Zhang Ziyi bonds with her stepdaughter


Chinese actress Zhang Ziyi recently took part in a photoshoot for a fashion magazine, her first since giving birth late last year.

The actress also posed for a picture together with the crew after the shoot. Ziyi was seen posing with her arms around her stepdaughter Apple Wang in the picture, showing off their close relationship.

Apple’s biological mother, Chinese model Ge Huijie has always been critical of Apple’s father, Chinese singer Wang Feng, and Ziyi. The 29-year-old often takes to her Weibo to lash out at the couple although she declared a ‘ceasefire’ earlier last month.

Recently, it was reported that the model was detained by the police for suspected drug abuse. In response to the news, netizens commented that Apple might be in better hands if she was looked after by Ziyi due to Huijie’s wayward behaviour.

Huijie used to date Wang Feng and gave birth to their daughter in 2005. The couple went separate ways shortly after and Wang Feng raised Apple on his own.

After Wang Feng split from Huijie, he went on to marry Kang Zuoru, who gave birth to his second daughter, Jingyi in 2012. The couple went through a divorce the year after and Ziyi and Wang Feng tied the knot last year after the Chinese rocker proposed at her birthday. The couple welcomed their first child, Xing Xing, in December the same year.
