Nicholas Tse Drops Divorce Intentions in Consideration of 2 Sons’ Fates

Six months ago, Cecilia Cheung (張栢芝) and Nicholas Tse’s (謝霆鋒) marriage experienced turbulence. When Appledaily reported that Cecilia had taken a friendly photo with ex-flame, Edison Chen (陳冠希), this instigated the marital strife between Cecilia and Nic. Allegedly, Cecilia even threatened to get divorced from Nic as her strategy in the argument.

Currently filming in Malaysia, Nic was in depressed spirits and did not speak to the press. According to Nic’s friend, Nic had a soft heart and did not want his sons, Lucas and Quintus, to grow up in a single-parent family. This may allow room for Nic and Cecilia to reconcile their marriage and drop divorce intentions. On another note, Cecilia appeared with a wide smile while filming on location in Shenzhen last night, indicating her good spirits.

Nic and Cecilia have been married for five years. In the aftermath of the nude photo scandal with Edison Chen, Cecilia brought Lucas to Thailand to visit Nic during filming. Allegedly, Cecilia knelt on the ground and begged Nic for his forgiveness. Nic’s friend said, “At the time, Nic said that he will not get divorced with Cecilia due to consideration for his son.”

Recently, Cecilia’s friend advised her that in order to control her husband, she must control his finances. As a result, Cecilia requested Nic to transfer various property ownership titles to her name. To pacify Cecilia, Nic agreed to her demands.

Since the exposure of Cecilia and Edison’s friendly reconciliation aboard a common air flight, she text-messaged Nic non-stop to explain the situation. However, Nic wished to retain distance to reflect over matters quietly.  Allegedly, Cecilia asked for a divorce to turn the tables. Nic’s friend said, “Nic has a very soft heart. He truly does not want to get divorced. Problems arose in their marriage half a year ago. Cecilia listened to many people’s advice that a woman needs to control her husband’s finances in order to have the upper hand. However, the ensuing results turned out to be very offensive. However, Nic experienced the pain of his parents’ divorce as a child. He did not want his sons to follow his old path. After calming down, it is very easy for Nic’s heart to soften.”

Tabloids Claim Nicholas Tse Has a Mistress

Nic is currently filming The Viral Factor <逆戰> in Malaysia. Production halted for the last two days and cast and crew members pursued their own interests to take advantage of the filming break. However, Nic remained inside the hotel due to his marital problems. Remaining in contact with Nic throughout the ordeal, Nic’s EEG manager, Mani Fok (霍汶希) said, “He is currently filming and many action scenes require his participation rather than using a stunt double. Earlier, Nic filmed a scene where he had to jump from a 8-storied building. He did not tell EEG in advance about this stunt. I want him to focus his concentration first and not think any troubling thoughts.”

Asked whether Nic was distracting himself with work, Mani said, “I don’t think so. Aside from filming, he normally does not go outside.” Mani said that she normally does not ask about Nic’s private matters. “This is to prevent additional exchanges will will trouble him further.” Mani indicated that after completing The Viral Factor, Nic will quickly film a mainland series. “Nic will have several days of rest in between the projects. I suggested that he does not return to Hong Kong, since it will not be enough time for him to rest anyway.”

Yesterday, a mainland report claimed that Nic had a mistress in Beijing, which provoked Cecilia’s anger in wrestling financial control over Nic’s assets. Mani denied the rumors, “It’s unnecessary to respond to an ‘insider’s scoop’ everyday. These news are nonsensical. There is no need to respond to anything that is false.” Mani was confident that there was no third party in Nic and Cecilia’s relationship. “For a man who stays home aside from work, it’s very hard for him to keep a mistress.”

Cecilia Cheung Appeared in High Spirits

Filming in Shenzhen yesterday with Korean actor, Kwon Sang Woo, Cecilia wore a white plunging evening gown for a ball scene in her new movie. Prior to filming the scene, Cecilia chatted heartily with the male crew members and smiled widely. Her good spirits, indicating that the marital crisis may have passed.

