KATSEYE’s Lara is not new to being the centre of attention. Ever since her debut with the rest of KATSEYE in 2024, the star has made headlines for a myriad of reasons — from her sexuality to possible partners.
Most recently, her Instagram post has sparked backlash from fans.
With the KATSEYE members on vacation, Lara has seemingly decided to take a trip to India with her family. However, her alleged boyfriend — Orlando — also appears in photos shared by the star on Instagram.
Fans haven’t been the most welcoming to Lara’s relationship and alleged boyfriend. The main issue for them stems from his age. Orlando is allegedly 25, soon to turn 26 years old.
The gap between them, with Lara having recently turned 20, has been deemed “problematic” from fans. Others have also accused the alleged boyfriend of having lied about his age, further complicating the relationship in the eyes of Lara’s fans.

Hey so this is not a ‘haha Lara’s mum is clapping back at the haters’ I think it’s weird that she isn’t concerned her recently turned 20 yo daughter is with a man who is pushing 30 😕 https://t.co/PLn5rFgNx6
