Was my husband Wang Feng having an affair? 'Divorce' Zhang Ziyi, how will 650 billion won worth of assets be divided?
Zhang Ziyi made the divorce official through a statement on the 23rd, saying, "After eight years of marriage, after careful consideration and discussion, we have decided to end our marriage."
They said, "There is no fight about right and wrong between the two, and even if they break up, they will not abandon or betray the other. They will continue to raise their children together as a family and become the parents that the children trust the most."
