Chen Hsing-ju should stop giving opinions, lawyer advises: 'Live your own happy life'

Lawyer Wang Chih-teh has advised Chen Hsing-ju, daughter of former Taiwanese President Chen Shui-bian, to move past her contentious divorce from ex-husband Chao Chien-ming and focus on her own happiness.

“

I hope Chen Hsing-ju can move on from Chao Chien-ming and live her own happy life.

The public dispute between Chen Hsing-ju and Chao Chien-ming has continued since Chao admitted to having feelings for a nurse. Wang commented on the situation via Facebook, stating that Chen Hsing-ju's words were truthful and that she clearly loved Chao more than the nurse, enduring two years of "cold violence" before seeking divorce. He noted that her strong emotions indicated her deep affection for Chao.

Wang specifically commended Chen Hsing-ju's reaction when Chao claimed their children supported him. Her response, "That's great, I don't want them to have a strained relationship with their father," was described by Wang as exemplary of friendly co-parenting. He contrasted this with typical post-divorce behavior, where ex-spouses often speak ill of each other to their children and seek to align the children with themselves.

“

Chen Hsing-ju is telling the truth. She loved Chao Chien-ming more than Hsu Chien-chien. After enduring cold violence for two years, she still loved Chao Chien-ming and was seen through by lawyers.

Despite Chen Hsing-ju's apparent maturity, Wang urged her to cease making public statements. He cited a confidentiality agreement signed by the couple, warning that she could inadvertently violate its terms while expressing her emotions. He expressed hope that Chen Hsing-ju could "walk out of Chao Chien-ming's shadow and live her own happy life."

“

This is simply a model of friendly parents. You know, after many couples divorce, besides speaking ill of each other, they also want the children to stand on their side.

Additionally, Wang touched upon financial aspects of the divorce, expressing confidence that Chao Chien-ming would not abscond with the children's NT$23 million. He also commented on the low rent of NT$10,000 and the high salary of over NT$100,000, suggesting interested parties inquire with Chao's mother.

“

I can only say that Chen Hsing-ju is probably not the one who caused the divorce, because she might have still loved Chao Chien-ming until the last moment, it's just a pity that Chao Chien-ming's heart was no longer there.
