Cecilia Cheung Admits Loving Nicholas Tse Was Very Difficult
Cecilia Cheung (張栢芝) was on the bitter end of the breakup when it was revealed that her ex-husband, Nicholas Tse (謝霆鋒), rekindled his old romance with Faye Wong (王菲). It was reported that Cecilia was angry, frustrated, and even cried when news broke that Nicholas and Faye were dating again. On September 25, Cecilia released the music video of her latest single “It’s Finally Time” <該是時候>. It was rumored that the lyrics, which are helmed by Cecilia herself, talks about her feelings towards Nicholas and Faye.
In an interview clip for the reality show She’s My Family <明星到我家>, Cecilia revealed her thoughts about love and recalled her past with Nicholas—from dating, to marriage, and to divorce. “That road [I walked on] was, honestly, very difficult. But if all of us walked on flat paths instead, that will also not be a good thing. There will be times when we feel tall and low; right or wrong. Actually, if we learn from our mistakes, we can gain even more [wisdom]. I’ve done many good things in my life. I’ve also committed many mistakes, but I have learned from them.”
In She’s My Family, Cecilia was arranged to live with a family of farmers in rural China. During her stay, she helped the family plow the fields, pick corn, feed pigs. Cecilia grew attached to the humble lifestyle, and said she already feels reluctant to leave. “I was very emotional. I didn’t expect myself to feel like this before I came. When this program ends, I’ll miss it very much.”
Cecilia Loves Being a Mother
Tears brimmed on Cecilia’s eyes when she was asked about her thoughts on love. “When love comes, you really can’t stop it. When I love, I don’t love just my boyfriend. It’s not that simple. I love everyone. I even love my pets. Once I love, I will give it my all. Love cannot be calculated or measured. If you do, that’s not true love.”
Cecilia is busy with her career in mainland China, but nothing is more important than taking care of her two sons, 7-year-old Lucas and 4-year-old Quintus. She revealed that Lucas is already at the point of his childhood where he feels embarrassed when his mother takes him to school.
“It stings, but I would tell myself that there is no other way. I used to think that way when I was younger too.”
Cecilia realizes that once her two sons come of age, she will have to learn to let them go. “I want them to learn how to pick themselves up after they fall. Otherwise, they will never learn how to protect themselves.”
But Cecilia admitted that she does not want those days to come soon. “A good plan is to keep on having kids so I can continue to be a mother!”

加油！
Add oil Cecilia Cheung, I’ll always support you!
YEAH, add oil to the Fire..
Again, the reporters to potrayed her for being bitter like how they constantly plastering Bernice with Moses’s love life. And bet, some of Nic’s fangirls will buy it and jump in and call her drama queen and such. When in the reality, she is just living her own life with her kids and career.
@ sigh:
What a relief to see a voice of reason.
I see them both as problem kids, from dysfunctional families.
But there always appears to be a stack of old/new ‘sins’ always to be ‘judged’ on Cecilia’s side, regardless of how hard she tries.
And yet, guess who’s been doing all the work parenting those kids, post-divorce.
Justifications galore as to how Nic lives his life, or why he divorced Cecilia.
Her pictures were a past event BEFORE they got married. A foolish mistake, that was NOT supposed to be made public by an Ex.
It just surfaced AFTER marriage.
People are so ready to buy into anything, and made easier when they seemingly already have preconceived judgements.
Even when Cecilia comes out to say she’s stopped loving him or that he doesn’t see the kids = that’s misread as some kind of drama move. Seriously?!
Maybe everyone will finally clap and cheer if Cecilia can be the bigger person and say insincerely but graciously:
Hey it’s ok, I support your dating choice 100%. I will always cover your butt for you, and ‘give you face’.
Even if that means you always put the kids last or lie that you have no time ever, even as you jet to ABCDEFG social and private events which (ooops) gets uncovered in the news.
Or don’t seem to appreciate anything I do as mom with them, because it doesn’t meet your high standards as (absentee) default dad.
@nomad 822
Couldn’t agree more with what you have wrote. Your comments are insightful and quite objective compare to those of victim blaming comments by fangirls.
yup, you are right
true love eh? then why were you involved in the edison chen sex scandal?
