Princess Fiona leaves the Hill
SINGAPORE : Caldecott princess Fiona Xie has reportedly
relinquished her crown and left the Hill.
According to a Singapore Chinese daily, Xie, 27, has officially
resigned from MediaCorp.
This comes as no surprise as resignation rumours had been
circulating since the first half of the year. And the actress' last
minute withdrawal from upcoming Channel 8 blockbuster “Together” -
she had "urgent personal matters" to attend to - only fuelled
speculation further.
While Xie did not emerge to make any clarifications about her
shocking withdrawal, she continued working, jet-setting to Tokyo
and Los Angeles to host a food programme.
Filming has since completed and Xie has gone MIA (missing in
action) once again.
Celebrity hairstylist David Gan who learnt about Xie’s resignation
two weeks ago, has confirmed the news. He said many artistes choose
to leave because the opportunities for growth and development here
are limited.
“I was very sad
when she broke the news to me, after all it is difficult for an
artiste to make her mark here. Though I can’t bear
for her to go, I want her to be happy and wish her the best,” said
Gan.
