SAINT SATINE member Lexie has left the upcoming HYBE x Geffen girl group before its official debut, with both parties confirming they have mutually agreed to part ways.

HYBE and Geffen, collectively known as HxG, announced Lexie’s departure in a joint statement shared on Weverse and social media on July 13.

The statement said, “Following extensive and thoughtful discussions with Lexie regarding the group’s future activities, both parties have mutually agreed to part ways.” It also confirmed that Lexie will not continue under HxG as a solo artist.

SAINT SATINE remains on course to debut in 2026. The group was formed with former contestants from The Debut: Dream Academy, including Lexie, Emily Kelavos and Samara Siqueira, alongside Tobi Sakura, who was selected through World Scout: The Final Piece in May.

Speculation about Lexie’s future had grown after recent photographs from the group’s activities in Los Angeles featured only the remaining three members. The group had moved in together in May following a joint appearance at Coachella 2026.

Lexie also addressed fans in a statement shared on her Instagram Story, reflecting on her time with the project. She wrote, “When I joined project SAINT SATINE, I truly believed it was the right place for me. I was excited by the presented vision and future plans we were going to be working towards together.”

She added, “But now we have come to the mutual decision that this is the right time for us to move forward separately.”

Encouraging fans to continue supporting the group, Lexie wrote, “Emily, Samara and Sakura are my forever sisters”.

She also hinted at future plans, added “I’m on my next adventure”.
