Yang Mi and Hawick Lau announce divorce
25 Dec – After much speculations about their marriage, celebrity couple Yang Mi and Hawick Lau recently announced that they are divorced.
As reported on Epoch Times, the two stars released a joint-statement in which they admitted to have mutually agreed to end their marriage and signed the divorce papers earlier this year.
The couple also added that they will continue to raise their daughter Noemie in shared custody despite their divorce.
Although the news shocked fans of the couple, it didn't surprise netizens who have been speculating about the status of their marriage for the past couple of years.
It is noted that following their marriage in 2014 and the birth of their daughter the same year, Yang and Hawick didn't seem to slow their careers down. Yang also received the most criticisms from netizens as she was rarely photographed with her daughter or seen spending time with her family.
Rumours of marital woes between the two were further fuelled late last year, when the couple did not celebrate their third wedding anniversary.
