Some time ago, "Kung Fu superstar" Jet Li, who has been married to Li Zhi for 25 years, posted a rare photo with his wife, which surprised fans.
In the film, the two of them are very close to each other. Although they are dressed in very simple and elegant clothes, it can be seen from every move that they are still very happy.
Before that, the man took their eldest daughter, Jane, to visit the injured Xiang Tai, which attracted attention.
This is not only because the scene of the father and daughter together is so happy, but also because the public is reminded that the man and his ex-wife also gave birth to two daughters.
But in contrast, Jet Li has completely opposite attitudes towards the two daughters of his ex-wife Huang Qiuyan and the two daughters born to his current wife Li Zhi - this has also become a "stain" in his life.
In addition to "abandoning his wife and daughter" when his career was gradually getting better, this broken marriage also made Huang Qiuyan's eldest daughter Li Si hate marriage for a time:
Even though she is 36 years old, she still chooses to be alone.
Perhaps in his career, Jet Li is the "Kung Fu Emperor" that everyone admires, but in his private life, his actions are indeed chilling and contemptible.
This is the main reason why even though he and his wife Li Zhi have been married for many years, they are still not blessed by the outside world...
1. The "confused" first marriage
Jet Li, who was born in 1963, is 61 years old.
But compared to male celebrities of the same age, he looks very old.
Rumor has it that this is because he suffered too many injuries while practicing martial arts when he was young, which caused physical overdraft, and often relapsed when he got older.
Some people also directly criticized: "It seems that some transactions have been depleted of energy..."
Indeed, Andy Lau, who is 2 years older than him, is still active on the front line, and he looks lively and full of energy.
On the other hand, Jet Li was even frequently rumored to be "dead" by the outside world, so he had no choice but to come forward to refute the rumors himself.
In fact, his success story is enough to put an end to the "change of fate against the will of heaven".
Jet Li was born in a poor family in Beijing. His father died unexpectedly when he was 2 years old, making his life even more difficult.
In order to allow her child to drink milk and eat eggs every day, his mother sent him to Shichahai Amateur Sports School to learn martial arts. Unexpectedly, he was extremely talented and soon shined in various competitions.
At the age of 17, Jet Li became a popular niche star in the movie "Shaolin Temple" and became the male god in the hearts of countless fans.
In fact, during this period, he fell in love with Huang Qiuyan, a fellow senior who was 2 years older than him.
The woman's family is very well off. Her father is the choreographer of the Military Region Art Troupe, and her mother is a dance teacher in the song and dance theater.
Huang Qiuyan was also sent to a martial arts school at a few years old, so she met the 8-year-old Jet Li.
The two childhood sweethearts grew up. As they got along, they learned that the other person's family background was not good. She was kind-hearted and often used her own salary to relieve her financial pressure.
Over and over again, men and women in adolescence discovered their vague feelings for each other, but Jet Li said many years later:
"I met my first wife in school. She was two years older than me and she often took care of me. I didn't know her at that time. Knowing what love is, it is a kind of mutual liking. This relationship also vaguely came to the beginning of filming "Shaolin Temple"..."
Because of this movie, he became a celebrity, so his feelings for Huang Qiuyan became more complicated—— In those days, breaking up with your girlfriend after becoming famous would ruin your reputation.
So even though it was clear that he didn't have much feelings for Huang Qiuyan, Jet Li did not choose to break up.
It is said that he once thought about introducing each other to filming, hoping that Huang Qiuyan would also become a star, and it would be logical for the two to break up.
Unfortunately, Jet Li was seriously injured during a filming process. The woman immediately turned down the filming contract and took care of him with all her clothes on until he recovered.
After that, in 1987, the two got married naturally, and then the couple drifted to the United States to develop. During this period, their eldest daughter Li Si was born.
However, the arrival of his daughter did not make the relationship between his parents better. In addition, Jet Li's career was not developing smoothly in the United States, so he returned to Hong Kong, China. When he left, his wife was pregnant again.
However, Huang Qiuyan did not know at that time that once her husband left, he never came back.
Because of the filming of "Dragon in the End of the World", Jet Li met the woman he fell in love with at first sight: Li Zhi.
and later abandoned his ex-wife and children for her.
2. "Li Zhi is what I love most in my life"
In May 1991, Huang Qiuyan received an overseas call from her husband. He said: "I am not happy with you, and I want to divorce you."
The woman was then I was raising a pair of daughters alone, with no financial resources, an unfamiliar place, and even no language, but I simply chose to let go.
She has always loved Jet Li and felt very happy being with him. Although her feelings were not strong, they were indifferent.
When her husband suddenly said, "I am not happy being with him," she understood completely: After all, relationships cannot be forced.
At that time, the eldest daughter Li Si had just turned 3 years old, and the youngest daughter Li Taimi was just over 1 year old.
Although Jet Li left a house in Los Angeles that was still paying off the mortgage and a small amount of savings to himself, Huang Qiuyan's life with two daughters can still be imagined.
Coupled with the pain of divorce, she was unable to leave for a time and had no choice but to take her two daughters back to her ex-mother-in-law's house in Beijing to take care of them.
However, because the children were too young and left their mother before they were even weaned, their health was very poor and they often fell ill. Grandma Zhang Fenglan had to take them to and from the hospital.
Li's mother couldn't understand her son's choice. She even cried for half the night after learning that Jet Li and Huang Qiuyan were divorced.
Huang Qiuyan started a "counterattack" life after sending her daughter away.