? she wasn’t in relationship with Nic or anyone at the time. No cheating. So? what’s your point?
Sigh: I thought she got married in 2006 and the scandal happened in 2008?
So, when the pictures were leaked from his ‘collection’ does that mean that those are all new photos? no. The pictures were taken before she married Nic. Nic left her and went back with Faye, remember? that’s when she went out with Edison.
Some people just don’t get their facts straight before commenting.
hahh>?? She was ALREADY married at that time.
Again, read what I wrote above.
Sigh: how do you know the photos were taken before 2006 and didn’t get published until 2008?
anzndoaemon: there are many reports on that if people care to read carefully. afor those who followed the news at that time must know about this.
Anyway, this iare just a few examples: http://afspot.net/forum/topic/597011-nic-tse-still-friends-with-edison-chen/
As for his wife, he said he knew what he had signed up for when he went down on bended knee and asked her to marry him.
‘Our images are similar. We stand by what we do. Everyone has a past but I trust her absolutely.’
Another one: http://afspot.net/forum/topic/501599-cecilia-cheung-was-involved-with-edison-chen-for-3-years/
There are still many but no time to dig for the old articles
Sigh: calm down lol.
azndoraemon: lol. ups. sorry. Just couldn’t stand that people still brought ip the EC thing over and over when we really no idea what really happened, At least, check all the facts.
Is it true that her 2nd kid’s dad is not nic but is nic’s father? If its true? Isn’t it incest?
If its incest, don’t think she deserves any sympathy or fit to discuss on love.
Stephen: lol. just stop blabbering BS
We really don’t know whether the scandal was before her relationship or not but even if it was before which is okay as long as she learnt from it. Cheating is just wrong but we do make mistake sometimes. My statement isn’t really about her, just in general to everyone in the world.
It’s very simple to tell that she took those photos in 2003. Just look at her tattoos…she adds a new tattoo every year up until her marriage with Nic, and finally after her divorce from Nic. She always gets a tattoo when she’s broken up with Nic. Also, she was skinny in “those” pictures, but when she married Nic, she gained weight.
I think that was before she got married so…
“When love comes, you really can’t stop it. When I love, I don’t love just my boyfriend. It’s not that simple. I love everyone. I even love my pets. Once I love, I will give it my all. Love cannot be calculated or measured. If you do, that’s not true love.”
LOL!
Nic should learn to understand and love cc again. Nic shold give the boys perfect family. Nic and cc should try to give esch other chance.learn their diff. I think cc still love nic very much. Pity cc.
I feel very sorry for CC. Really wish she can find her true love.
You cannot force love for the sake of the kids. You either love someone or you don’t. Being together for the sake of the kids is damaging to both partners and the kids in the end. It’s living a lie. People have to realise that happy ever after does not always exist and that divorce does happen.
Yes.. cannot force it especially when Nic is a selfish pr!ck.
– she’s living her own life in Singapore
– the Cecilia says are all reports from other people
where on earth do people think she’s not over the divorce?
she’s still a mother. she and her kids have a right to be upset when dad Nic does not show up, as agreed.
The Edison scandal was an embarrassment for Nick despite she was not in a relationship with him at the time. Who date your ex’s friend and nude pics expose? The last blow was taking photo with Edison at the airport; that was the breaker. No such thing as Edison and Nick are friends now or future. Cecilia had chosen poor choices and now she is suffering from her mistakes. Too bad for the kids to see their parents couldn’t reconcile but I wouldn’t worry about it. Nick is building an empire for them. He is a talent actor, and a successful businessman.
That’s why she said (from the above article) that she made many mistakes and have learned from that. So, media and us, netizens should also move on instead of keep harping about the old stories.. shouldn’t we?
Yes.
And if people don’t make those mistakes, they don’t grow. A white slate doesn’t have coping or problem solving skills.
As far as I can see, she is growing for the better and has always been trying to be a good involverd mom (even if she doesn’t always make the perfect decisions EXPECTED of her by Nic supporters).