Cha Siu Yan Defends Her Source of Information

Radio host, Cha Siu Yan (查小欣), exposed the inside scoop for Cecilia and Nic’s marital dispute and revealed that Cecilia demanded Nic transfer property ownership titles to her name. Ms. Cha was publicly criticized by Nic’s father, Patrick Tse (謝賢), for her expose. Asked whether Nic’s mother, Deborah Dik, gave her the inside scoop, Ms. Cha said, “I will not respond!” Ms. Cha stressed that she spoke only the truth and did not fabricate the contents. “I am not afraid. I am reporting the truth. If this is not the truth, then someone will step forward to clarify the matter.” Regarding the source of her information, Ms. Cha said, “I have to protect my witness.” Exposing Cecilia’s news, was Ms. Cha afraid she will instigate her anger? “No, I am just afraid if it is not the truth!”

Excerpt from Appledaily

Jayne: The outcome that everyone hoped for! Cecilia’s bright smile and Nic’s friend’s inside scoop sounds as if they may have settled their differences for the time being.

Cecilia, stop listening to friends who advise you on how to control your husband! You have even angered Nic’s mother, who you need on your side if you truly want this marriage to work out in the long run!

  1. Funn,
    You guessed right about the part in Cecilia’s motivation to control Nic’s finances as an intention to control her husband.

    I think Mani said it best that if a man rarely ventures outside of his house except for work, then he has less opportunity to keep a mistress.

    1. I should be in gossip radio eh? Or a therapist?

      I will even say I do not believe there is any 3rd party involved.

      But if a man is really keen, believe me he will find the time.

      1. Which is why he is going for kept mistress. Available when HE is available.

    2. I don’t think he has a mistress. He looks loyal to Cecilia and his kids

  2. I think everyone feels that Ms. Cha’s source is most likely Nic’s mom.

  3. There’s another article with a tweet from Nic’s camp again denying that there’s any marital problems. His company said that they talk on the phone everyday. Nic’s partner from his newly opened company also denied about Cecilia forcing Nic to sell his shares as stated earlier.

    Here’s the link: http://news.xinmin.cn/rollnews/2011/06/03/11040731.html

    I think the media blew their marital problem out of proportion. In any marriage, there will be arguments–I think theirs are amendable.

    1. “They” as in Nic and Cecilia talk on the phone everyday.

    2. If no problems exist, why not come out to address the media so all these rumors can end. Cecilia can’t afford all bashing she receiving especially since she just came back from a nasty scandal. Some media sites are now calling her the “scandal-plague actress”. The whole thing is big mess! A simple statement could end all this drama.

      1. She tends to wait, assess the problem, then address. It could also be because she’s extremely busy filming or she thought that whatever she says, people will not believe because she recently lied about interacting with Edison on the plane. Or, she just wants her husband to take care of all the mess. So far, it’s only her husband’s camp doing the talking.

      2. Agree with Nelly that Cecilia should clarify the matters just like Bernice did. When only one side is only doing the talking, the other party is usually to be blamed. I was beginning to have reservations for Bernice (but I was very iffy since I believed in her character before), but I was glad she stepped out to clarify the matter. Like Cloud said, Cecilia is probably busy with her own things and will probably clarify later, which was also Bernice’s case.

        Anyway, I’m extremely glad that they were finally able to settle their disputes and I hope Cecilia treasures what she has! 😀

      3. I agree and I think that if anyone stays silent, it just fuels the assumption that the rumours are true. I have noticed through the years that if rumours are not ridiculous and occur over and over again that they usually turn out to be true. I guess it was that way in this case too.

  4. The going to Thailand and kneeling to ask for forgiveness part contradicts with what Cecilia said in her interview. Cecilia said he husband didn’t say anything when the pictures came out except ‘Hubby is here. Anything I’ll help you block.’

  5. i’m sorry but this girl is a mess, i hope she gets help.

