’s parents were cautious about his relationship and reportedly had reservations about Lisa becoming part of the family. The report also claimed that differences in lifestyle, public image, and expectations within one of the world’s most prominent business families may have widened the gap between the couple, particularly following the controversy surrounding Lisa’s performances at Crazy Horse.
These reports remain unverified, and neither Lisa nor Frédéric Arnault has commented publicly on the speculation surrounding their relationship or the alleged reasons for its reported end.
