Manon from KATSEYE & Kid Laroi Dating Rumors: What Actually Happened

Manon and Kid LAROI

Based on verified sources, no official statements have been made by either Manon from KATSEYE or The Kid LAROI confirming or denying a romantic relationship. Here’s what actually happened:

Where the Rumors Started

VMAs After-Party Sighting (September 7, 2025)

The dating rumors began when Manon Bannerman (KATSEYE) and The Kid LAROI were photographed leaving the same VMAs after-party together on September 7, 2025. Sabrina Carpenter hosted the after-party at the Crane Club.

The Photos That Sparked Speculation

  • TMZ and fan-captured photos showed them walking outside at night after the party

  • The images show them not touching, not talking, and not appearing intimate with each other

  • They appeared to be walking separately rather than together

Official Statements: NONE

No Confirmation from Either Party

  • Neither Manon nor Kid LAROI has issued statements about dating rumors.

  • No representatives or management companies have commented on the speculation.

  • KATSEYE’s management has not addressed the rumors

  • Kid LAROI’s team has not made any statements regarding Manon

Context Behind the Speculation

Kid LAROI’s Recent Relationship Status

  • Kid LAROI confirmed his breakup with Tate McRae in July 2025 after over a year of dating.

  • On July 25, 2025, he stated they were on “good terms” following their split.

  • Both Kid LAROI and Tate attended the VMAs but reportedly avoided each other at the event.

In November 2024, KATSEYE member Megan mentioned Kid LAROI as a “dream collab” during an interview with React, with Lara agreeing that “Kid LAROI would be sick”. This suggests the VMAs interaction could be related to potential musical collaboration rather than romance.

Media Analysis of the “Evidence”

Cosmopolitan’s Assessment

Cosmopolitan analyzed the photos and concluded: “Considering the two are not 1) touching, 2) talking, or 3) seeming even the least bit intimate with each other, it feels safe to conclude that these two are just friends”.

Fan Reactions

  • Many fans on social media have been speculating without evidence

  • Some fans noted they were simply at the same event and left around the same time

  • No romantic behavior was captured in any of the available photos or videos

Manon’s Dating History Context

Previous Relationship Speculation

  • Manon has been linked to ENHYPEN’s Heeseung in the past, though nothing was ever confirmed

  • In June 2025, she posted joke videos with a male friend that fans initially mistook for boyfriend confirmation, but she clarified these were humorous posts mocking dating rumors

  • Manon has not publicly confirmed any romantic relationships

Current Status: Unverified Speculation

What We Know for Certain:

  • Manon and Kid LAROI attended the same VMAs after-party

  • They were photographed leaving the venue

  • Both are currently single (Kid LAROI recently broke up with Tate McRae)

  • No romantic interaction was documented

What Remains Speculation:

  • Whether they interacted at the party

  • The nature of any relationship between them

  • Whether this could lead to professional collaboration

Conclusion

The “dating rumors” between Manon from KATSEYE and The Kid LAROI are entirely based on them being photographed at the same event. No verified sources, official statements, or credible evidence supports a romantic relationship.

The speculation appears to be fan-generated based solely on their simultaneous presence at a public event, with media outlets noting that their body language and behavior in photos suggests friendship at most.

Bottom Line: This appears to be a case of social media speculation running ahead of facts, with no substantive evidence or official confirmation of any romantic relationship between the two artists.
