On Saturday, multiple Chinese media outlets reported that Cheng Xiao had secretly given birth to an illegitimate child after an affair with Tony Leung, who is 36 years her senior. Speculation surrounding a possible romantic relationship between the pair began last year when they were spotted shopping together, with recent rumors also claiming that Tony Leung had purchased a home in Japan for Cheng Xiao.

Koo Jun-yup, a legendary Korean singer and DJ who married Taiwanese actress Barbie Hsu last year, appeared on a talk show recently and blasted the Chinese media for circulating fake news. 

He said, "There's a lot of fake news and sensationalism out there. I remember there was a story, which claimed that I married my wife because I was broke and that I had stolen her money before fleeing back to Korea."

Tony Leung, 61, made his screen debut in 1983 with the film "Mad, Mad 83" and became an international star with roles in "Days of Being Wild," "Ashes of Time," "Chungking Express," "Happy Together," "In the Mood for Love," "Infernal Affairs," "Hero" and "Lust, Caution."

Cheng Xiao is 25 years old and debuted as a member of the K-pop girl group WJSN in 2016.