Why is she still being dissed? And by other women at that?!
My exact point. Sad, isn’t? those who are victim of should I say.. S…blamming ar mostly women themselves. But this happen everywhere when it involves fangirls and hot male celebrities.
Speaking of women dissing women… I see some criticism toward Faye and her daughter on this site based on gossip. nomad822 – I believe you commented in another post that Faye leaves for months and loses contact with her family. That’s another false rumor perpetuated by the media. We (her fans) regularly see her candid pictures out and about / with family. She never disappeared for months.
I understand if you dislike Faye, but you are getting a very skewed perspective if you only read entertainment news. Many untrue things get published about Cecilia and Faye. Hope they both can get through this without the media stirring things up.
> nomad822 – I believe you commented in another post that Faye leaves for months and loses contact with her family. That’s another false rumor perpetuated by the media
Touche. Guilty as charged, my bad.
Wasn’t intended as a diss – it’s also my impression Faye while involved as a mom is also very much a free spirit.
Which perhaps explains she left the daily care of #2 to her Ex, Li Ya-Peng.
This has nothing to do with either of the women, because how Faye mothers is her own thing and will probably never involve the Tse kids.
Faye’s style of parenting doesn’t strike me as quite the same touchy-feely calibre of emotional Cecilia’s.
Setting up the charity foundation for #2 was a very proactive supportive step forward (instead of avoidance or hiding, as some parents do), and I’d have imagined would lead to a stronger bond between the couple.
To me, what would be a diss is the calling out on age, of Faye. We all have the same shelf-life and biological clock … everyone will grow old one day, including Cecilia.
Why put down someone’s age, esp as a fellow female? That’s just mean even as her manager/friend was trying to protective to Cecilia.
There are many ways to stand up for someone or explain their stance, put-downs are the unclassy lowest.
Especially since this has nothing to do with Faye, but everything to do with a neglectful dad … ie Nic and his lies.
I don’t doubt Nic’s clever businessman skills.
He’s clever. The quiet ones who say little always have the worse bite, when they excute their caculated moves.
Cecilia emotionally barks too much but is harmless (in my books). What matters is her heart seems in the right place, and she wears her heart on her sleeve, which is why she’s also easily manipulated.
To this day, even her ex FIL is has nice words to say about her post-divorce.
(1)It’s a clever strategy not to react to that news when it first broke, and to act like a bigger person. It makes him look c magnanimous, gracious and understanding … even when his ego was challenged.
Win Win. To be reactive, is to lose to Edison … and in the process, it also makes Nic look cooler bec he was ‘forgiving’.
(2) To declare in 2011 so (insincerely) about his love for Cecilia, only to declare divorce months later.
Successful businessman? No, that’s small potatoes. He can rise to politics.
Srry typos:
execute their calculated moves.
On strategy:
Faye contract with EMI is supposedly ending or ended, and they may not be able to afford to keep her on.
It would be a feather in golden boy’s cap if his charming self and persuasive powers would entice Faye to sign on with EEG/Empire.
Of course what idiot would want to end up with a wife like that. No parents will approve. A marriage base on lies will not end well. 😀 🙁 LOL!
Keep up with the good work Nick. 😀 🙁 LOL!
If she admits her mistakes, then why is she bad mouthing him in public? Nick is a bad father (bringing the kids in the picture) and …
Come on Cecilia, just because you are angry at him but Nick is your beautiful children’s father. Why attempt to trash his image and especially he is on a rising star now. Move on and grow up! Invest your time in finding your own happiness instead of bad mouthing your ex.
When did she bad mouthed him? I mean, coming from her OWN month and not tabloid or from her ex-manager’s word or whoever about her complaining that he neglected his kids?
Even if yes, I don’t see any relation between her ‘scandal’ mistake versus her being upset for her kids due to their father’s neglection. She as the kids mother has every right to feel upset for them on this.
Typo. I mean, ‘her OWN mouth’
Agree. Let’s be realistic.
If she’s upset, she’s NOT supposed to wash dirty linen in public, and just swallow all grievances? Smile brightly, hide those tears.
