Yu Zheng denies Wu Jinyan's pregnancy rumour
17 Sep - Yu Zheng has dismissed the notion that Wu Jinyan is now pregnant with her first child following her surprise marriage to Hong Yao.
The rumours sparked recently, after the producer took to social media following the announcement by wishing "double happiness", which many interpreted as him telling the world that Wu is pregnant.
However, Yu immediately denied it, saying that the couple's announcement coincided with his friend Lu Hu, who is also getting married.
"Isn't it a double happiness for me to have my good friend and my artistes' marriage news on the same day?" he said.
Yu also said that despite him previously denying the relationship rumour between Wu and Hong Yao, they have actually discussed everything regarding the announcement.
"Before the official announcement, we discussed with the platform, the crew, and the advertisers, and they all felt that Jinyan is a popular actor, so there is no problem with her marriage. The contract will be signed as usual, and there will be no impact at all," he added.
As to whether the "Story of Yanxi Palace" star will quit showbiz after marriage, the producer responded, "Are you not allowed to work after marriage? She is in contract until July next year and there will be a new costume drama to be launched soon."
Wu and Hong registered their marriage on 13 September, five years after they were first rumoured to be dating following their collaboration on "Story of Yanxi Palace".
