'Breakup Rumor With a Tycoon' Lisa, 'Bold Skinship' With a Palestinian-Background Model

A photo of BLACKPINK member Lisa in close contact with Palestinian model Fai Khadra at the after-party for the '2026 Met Gala' has been released.

Lisa attended the after-party that followed the main '2026 Met Gala' event on the 4th. In photos taken at the scene, Lisa is seen engaging in physical contact with Khadra, pressing her shoulder and cheek against his. The photo spread across social media (SNS) and other platforms.

Khadra is a Palestinian model and musician who was born in Saudi Arabia and raised in Dubai. In the past, he dated Jordyn Woods and Victoria's Secret model Devon Windsor, and he was also rumored to have been involved with actress Camila Morrone.

Lisa is also currently facing breakup rumors after dating rumors with Frederic Arnault, CEO of Loro Piana. The two were first drawn into dating speculation after being spotted together at a restaurant in Paris, France, in July 2023. Then, when Arnault did not attend Lisa's 29th birthday party held in Bali, Indonesia, on March 27, breakup rumors emerged. Since 2023, the two have not issued any official statement regarding the dating rumors.

At this year's Met Gala, Lisa became the first K-pop artist to be named to the host committee, a key group of figures involved in decision-making such as event operations and guest curation. Beyoncé, Nicole Kidman, Venus Williams, Anna Wintour, Sabrina Carpenter, Doja Cat, and Sam Smith also joined the committee.

For the event, Lisa was reported to have worn a custom dress made by designer Robert Wun and a Bulgari 50-carat oval sapphire necklace.