    1. Although their problems seemed to have subsided and Cecilia is now in happy spirits again (judging from the photos), they still probably get marriage counseling, like Jayne mentioned. Or psychological therapy for Ceci at the least.

      Nic and Ceci didn’t have the happiest childhood and it was relatively rough compared to most celebrities, so I’m not surprised if they are disillusioned.

      1. I think this may only be temporary unless Cecilia learns her lesson and becomes more about how to handle her problems. She should also stop listening to those foolish friends of hers and learn how to make her own decisions and learn how to treat her husband better. Even though Nic is not divorcing for the time being for the sake of his kids, who knows if the issue of divorce will come up in the future or not if she continues to behave the way that she does??? A man can only take so much even if it is for his kids.

      2. @ HTS: Why you are sure it’s Ceci’s fault in all?

      3. @Fox,
        I am NOT saying that I am positive that it is her fault, but just making an assumption just like most people are since most of the reports put her in a bad light. She also has not said a word to defend herself. But seriously, who really knows whose fault it is????!!!

      4. @Fox,
        I also wonder why do you always aim at me?? Don’t you notice that many people here and I many who read the reports mostly think that it is her fault too?

      5. Uhm because I use recent comments check. So maybe I miss some others?

  6. I think Cecilia is wrong to demand that all the property and finances be transferred to her name. It just shows how insecure she is.
    The harder she tries to control him, the bigger the marriage problems.

    She sounds like she doesn’t have much of a mind of her own if she is going to listen to “friends” advice to control her husband.
    Marriage is about love, trust and mutual respect for each other…not control.
    She needs to wake up and get help.

    1. This “friends” advice sounds wrong. That only made her look like a gold digger and queen control

  7. I agree with lol that this girl is a mess and that she certainly “needs help”!! I can go on and on about it but I don’t want to offend people as I am sure that there are still millions of her fans out there. People who thinks that she can do no wrong no matter what. To put it quite politely and mildly, she reminds me of a Chinese “Fergie” and I also agree that if she had lived back in the last century in a small village she would certainly be put in a basket and tossed to the sea or stoned to death. I am not sure whether I agree with such brutality but certainly that would have happened if she lived back then. She is extremely lucky that in this day and age, people like her are not looked down upon. Another kind word to describe her is that she is just a “tart”!!!

    1. I am very disturbed with the line ‘I am not sure whether I agree with such brutality’.

      There should not be any hesitation in disagreeing with this type of brutality.

    2. I’m disturbed by Pineapple’s comments as well. Any form of violence is unacceptable. She made mistakes, but those mistakes shouldn’t warrant any death on her. I read about her childhood life, and people who usually come from such childhood typically need lots of help from the community.

    3. I think you sound a bit harsh Pineapple. I agree that the things that she did were wrong, but I don’t think you should hope for her to die or get killed like that. It’s not like she went out and tortured or murdered anyone. I don’t like a lot of the things that she did as well, however, that doesn’t mean that I want her get killed or hurt. Also, coming from her background, maybe that is what shaped how she became?? You should think deeper into the issue instead of looking just on the surface..

  8. I am glad that they seem to have worked things out! Although I agree that Cecilia should address the media as well to tell her side of the story because the tabloids often are biased and over-exaggerate things so it would be unfair for her.

    1. I agree that most of the reports seem to be very one sided and puts her in a bad light. However, she should have came forward and said something but she didn’t which may imply that what they said may have been more true than we originally thought. Usually if someone goes silent, the rumours have a higher chance of being true.

      1. She might not know how to defend herself because maybe most of the news are true?

      2. I tend to think that it’s always difficult to tell whether what the tabloids are writing is true or not. Only the people in the actual situation know the full truth. Maybe Cecilia has her own reasons for not immediately speaking to the media about it.

  9. it is very nosy for cha siu yan to reveal other ppl marriage problem. Marriage problem is better settle quitely between 2 person, when the matter blow out of proportion it is more difficult to settle the matter.

