It was reported earlier this month that 45-year-old “Heavenly King” Leon Lai (黎明) and his 32-year-old wife of four years, Gaile Lok(樂基兒), are going through a divorce. Both parties neither denied nor confirmed the rumor, but recent evidence suggests that the rumor may be true. After getting married in Las Vegas in 2008, Leon’s workload increased. Tabloids suggested that it is their lack of time together which has caused the couple to grow farther apart throughout the years. Earlier this year, Leon and Gaile spent a few weeks in San Francisco, hoping for a chance to salvage their dying marriage. Leon also gifted Gaile with three houses in San Francisco, costing over $110 million HKD. However, the couple still decided to file for divorce. An American friend of Gaile said, “They are basically from two different worlds. Their lifestyle is completely different! Leon is materialistic and enjoys the luxuries of life. After all, he did buy his own yacht and personal jet. He likes to eat at high-class restaurants, while Gaile likes to live a simpler life. Even if she had to eat McDonald’s her entire life, she would be fine with it. Gaile tried to convince Leon to change, but he wouldn’t, so that’s why they have separated.” Gaile’s Divorce Assets According to the divorce law of the United States, assets acquired before marriage are considered to be individual. As a result, assets in their divorce will not be divided equally. It was also alleged that Gaile was not interested in having Leon to provide for her every month. The price in Gaile’s “divorce agreement” is set firm, which is $50 million HKD in cash and three houses. Currently, Gaile owns six houses that cost over $200 million HKD.

When the media asked if she is still “Mrs. Lai,” Gaile laughed a few times and avoided to comment. On the other hand, Leon was absent at the function he was invited to yesterday. Regarding his rumored divorce, Leon’s manager stepped up and said, “We have nothing to comment.” Creds: Sohu
