Nicholas Tse breaks his silence on divorce rumours

HONG KONG: After weeks of speculation and rumours, Hong Kong actor Nicholas Tse has finally broken his silence on the divorce rumours that have plagued him and his actress wife Cecilia Cheung lately.

The 30-year-old "Bodyguards and Assassins" star issued a statement via his management company Emperor Entertainment Group, denying media reports which claimed that he had taken steps to separate from Cheung.

"I, Nicholas Tse have never sent Cecilia Cheung any lawyer's letter requesting a separation.

"Regarding the false reports about me in 'Apple Daily' (a tabloid published in Hong Kong and Taiwan) today (May 30, 2011), I reserve the right to take legal action," said Tse in his statement to the media on Monday.

His statement was made public by Emperor Entertainment Group's Director of
Artiste Management Mani Fok on her micro-blog.

Tse is currently in Malaysia shooting a film.

Heart of the matter

The whole matter began when Hong Kong singer-actor Edison Chen confirmed last week that he had met Cecilia Cheung at the airport on May 8.

Chen, who indirectly caused intimate photos of Cheung and himself to be leaked onto the Internet in 2008, claimed it was a friendly meeting.

This sparked speculation that Cheung had reconciled with Chen, a development which some tabloids now claim had deeply upset Cheung's husband Tse, and ultimately led him to demand a separation.
