Bannerman, who was raised in Switzerland, has been on hiatus since February 20, when HYBE x Geffen said she was stepping away to focus on her health and well-being.
She later removed KATSEYE from her Instagram bio in April, while the group performed at Coachella without her.
The situation changed again in August when Sophia Laforteza also began a hiatus, leaving KATSEYE operating as a four-member group.
The remaining members have continued promoting their WILD EP, appearing on Saturday Night Live and performing on the European leg of the WILDWORLD Tour.
It remains unclear whether Manon or Sophia will return before the North American leg of the tour begins on October 13 at Miami’s Kaseya Center.
KATSEYE is also scheduled to perform at the 2026 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in Los Angeles on October 18.
