Taiwanese socialite's support for Cecilia Cheung revives Tse-Wong-Cheung saga

A recent social media post by Taiwanese socialite Xu Lily in support of actress Cecilia Cheung has brought renewed attention to the long-standing, complex romantic history involving Cheung, her ex-husband Nicholas Tse, and pop diva Faye Wong. This entanglement has spanned 26 years and continues to captivate public interest.

Cheung and Tse's relationship began in 1999, with rumors of mutual attraction during the filming of "Old Master Q." They officially dated, broke up, and then reunited before marrying in 2006. They had two sons, born in 2007 and 2010. However, their marriage faced turmoil after the 2008 "anarchy photos" scandal, leading to their divorce in 2011.

Meanwhile, Tse and Wong, who first dated in 2000 and had a highly publicized relationship, also experienced an on-again, off-again dynamic. After Tse and Cheung's divorce, Tse and Wong reportedly rekindled their romance in 2014, and their relationship has remained stable since.

Adding another layer to the narrative, reports suggest that Tse's father, veteran actor Patrick Tse, strongly opposed Nicholas Tse's potential remarriage to Faye Wong. Patrick Tse has consistently spoken highly of Cecilia Cheung, praising her as a mother and noting she never prevented him from seeing his grandchildren. He reportedly expressed regret for Cheung raising their two children alone.
