“Single mom, engagement with conglomerate…” Song Joong Ki’s alleged girlfriend, there was a “big twist”

There are many rumors related to actor Song Joong Ki’s announcement of dating a British woman.

First of all, Korean netizens posted pictures saying that Song Joong Ki‘s girlfriend is British actress Katy Louise Saunders and that she gave birth to a daughter while dating an Italian conglomerate in the past.

However, in 2017, Italian media outlet vitadamamma mentioned that the baby is the child of a close friend, not Katy’s daughter, and Katy is the baby’s “godmother” (nanny). vitadamamma reported that Katy’s close friend gave birth to a daughter, which was also a joy for Katy.

In fact, on Katy’s friend’s SNS, which was mentioned by vitadamamma, there were pictures of Katy Louise Saunders and the baby that Korean netizens claimed to be Katy’s daughter.

Also, there were no reports of Katy being pregnant or giving birth when rumors surfaced that she was dating Giovanni Tronchetti Provera, son to the CEO of famous car tire company Pirelli, in 2013.

In other words, the baby in the pictures uploaded by Korean netizens is actually Katy’s friend’s child. There is a possibility that it was misrepresented by domestic netizens.

Katy Louise Saunders, whom Korean netizens speculate as Song Joong Ki’s girlfriend, was born in 1984 and is one year older than Song Joong Ki. Born to a British father and a Colombian mother, she was born in England and graduated from the prestigious Bocconi University. She spent her childhood traveling between London and Italy, and later lived in Milan.

In the past, she worked as an actress and is known for her appearances in films such as “Los Borgia” (2006), “Third Person” (2013) and “Lizzie McGuire Movie” (2003). However, she is reportedly retired from acting with no new activities in a long while.

Meanwhile, Song Joong Ki’s side acknowledged dating rumors “Actor Song Joong Ki is meeting a British woman with good feelings“, but drew a line on the groundless pregnancy rumors “We ask for your understanding that we cannot check any information other than the fact that they are dating“, “We have no plans to respond to pregnancy rumors“.

Regarding the rumor that Song Joong Ki prepared for an audition for a British BBC drama under the influence of his British girlfriend, Song Joong Ki’s side said, “He did not audition. He simply had a meeting with an official. If there is a good work, he will appear without any domestic or overseas restrictions.“
