Alyssa Chia regrets how she handled her first divorce

The actress felt that she should not have used a press conference to expose her marriage issues

Alyssa Chia regrets how she handled her first divorce

Taiwanese actress Alyssa Chia recently expressed regret for calling her ex-husband, Chinese businessman Sun Zhihao, out during a press conference back in 2010.

Back then, Alyssa held a press conference to openly contest for her daughter’s custody. She also read a letter dedicated to her now 11-year-old daughter, Angelina, before reporters, in the hopes that Zhihao would come forward with her to talk after he took off with their daughter four months ago.

In a recent appearance on the Chinese reality programme Change, to promote her new book ‘Slow down if you want to find happiness’, the actress admitted that her methods were not the best as they had not been thought through properly.

However, she added that she felt “helpless and desperate about the situation” as she had not seen Angelina for more than six months.

“Even though I did notice that the relationship between me and Zhihao was not strong enough, I still decided to get married to him. However, I later realised that both of us suffering would not change anything so we decided to get a divorce,” the actress shared.

Alyssa also revealed that even after remarrying fellow actor Xiu Jie Kai, Angelina had initial trouble adjusting to the change in her family and would often lash out at Jie Kai, saying hurtful things to him such as,“you are not my father, why should you care about me.”

Fortunately, the two managed to work things out over time and ease the tension between them.

The family of five, along with Alyssa and Jie Kai’s two other daughters, 2-year-old Bubu and 9-month-old Bobo, can often be seen spending time together at family outings.