Keep it all rosy and hunky dory … and everything bad all in the closet, let the kids and public think dad’s a hero (with many excuses on his behalf, for his lies)?
His fans would like that.
C’mon. That’s how people get depressed.
Apparently, his fans expect her not to tell friends etc about what she feels (cause that’s normally where the reporters came up with their ‘stories’ about Cecilia said this and that according to this and that person). Then, like you said, pent up emotions are very dangereous . depression might lead to suicide.
It is not easy to be a active single parents for two active kids and it is only natural for her to pour/share what she feels with others. But whether the they will tell the stories to the tabloids or the tabloids decided to make up ‘stories’.. it is natural for us to blame her for being ‘drama queen’?
“When love comes, you really can’t stop it. When I love, I don’t love just my boyfriend. It’s not that simple. I love everyone. I even love my pets. Once I love, I will give it my all. Love cannot be calculated or measured. If you do, that’s not true love.”
If someone she doesn’t know met her on the street, does she love that person too? Does she love a thing too, anything?
Keep her mouth shut and the media will have nothing on her. What a selfish girl. She makes mistake after mistake.
“A good plan is to keep on having kids so I can continue to be a mother!”
What a joke! Work on the two kids she has now. 😀 🙁 LOL!
“What’s love got to do with it” 😀 🙁 LOL!
That was an interview done for the promotion of her new show prior to the Nic-Faye’s news. The magazine asked her and she answered. That’s her job. It was just a bad mistranslated article. She didn’t not say she loves everyone! This is what she says in Chinese, “我会爱他的所有，包括宠物，只要爱上，我就投入进去，爱情是不可计算的。”以这样一颗爱屋及乌、无私奉献的爱人之心，惟愿好女人不被辜负。” She said, “I will love all of him.” Meaning that she loves both his positives and negatives…because that’s love. OK? Got it? Next time check the source instead of relying on translated articles. And if you can’t read Chinese, then you should reserve your judgement.
*She did not say….
Yup, love. LOL!
Barney(I Love You) 😀 🙁 LOL!
@Cloud
Thanks for clearing up things.
That’s just one of the example of clueless/garbage victim blaming coming from Nic’s fans. As usual. lol.
Yup, love. LOL!
Barney(I Love You) 😀 🙁 LOL! LOL!
A lot of love from Barney. 😀 🙁 LOL!
blind and deaf, to anything Nic does.
yes we love. lol. 🙂 🙂 🙂
no space to think anymore.
Barney (I Love You)
I love you. You love me. We’re a happy family. With a great big hug and a kiss from me to you. Won’t you say you love me too.
LOL! LOL!
“@nomad 822” & “@where on earth” are the same. 😀 🙁 LOL!
@ kiwi:
Yes I am.
I’d started some post using “where on earth or what on earth” as sentence, and maybe the cursor directed/pasted it to ‘name’ without me noticing.
To deliberately be a different user = you use another email addy = the avatars are the same one the same email accounts (like so).
Totally agreed
How do you know that she said those words? The media fabricated all the news, including the managers’ stories. Welcome to the entertainment world.
Nic is obviously not a good father, CC is just telling the truth. She has no obligation to cover up for him, period!
Totally. I see it that way too.
Why is Ceciia expectde to be the bigger person, and just bottle it up, and keep quiet?
It’s NOT ok for the kids to keep seeing him as a great person (because mom makes excuses for him), who does as he pleases.
Dads are role models, especially to boys = if this dysfuntional pattern is endorsed by mom – what message does it send? That it is ok behavior?
Gallen Lo’s wife kept quiet = IF she had in the meantime died of exhaustion as single mom, or been severely depressed until it impacts her daily life, or responsibilities as mom – do we then say” “oh dear poor woman?!?”
Wow, Sigh and Nomad822 such big fan of Cecilia.
Come on, she couldn’t have care less….
Take it easy.
LOL. There are also tons of Nic’s big fans. And he also couldn’t care less :). win win.
And NOPE. I am not a Cecilia’s fan. But been reading quite a bunch of news regarding her and Nic qnd feels bad for her due to all the negativity from his fans. Like normad 822, I appreciate her effort in trying to be better person and be an active mother. Juat feel the urge to speak up for her.
