HK actress Myolie Wu dispels rumours with family vacation in the Maldives
Hong Kong actress Myolie Wu is vacationing with her family in the Maldives and, in the process, dispelling any lingering rumours that her marriage is on the rocks.
'Our annual date with the ocean, love this paradise!' the 45-year-old wrote on social media on July 23, sharing several photos of herself and her family at a lagoon resort.
The actress, who recently starred in Chinese TV series A Better Life (2025), is married to British-born businessman Philip Lee, 52. They have three sons, aged four to seven.
The five of them were all dressed in shades of blue in the photos, with Wu resting her hands on her husband's shoulder in one picture.
She added on Chinese social media platform Xiaohongshu: 'Although the weather isn't great, it's a sunny day as long as we are together!'
Lee was in the news in March when he was spotted by a Hong Kong magazine hugging several women at a pub while celebrating his birthday. He took to Instagram to address the report, saying that he was a 'big hugger'.
Wu did not react publicly to the incident for a while. Neither did she appear in the Instagram photos posted by Lee of their youngest son's birthday in April, raising speculation of marital woes.
The actress broke her silence in May, telling the media that it was a misunderstanding.
'In fact, those who were present that night were close friends and relatives,' she said. 'The two ladies who were photographed hugging my husband are friends whom I have known for many years, and their husbands were also present.'
Wu added: 'My husband hugged both men and women. It was normal social interaction with his friends.'
Referring to her marriage, she said: 'There are absolutely no problems in our relationship.' – The Straits Times/Asia News Network View this post on Instagram

Indie vibes take centre stage in KromaKuning's Sarawak Day tribute in Kuching
The 'KHEMAH I.N.D.I.E.P.E.N.D.E.N.C.E DAY' programme brought together local creatives in a night of music, expression, and community spirit. KUCHING (July 28): Over 50 people gathered at Khemah Café, Jalan Dagok Timur here to celebrate this year's Sarawak Day in an alternative and independent spirit. Themed 'KHEMAH I.N.D.I.E.P.E.N.D.E.N.C.E DAY', the programme was jointly organised by KolabBasi: Kumpulan Tidak Konsistan (KromaKuning) and Khemah Café, spotlighting the independent music scene and alternative artistic expression, offering a grassroots platform for the local voices. 'We built this event with the true spirit of independence; not just nostalgia, but the freedom to be yourself, to speak out, and to feel accepted without having to follow industry formulas. 'And most importantly, we did this with our own hands, for ourselves,' a KromaKuning spokesperson told The Borneo Post. The night featured performances by five independent acts, starting with a soulful R&B showcase by Dayangmu. Coming up next was Lydbie, who delivered introspective, melancholic pieces that resonated with the audience. Akmal Kamisly followed up with a solo set before being joined by Dayangmu for a duet. Wan Purong added humour and interactive energy to the evening, while Adruce Azman closed the event with a series of original songs that blended folk and jazz. His set began with a heartfelt rendition of 'Ibu Pertiwiku', paying tribute to Sarawak Day. Beyond the music, the event also included a digital campaign titled 'Follow & Freebie', which boosted online engagements. Attendees who followed the organisers' Instagram accounts (@kromakuning and @ received exclusive merchandise items, including limited edition stickers and customised design pieces. Those dressed in a 'camping vibes' theme received special drink promotions, further enhancing the laid-back and free-spirited atmosphere. 'This event is not just entertainment, but a manifestation of alternative voices that rarely find space in the mainstream. 'Through an open and community-driven format, we've created space for new talent to shine,' added the KromaKuning spokesperson. Feedback was overwhelmingly positive, with many describing it as 'a fresh breeze' in the Sarawak Day celebration scene. KromaKuning expressed hope of making the camp-themed gathering an annual event, continuing the open mic sessions and alternative art programmes. 'We would also welcome collaborations with other groups in promoting independent culture and community arts,' said the spokesperson. KolabBasi is an independent art collective led by KromaKuning, engaging Sarawakians in music, visual arts, writing, and community activism. Known as the Kumpulan Tidak Konsistan, the group operates informally but consistently to champion a space for alternative expression in Borneo. Khemah Café, known for its tropical camping-themed décor, continues to serve as a hub for creative gatherings, including photo exhibitions, poetry readings, book discussions, and acoustic shows.

Sterling performance by Kian Kok students
Published on: Monday, July 28, 2025 Published on: Mon, Jul 28, 2025 Text Size: The performers and guests. Kota Kinabalu: A one-hour blackout and brief mid-performance disruption did not dampen the spirits of performers at Kian Kok Middle School's annual Cultural Night, Saturday. The event themed 'Joy at Kian Kok' featured musical, dance and multicultural acts. Attendees, including parents and special guests, witnessed the resilience of students and staff as they adapted to the unexpected technical challenge. In his opening speech, Board Chairman Datuk Clement Yeh praised the students' initiative, emphasising that the event was more than just entertainment, it was a platform for growth. 'At Kian Kok, education goes beyond grades. It is about nurturing passion, character and creativity. Tonight, our students did not just perform, they proved their ability to adapt and excel under pressure,' he said. Clement pointed out the school's commitment to well-rounded development as reflected by recent achievements, including its brass band winning gold at a national competition and its Chinese orchestra preparing for a 2026 cultural exchange in Taiwan. Guest of Honour David Lam, who is Honorary Advisor to the Board, lauded the performances as a profound life lesson in passion and perseverance. 'Kian Kok is not just producing top scorers but about cultivating dreamers. On this stage, students found their voices and the courage to chase their futures,' he said. The power outage became an unplanned highlight, with students and staff working to keep spirits high. Their composure left an impression on parents and guests, who described the night as a journey of hope and resilience. As the curtain fell, the thunderous applause echoed the school's mission to empower every child to shine in their own unique light. 'Education is not just about exams. It is about being seen, heard and believed in. Tonight, we did not just witness talent, we saw the power of unwavering belief in every student's potential,' said David. * Follow us on our official WhatsApp channel and Telegram for breaking news alerts and key updates! * Do you have access to the Daily Express e-paper and online exclusive news?
