Last Saturday (March 18), Taiwanese actress Alyssa announced that she had given birth to her second child with her current husband, Taiwanese actor Xiu Jiekai. On the same day, Alyssa’s ex-husband, Chinese businessman Sun Zhihao, uploaded a picture of a birthday card his 11-year-old daughter, Angelina Sun, whom he had with Alyssa, made for him.
As the businessman’s birthday was on March 6, netizens accused him of posting the card to draw attention away from Alyssa and spite her. “You only saw the card after more than 10 days, how busy can you get,” a netizen commented, only for Zhihao to fight back in his reply. “My daughter lives in Taipei and I live in Shanghai,” he said. “Yesterday, I flew to Taipei to see her, and saw the card she had made for me. Now, do you understand the situation?”.
Another issue that netizens took offence with was the fact that he did not cover Angelina’s face in the picture he had posted with her.
In the divorce agreement he had with Alyssa, she was not allowed to post pictures of Angelina’s face on the internet, or let her appear on television.
Thus, netizens have questioned if his post was appropriate. However, he replied, “That’s because the picture I posted was of Angelina when she was younger, not of her right now.” Though the businessman faced overwhelming criticism from netizens for his post, a lone user spoke up for Zihao and said: “Isn’t Alyssa making use of her daughter as well? Without her daughters, who would still remember her?” Alyssa’s fans took offence when Zihao responded to the comment with a “like.” They also condemned the user for taking news at face value.
Zhihao continued to stir the pot when he alleged that Alyssa’s accusations of domestic violence was untrue. “So when the news say there’s domestic violence, you’ll believe it? Did you actually see it happen?”
When a fan asked him if he was denying the fact that he had hit Alyssa, Zhihao replied, “I was only using your own logic to refute you,” neither denying nor confirming the reports his domestic violence at home.
Alyssa and Jiekai welcomed their first child, Bubu, in 2015; the actress was previously married to Sun Zhihao with whom she had her first daughter, Angelina. Sun Zhihao, on the other hand, tied the knot with Taiwanese model Novia Lin last year.