“Once I love, I will give it my all. ”
And likewise, once love turns to hate, she hates with a passion. She is one passionate woman, between 2 extremes. A lot of bad press between the 2 but perhaps, both should stop commenting on the other. When the fighting stops, purposeful communication begins.
I agree with Funn Lim. I don’t feel sorry for Cecilia at all. Just feel sad for the children.
Same here, feel sorry for someone that have so many chances and screwed up again and again. What a joke. 😀 🙁 LOL!
Children is always the victim of parents divorce.
I think the headline should be
“Cecilia Cheung Admits ‘Stop’ Loving Nicholas Tse Was Very Difficult”
I dont think she knows how to stop loving him. Specially when she has her two sons that will remind her of him. She does love her family alot. I dont think she knows how to stop loving and hating him. I hope she will as he does not deserve her love and her devotion.
How will she face her sons when the discover her nude photos in the future? No way she could put the dreadful past behind her. I really feel sorry for her. No wonder she’s being so bitter now. She can’t change the past. What she have is just her sons.
Mom’s photos are not the only “discoveries” awaits the kids.
Grandma Deborah had made a couple of Cat3 films in the 70s that still run viral in a number of porn sites.
“Totally agree. There is a word for those trying to bash/ criticize/ excoriate/ ridicule others for practicing their religions and using it as their moral compass — religious intolerance.
I have a very good friend who happens to be an Orthodox Jew. One day, a group of us friends were taking a lunch break from a conference and decided on a nearby Japanese sushi restaurant. My Jewish friend politely asked to be excused from the group as he would go alone to a kosher restaurant.
Instead of calling my Jewish friend a religious extremist and condemning his action as being silly and illogical as some here might, we all decided to join him at the kosher restaurant and good time was had by all.”
@kiwi
Huh?
Are you quoting me in the right thread?
Ignore it. 😀 🙁 LOL!
Where’s the movie link? Where-where-where? Let’s watch that trouble-making ex-MIL in Cat3. 🙂
I don’t think she is sorry for what she had done or she wouldn’t taken a photo shot again smiling with that jackass Edison at the airport.
Same here, she will not change for anyone, stubborn till the end. 😀 🙁 LOL!
she has stubborn ears. I learned from fortune teller master.
I love her acting but i don’t think she’s a good person. I do think she’s stubborn and selfish.
“she has stubborn ears. I learned from fortune teller master”
LOL!
Btw, how much does it cost you? 😀 🙁 LOL!
Hey Kiwi I am agreeing it with you too… 😉 cun embrace it n be thankful how blessed she once had till is gone… Let it go la!
Cecilia is playing the media again with her “sad” and/or “misunderstood” story about her life. Just another piece of propaganda to prop up her popularity or status since she has been demoted or relegated to B or C role actress…
Cecilia is just saying those stupid things to the media again!!!!! seriously!!! then why would she want to marry Nicholas as she said that is very hard to love Nicholas!!!! >.<
This is so pathetic. They are divorced and she refuses to let him go on with his own life? Not a fan of either but can we see how clingy she is? After divorce still cannot let go. Imagine when they were together. I can imagine she used all her clingy girlish whatever tactics to get Nic in the first place. He always like Faye more. Else why was there a on and off and on saga amongst them. Faye being more matured or perhaps have more pride would have told him to just bloody go away if he’s so indecisive at that point. Now that all has gone a big circle he finally decides what he wants.
CC should have more class like Li Yapeng. It’s over. You had your moments and just let go. I personally lost my love one to someone like CC. It’s very real. These characters do exist. They don’t understand forced love is not real.
She never made any comments. The interview was done prior to the Nic-Faye’s news for the promotion of her new show. This interview came from a magazine which was done months before. And it is her job to cooperate with the interviewer, if she did not we would hear news of her being a diva.
Not magazine. I meant a video interview for the show.
Cecilia can never do anything right anyways.
She’s damned if she does, and damned if she doesn’t … either way.
