Previously on December 18, news outlet Hongxing News reported that sources claim Chinese actress Cecilia Liu (also known as Liu Shishi) and her husband, singer-actor Nicky Wu, secretly finalized their divorce and only occasionally meet for their five-year-old son.

The news has sparked widespread attention on social media, garnering hundreds of thousands of comments.

However, Cecilia Liu has since dismissed the divorce rumors, claiming that every claim about her marriage life is completely baseless. The actress also asked for internet bloggers and other SNS sites to cease spreading misinformation and groundless speculations, which affect her and her family’s life.

The two previously co-founded an entertainment company in Jiangsu, but this company has ceased operations. Currently, there are no financial connections between them.

Nicky Wu and Cecilia Liu met on the set of the hit 2011 drama “Scarlet Heart”, registered their marriage in 2015 and held a lavish wedding in Indonesia in 2016.

In recent years, Cecilia Liu has been active in the entertainment industry, securing numerous advertising deals and representing major fashion brands. Meanwhile, Nicky Wu has stepped back from acting to focus more on his child.

On his social media, Nicky Wu previously shared that becoming a father had transformed his life. He spends more time at home, with his sleep and daily routines revolving around his child. He learned to feed the baby with one hand while holding him in the other. Nicky Wu also attentively observes his son during tantrums to understand his needs, hoping to become a supportive and like-minded friend for his son in the future, guiding him toward his genuine desires.

Nicky Wu (54) debuted in the entertainment industry in 1988 as a member of the boy band Little Tigers (alongside Alec Su and Julian Chen). He gained fame through projects like “Treasure Raiders”, “The Bride with White Hair” and “The Lovers” (1994). Cecilia Liu, 17 years younger than Nicky Wu, is known for her roles in “The Legend of the Condor Heroes”, “The Imperial Doctress”, “Sound of the Desert” and “Chinese Paladin 3”. Before Cecilia Liu, Nicky Wu was married to actress Ma Yashu, with whom he divorced in 2009.
