He Sui Reportedly Tricked into Marriage, Mysterious Ex-Husband Suspected to Be Him

39-year-old Hong Kong actor William Chan, who regained popularity from the hit drama "Brilliant Like Us", recently announced that he and 3-years-younger Chinese supermodel He Sui have welcomed a child. However, he did not mention whether the two are married. Netizens digging into He Sui’s dating history discovered that 11 years ago, she once registered for marriage and even shared a marriage certificate on Weibo the following year, but never revealed the groom’s identity or appearance. The post was subsequently deleted, and she later claimed to be single, sparking speculation that she had a brief, secret marriage.

Rumor has it that He Sui’s short-lived marriage ended due to being “tricked into marriage”—her husband reportedly pretended to be a wealthy man, but his house and company were fake or rented. After she uncovered the truth, the marriage ended in divorce just seven months later. Self-media sources all point to model Ji Huanbo as He Sui’s mysterious ex-husband. He later appeared with his supermodel wife Wang Shiqing on the relationship reality show “Goodbye Lover 3”, during which the couple discussed issues within their marriage. However, they are believed to have reconciled, and often share sweet moments online. Amidst the news of He Sui giving birth, Ji Huanbo once again trended on social media. Wang Shiqing had already clarified the rumor back in 2021, stating that the story about her husband being married to He Sui was false. On the 19th, she again debunked the rumor on social media, saying, “It’s fake, wise people do not believe rumors.”
