Since Nicholas Tse (謝霆鋒) and Faye Wong (王菲) rekindled their romance after an 11-year separation, Cecilia Cheung (張柏芝) has been portrayed as a jealous ex-wife unable to let go of the past. Rumors circulated this week that Cecilia had even tried to commit suicide because of unbearable loneliness. The suicide rumors started in an online forum on December 7. A netizen attached a black and white photograph of Cecilia to a fabricated news headline, “Actress Cheung died from jumping off a building. The suicide note states her love for Nicholas. It’s suspected that Cecilia jumped off a building and died.” The message stated that Cecilia had committed suicide by jumping from the 24th floor of the Mandarin Hotel and was pronounced dead upon arrival at the hospital. Almost immediately after the message was posted, the media contacted Cecilia’s manager, Yu Yuxing (余毓興), who confirmed that Cecilia is indeed safe and alive. The rumors were purely fabricated. Denies Getting Back Together with Edison Chen Often the center of controversy, Cecilia has been forever linked to Edison Chen (陳冠希) since the 2008 nude photo scandal. With Edison’s recent breakup with girlfriend Ann Hong (洪文安), it was speculated that he was back together with Cecilia. It was reported that Cecilia will attend the grand opening of Edison’s new restaurant in Beijing. Cecilia’s ex-manager and confidante Tiffany Chan (陳嵐) angrily commented, “Where did these rumors come from? Cecilia would never go to Edison’s new store opening. She added, “You are fabricating this; don’t you have to bear responsibility? It’s delusional and the person who wrote it is crazy and gossipy!” Creds: Sina
