BARELY 48 hours out of jail, and already MediaCorp actor
Christopher Lee has rumours swirling - that he has split up with
actress girlfriend Fann Wong, according to a media report.
According to 'reliable inside sources' from MediaCorp, Lianhe
Wanbao reported that Lee and Wong had earlier broken up in April
this year.
The star couple did not announce their break-up out of
consideration for both their acting careers, Wanbao quoted the
sources as saying.
Fann, 36, gave no indication of the news during a press conference
last Wednesday, saying she did not visit Lee in jail because she
was in Malaysia filming a Jack Neo movie and had no time to come
back.
'He told me not to see him, and as his girlfriend, I have got to
respect him,' she had said.
After spending 28 days in jail, Lee was released on Monday.
Speaking to the media on Tuesday for the first time since his
arrest for drink driving on Oct 8 last year, Lee did not mention
the split with MediaCorp actress Wong.
He did not go into details at the press conference, but had said
she was 'very happy' to see him again and stressed that their
relationship 'has not changed'.
His contract was suspended during his jail term and he revealed he
will be attending a meeting next week to find out what is in store
for him work-wise.
In the meantime, Lee said he will visit his family in Malacca but
added that Wong was too busy to accompany him.
