Ethan Ruan and Tiffany Hsu surprised many when they ended their eight-year relationship last March. He was rumoured to have cheated on her with married female celebrity H, with internet sleuths alleging that it was Bai Baihe who came between the pair. Baihe’s manager denied the rumours.
News
of their breakup was confirmed after Tiffany moved out of their
apartment. This came despite Ethan’s declaration that “Tiffany Hsu is
still my woman”. In response, she mused, “Training myself to grow on my
own… Living my own life (and) concentrating on my career.” Ethan and
Tiffany were later said to have reconciled but the former couple has yet to make an official announcement.
More
than a year after their breakup, reports have surfaced that Ethan hit
his longtime manager in a fit of anger soon after the breakup. The
34-year-old is said to have been in low spirits following the split and
put all his effort into finding a way to win Tiffany back.
His
longtime manager and friend, Ah Jun, tried to snap him out of his funk
and advised him to concentrate on his acting to change Tiffany’s mind.
In response, Ethan is said to have shouted, “What do you know?!” before
grabbing his manager’s shirt and throwing a punch. After this purported
incident, Ah Jun is said to have resigned.
In response, Ah Jun
denied getting hit by Ethan and clarified, “I resigned because I wanted
to pursue a career behind-the-scenes.”
