Annie Yi and Harlem Yu separated for six years Annie Yi’s extramarital affair with Victor Huang was not the beginning of a marriage failure with Harlem Yu; that was the last straw. According to reports, defects started showing up in the couple’s relationship as early as the third year into their marriage. Yi left house several times because of the unpleasant atmosphere at home, and stayed in a hotel for as long as half a month. She moved out of Yu’s family officially four years ago on her birthday. Yi revealed several times after her marriage that she spent most of her time writing in office and only returned home at dawn. Four years ago, she wanted the family to move to Shanghai; they gave up the idea when the great grandmother fell and injured herself. The couple has been separated for several years, but they have an agreement to only reveal their separation when their son Harrison is older. According to the United States law, a couple can apply for divorce after separating for two years; their separation was an open secret in the entertainment circle. The exposure of her affair with Huang was a catalyst of their divorce announcement and made them come to a decision. It was also a revelation on the model couple’s actual marriage relation. At an event in Shenzhen on Sunday, Huang refused to comment on Yi and Yu’s divorce, claiming that “it is not the right time” for him to speak. Huang’s manager said, “The key to their divorce does not lie in Victor. His name is finally cleared.” On contrary to the utter damage that was brought to Yi’s image and reputation, Huang became famous in China and was recently named one of the four young actors with most potential. His appearance fee at events was also jacked up to NT$500,000 (about S$25,000). Original post: Yahoo News