Moving on = she should be careful about who she confides in. Those people talking on her behalf just put her into deeper fire.
Her actions as a mother so far speak louder than words, to me – why are we putting down someone for being responsible and trying?
@Nomad
No one expect Cecilia to suffer and sacrifice telling the truth to the boys. Children are smart and those boys will realise which parent is spending quality time with them if their father does not get his dead beat absentee father act together real soon. Kids are not stupid, even young ones. They are a lot smarter than we give them credit for. I am just hoping that the two parents do not engage in bad mouthing each other to the kids to gain points with the boys to get them on their side. No one is saying that they are doing that. Just a hope they do not do that. It is not about what Cecilia does not do, or does. She just needs to tell the boys daddy is not there, and just continue loving them and being the bigger of the parents and BE there for the boys.
CiCi also needs to stop yapping so publicly, and be careful what she says to some so called friends. What she says at times does come across as words from a woman who is still hung up on her ex husband. Yes, a woman or a man can be a full time parent and still find someone to share romantic moments with. I am not not suggesting CiCi go out there and look for a man, if that is not what she really wants at this time in her life. Just do not talk about Nic so often and so sadly in a public manner, it gives the impression she has not gotten over him, hence making others say she needs to move on.
Cecilia can also move on in different ways with her life without having a man. One does not always require a lover to fulfill their life or their dreams. She needs right now to love herself and her boys, be brave and be confident. The boys will see that daddy is not putting their best interest first, they will, they are not stupid.
@ Trini:
I enjoyed reading your post.
Constructive , without put downs or unnecc references to the past scandal.
(1) Agree that she needs to stop “yapping” (how apt – the dog which barks rather than bites).
But would disagree here – while you say “so publicly” … I’d also say she CONFIDED in the people who “yapped” on her behalf. She herself hasn’t really commented directly on the issue, except to her buddies who spoke out loud for her.
This particular instance was her ex manager/appointed mother figure. Or words taken out of context from various recent interviews to form a skewed picture. Same for the IV drip incident.
(2) She is moving on with her life in Singapore, seemingly.
(3) I’d still say she needs to unload – BUT be careful about who she chooses to talk to.
(4) The expectations for her “to be the bigger person” … that’s a tall order. As you can see, even if she does something right, she doesn’t get much praise. But one wrong move and she gets slammed with a barrage of Nic supporters, who also rake up endless ‘sins’ from history.
(5) As a mother who’s solely manning the fort, ANY mother (ex or otherwise) would mouth off about the useless selfish dad who lies about his absences.
Being the noble person just means you bottle everything up UNhealthily.
(6) Kids are kids, even as teens.
Many of my immigrant clients and friends are technically ‘single moms’ = married, but no husbands around. Some are rich, some are not. But the gap in their lives is the same, and often when emergencies/crises’s arise, they deal with it on their own.
When dad comes once a year bearing exy gifts, and wonderful times on exciting holiday = the kids often still think of him as a great father, more so if they never get scolded when he’s around.
Even as mom soldiers on with the responsibilites of the tedious daily grind (come rain or shine) and being the dependable disciplinarian person (who’s sometimes not liked).
hope she find happiness!
I also hope she finds her own happiness too. I think she has a deep sexy voice as long as she doesn’t talk about ex in public or confiding to the wrong person. It’s a no no. Move on girl!
“A good plan is to keep on having kids so I can continue to be a mother!”
What the fu…?
Well, in life you choose your which road to walk. You make your own decisions and you face the consequences. Cecilia made mistakes in the past, haven’t we all done so too? The most important thing here is to learn from your own mistakes and pick yourself up and move on while taking hits. But what irate’s me is that she is only trying to get compassion from people because she can’t handle herself properly.
Does she really mean on what she said by learning from your own mistakes? If so why in the world will you still keep in touch with a low grade guy who took pictures of you and him during your intimate moments and made an impact on your career as well as your love life? For real? And her actions recently doesn’t seem like she is fit to be mother or a person who learns from their mistake… just another hypocrite who runs their mouth trying to justify themselves. I don’t feel sorry for her at all. She made her choices, she needs to face them. Simple.
