- Frédéric Arnault, 31, son of LVMH chief Bernard Arnault, is reportedly single again after a rumored breakup with K-pop star Lisa Manobal.

- Arnault, who leads the Loro Piana brand, and Manobal, a member of Blackpink, have not commented on the breakup rumors.
Frédéric Arnault, the 31-year-old heir to the LVMH luxury empire, is reportedly back on the market, fueling speculation about his relationship status with K-pop superstar Lisa Manobal of Blackpink.
While the couple never publicly confirmed their romance, reports of their alleged separation have gained traction, particularly after the magazine Vanity Fair suggested they may have gone their separate ways. The pair, known for keeping their private lives discreet, has remained silent on the rumors, with Lisa's representatives reportedly requesting that questions about her personal life be avoided, further intensifying speculation.
Whispers of their romance began in 2022, and they were frequently spotted together in various European cities and Los Angeles. Arnault was seen attending Blackpink concerts, and Manobal made appearances at LVMH events. Their closeness led to media speculation about a potential marriage, especially after Manobal was rumored to have spent time with the Arnault family, whose wealth is estimated at over $150 billion.
However, signs of trouble emerged earlier this year when Arnault's absence from Manobal's 29th birthday celebration in March sparked widespread doubt. While she celebrated with friends, Arnault was notably absent. Frédéric, who now heads the Loro Piana brand, and Lisa, who has also ventured into acting with a role in "The White Lotus," have yet to comment on their relationship status, leaving fans and media to speculate about the future of their high-profile romance.