She initially had to auction the house because she couldn't afford the high mortgage loan.
During the most difficult time, Huang Qiuyan had nowhere to live. An old lady who had immigrated from Beijing felt sorry for her and lent her his 10-square-meter basement to live in.
Later, she accepted the help of beautician Zheng Mingming and went to a beauty school in Los Angeles for training. After graduation, she stayed in the other party's beauty salon to work.
It is said that when Huang Qiuyan saw her two daughters again, it was already three years later - her life finally turned around, so she returned to China to visit relatives in 1994.
At this time, Jet Li had already starred in classic works such as the action film "Fang Shiyu" and "The Legend of Heaven and Dragon Sword", and his career gradually reached a glorious period.
In private, he and Li Zhi were in a sweet love relationship. As a result, the other party gave up developing in the entertainment industry and started doing business, but often lost everything because of his lack of experience.
In order to help his girlfriend plug the hole, Jet Li had to work hard to film. Works such as "Fist of Heroes" and "Once Upon a Time in the West" were all shot at that stage.
It is said that the two had a "ten-year agreement" at that time, and they agreed that if they were still together after 10 years, they would get married and start a family. Huang Qiuyan on the other side of
rejected Zheng Mingming's invitation to work as a manager in his store, saying that she just hoped to support herself by working part-time.
After accumulating a certain amount of wealth, she started to start her own business. She rented a small shop with a barber and opened a barber shop.
After gaining a certain foundation, Huang Qiuyan insisted on returning to China once or twice a year to visit her daughters.
Although Li Si and Li Taimi understood their mother's difficulties, as "left-behind children", they were once ridiculed by their classmates, and their growth process was not pleasant.
Especially in 1999, his father Jet Li spent a huge amount of money to marry Li Zhi in a high-profile manner. Their wedding house in Los Angeles was worth 200 million and covered an area of more than 100 acres.
A Hong Kong media even launched a helicopter in order to capture the full view of the two-person villa.
Moreover, the woman was more than 3 months pregnant at the time. After that, Jet Li turned down 5 movies in succession in order to be by his wife's side while she waited for the birth, resulting in a loss of up to 25 million in remuneration.
In 2000, Li Zhi gave birth to daughter Jane in Los Angeles. She is the one mentioned above who accompanied her father back to Hong Kong to see Mrs. Xiang. She is now 24 years old.
At this time, Li Si was 12 years old and Li Taimi was 11 years old. They were both in the rebellious stage of youth - I wonder how they felt when faced with their father's high-profile second marriage?
3. The four daughters have different fates
In 2003, 40-year-old Jet Li welcomed his second daughter Jetta, born to Li Zhi.
It was also this year that the eldest daughter Li Si and the second daughter Li Taimi finally came to the place where their mother lived.
During the summer vacation, Huang Qiuyan took them to live in a basement in Los Angeles. It is said that when Jet Li learned that his daughters were coming, he also extended an invitation, but the two daughters refused because they were "afraid of their mother's sadness."
The following year, Huang Qiuyan accepted a marriage proposal from a man - his surname was Wang, from Shandong, China, and he opened a restaurant there.
It is said that Mr. Wang’s shop is not far from her barber shop. She often goes there to eat and they get to know each other from time to time.
The other party also had a marriage, and he gave all his property to his ex-wife when they divorced. However, when he heard that his ex-wife was ill, he returned to her to take care of her until she passed away.
Huang Qiuyan was moved by Mr. Wang's character, and finally the two chose to tie the knot in 2004 after dating for more than two years.
After Jet Li learned about it, he sent 50,000 US dollars as a congratulatory gift in the name of his two daughters.
Two years later, Li Si and Li Taimi rushed to the United States to study, and finally reunited with their mother.
However, because her remarried husband also had a son before, in order to avoid conflicts, Huang Qiuyan let her two daughters rent a house outside.
Compared with their poverty, Li Zhi’s two daughters, jane and jetta, lived a very luxurious life.
Because they grew up in a wealthy family, the two sisters have cheerful and lively personalities, and have been exposed to various celebrities since they were young.
html When she was 06 years old, Jane had already won championships in various dance competitions. At the age of 7, she went to Andy Lau's concert to dance with him.It is said that Liu Tianwang specially practiced Latin dance for 4 days in order to better cooperate with Jane. After the cooperation, he even praised generously:
"I will panic when I see her. This little girl is really so beautiful!"
A year later, Jet Li took this girl he regarded as a treasure to the red carpet of an event and walked hand in hand with Jackie Chan.
Privately, they also wear famous brands and enjoy the light and dividends of the "second generation stars".
However, a good life may also bring troubles:
As we all know, Jet Li personally experienced the Indonesian tsunami in 2014. At that time, his two daughters were swimming beside him. He risked his own life to rescue his youngest daughter Jetta.
Some time ago, he also revealed that he discovered that Jetta had a tendency to be depressed at the age of seven and had a quiet and reserved personality.
But fortunately, his wife Li Zhi stayed with his daughter and she eventually recovered.
Jet Li also praised Li Zhi's careful training of his daughters more than once, and said that it was his mother's credit for the children to be so outstanding.
However, he never mentioned Li Si and Li Taimi, his children from his ex-wife, and the two girls have never made their identities public.
According to time calculation, Li Si is now 36 years old, and his sister Li Taimi is also 35 years old, but neither of them chose to get married.
There is speculation among the public that this may be because they have already seen through the rough growth process:
If they meet an irresponsible man, their marriage will be in disarray?