  10. If I had a wife like Cecilia I would resort to having a mistress as well. Evil witch and too damn demanding.

    1. I think that it is wrong of anyone to be too demanding of another person. Everyone has limits and if you demand a lot from another person, they will in turn do the same to you. It is just like a boomerang, whatever you throw out will immediately come back to you.

  11. I am glad that Nic is not following in the footsteps of his parents and that Cecilia will learn her lesson and be a better wife to Nic. I feel that once you are married, it is not automatically a permanent bind for life like we used to think anymore. You have to constantly keep the bond, communication, trust, loyalty, love,etc.. strong or else any marriage can easily be on the rocks.

    1. ” I feel that once you are married, it is not automatically a permanent bind for life like we used to think anymore. ”

      Ideally, marriage is suppose to be permanent and forever. But realistically, for as long as I can remember I knew that there were arguments, differences, control, and power struggles between couples, especially those with more wealth.

      1. Of course ideally marriage is supposed to be a permanent lifelong committment. But sadly, it doesn’t seem like the case anymore. THere are still people that are married to one person throughout their whole life, but it is rare. Also, a marriage may last but at the same time, is it happy as well?? How can you avoid problems in a marriage?? That is not possible at all. The thing is, are you willing to compromise, solve problems, balance things out, yield to the other person(and not just expect them to yield to you and give in to you),etc… There is just so many things that needs to be done to keep a marriage strong and lasting. I agree that couples with more wealth have even more problems to deal with. Which is why I think that a woman marrying a rich guy and into a rich family is not necessarily always so great and grand as it looks on the outside. There are times that you may just marry a normal working citizen but have a happier and much more simple life style.

    2. Marriage is supposed to be sacred but nowadays people are unwilling to work out their differences, they use the word “divorce” frequently as a mean to end all arguments. Sometimes, when one is angry at his or her partner, they just blurt out the word. I don’t want to sound cynical but in Cecilia’s case, she has cried wolves too many times and this time it almost wrecks her marriage. Ok, so Nick is willing to workout their differences this time for the sake of their children. Kudos to him but will this be the last time that Cecilia uses the word “divorce” as a weapon to obtain what she desires? Like lol said, “this girl is a mess” She really needs professional help. For God’s sake, she needs to grow up! she is in her 30s, a mom and a wife so start acting like one instead of an immature childlike woman.

      1. Sadly some people never mature regardless of their age and whether they are a wife or a mother. You know the saying it is easy to change “jiang shan”, but it is really hard to change your original personality.

  12. I found it very strange with all the shenanaigans around Nick and Cecilia, how come Cecilia’s parents never once speak up on her behalf? Or are the Tses so powerful in HK that Cecilia’s parents dare not speak up against them?

    1. Maybe her parents just don’t want to get too involved since they don’t want to add more fuel to the fire? Or they just don’t want to speak badly of their daughter(assuming that she has been doing some not so nice things in this marriage)?? No one really knows why her parents won’t speak out.

    2. She’s never had a good relationship with her father. As for her mother, she may not be in Hong Kong. Her mother is probably in Australia with Cecilia’s aunt and doesn’t know much about Cecilia’s marriage life.

  13. YESSSS!!! Nic possibly having an affair? Take that all you girls that were saying “Best husband in the world”. He’s a dog like any other man.

    1. Sorry, but I find your comment kind of rude. Who knows for sure if he was or not? Also, I highly doubt that it is true since he seems too busy to be having one.

      1. Uhm but also can’t know he has one or not. Maybe yes, maybe no.

    2. It’s a rumour, someone just wants to add their two bits in just to make the story more interesting and entertaining. I am not a fan of Nick or Cecilia but he just doesn’t seems to be the type to have an affair on the side.

      1. I know, but the way that Ekinfan put in his 2 cents was not really appropriate. He could have said it in a different way.

  14. poor their child, not enough love, if their really split.

  15. i’ll give them another year and they’ll be done.
