The relationship between Jennie (BLACKPINK) and the mixed-race prince has caused a stir and much discussion among the public.

Shocking news on the 3rd day of Lunar New Year: Jennie (BLACKPINK) dating an exception in showbiz, the “half-hidden, half-revealed” details say it all?

According to KpopInsider, Jennie and Nico Hiraga are said to have celebrated Christmas together in Hawaii. And currently, the rumored couple is enjoying their winter vacation and skiing together in a happy atmosphere filled with laughter.

Images suggesting Jennie and Nico Hiraga are dating and skiing together have divided netizens, sparking lively discussions across social media platforms. A segment of the public believes Jennie is truly in love with the mixed-race prince born in 1997. Some even linked this to Jennie’s almost complete lack of promotion for BLACKPINK’s recent comeback, criticizing the idol for neglecting her romantic relationship.

However, the majority of viewers defended Jennie, presenting evidence to refute the claims that the singer is in a romantic relationship with Nico Hiraga. According to these fans, Jennie’s photos of her playing in the snow were taken in Aspen, USA, in February of this year. Meanwhile, Nico Hiraga enjoyed his winter vacation in Canada last year with his close friends, without Jennie present. Therefore, there is no truth to KpopInsider’s report that Jennie and Nico Hiraga enjoyed a winter vacation and went skiing together.

Furthermore, the photo of Jennie and Nico Hiraga celebrating Christmas 2025 together in Hawaii was quickly refuted by BLACKPINK fans. Fans assert that the picture of Jennie appearing in the evidence published by KpopInsider was not taken in Hawaii during last year’s Christmas.

Rumors of Jennie and Nico Hiraga dating first surfaced last September. At that time, the BLACKPINK rapper was spotted with Nico Hiraga in Canada. Prior to that, in 2024, the rumored couple were also seen together in Canada, looking very happy. As far back as 2021, they had publicly taken photos together, arm in arm, looking very close.

However, many fans still believe that Nico Hiraga and Jennie are just friends.
