Ivy sincerely wants to save Harley from her unhealthy [[domestic violence|abusive]] relationship with the Joker. Accordingly, Poison Ivy despises the Joker, and the two exchange vicious banter at every opportunity. In the final storyline of the ''[[Gotham City Sirens]]'' series, Harley suggests that Ivy may be in love with her, an accusation that stuns her.<ref name="Gotham City Sirens' 2011"/> The following issue has Poison Ivy acknowledge that she may indeed love Harley, but the details of her love are never specified, and the series ended with the New 52 reboot before their relationship could be addressed.<ref name="ReferenceC"/>

In ''Harley Quinn'' (vol. 1) #8, Harley went on a vacation with Ivy to a nudist colony in which she tried to convince Ivy to move in with her, but while Ivy admitted that she loves Harley more than any other person on Earth and would love to spend as much time with her as possible, she is currently more dedicated to saving the environment. Harley was disappointed and very sad, but accepted it and the two parted with promises to meet again.<ref name=cbrbrian/><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.inverse.com/article/24269-harley-quinn-poison-ivy-dating-break-up-dc-comics|title=Poison Ivy Brutally Dumped Part-Time Girlfriend Harley Quinn|work=[[Inverse (website)|Inverse]]|date=November 23, 2016|first=Emily|last=Gaudette}}</ref>
