Taiwanese actress Yang Qianpei aka Pink Yang recently opened up about her divorce during a TV interview, breaking down in tears as she shared the emotional journey behind her decision.
She explained that she chose to go public before filming a travel show earlier this year because she didn’t want to deceive anyone.
"I knew family and children would come up in conversations. If I hadn't revealed it beforehand, I wouldn't have known how to face everyone," she admitted, her voice shaking with emotion.
In the programme, Yang recalled the difficult moment she made the announcement, fighting back tears.
"I wasn’t trying to stir up news. I just felt that keeping it a secret would feel like lying. I want to be honest with myself and with those who support me," she said.
Despite the separation, Pink Yang still cares about her ex-husband, Hong Jiajie, and his family.
"I’ve checked in on his parents—they’re doing well," she revealed, showing that the former couple remains on good terms.
More importantly, she emphasised that their two daughters remain their top priority. "We will continue to co-parent and make sure they are happy."
Yang and Hong married in 2016 and were once seen as an ideal celebrity couple.
However, on 19 January 2025, Pink Yang posted a heartfelt statement on social media, confirming that their marriage had ended amicably in 2024.
"I am grateful for the years we shared. Moving forward, we will focus on raising our children as loving parents."
Addressing speculation, she clarified that the divorce was not a rash decision but a result of long discussions and deep reflection.
"We tried to save our marriage, but some things just can’t be forced. Letting go was the best choice for both of us to live happier lives," she concluded.
