Yuki, 33, confirmed his relationship with Nishino, 29, in July last year after publications reported that they were living together.

Han So-hee and Ryu Jun-yeol break up

South Korean actors Han So-hee, 29, and Ryu Jun-yeol, 37, have broken up two weeks after their romance went public.

So-hee's agency 9ato Entertainment told Edaily that the two found their roles as actors to be "more important".

"They promised to no longer be emotionally exhausted with their personal life. So-hee gave herself and the public a difficult time due to her personal emotions. Her method of communication was incorrect. She will accept any criticism."

They added that they were "greatly responsible" for not looking after So-hee as her agency.

Jun-yeol's agency C-JeS Studio also confirmed the breakup to the media.

Rumours of So-hee and Jun-yeol's relationship started on March 15 after the two were seen together in Hawaii.

After initially denying the rumours, So-hee admitted to dating Jun-yeol the next day. C-JeS Studio confirmed their relationship later on.

So-hee faced harsh criticism from netizens as they accused her of being the third party in Jun-yeol's seven-year relationship with actress and Girls' Day member Hyeri.

So-hee refuted the rumours and stated that she met Jun-yeol after he and Hyeri had gone their separate ways.

Wang Xiaofei is engaged

On March 28, Taiwanese singer-actress Barbie Hsu's ex-husband Wang Xiaofei shared that he has proposed to his girlfriend Mandy.

The 42-year-old Chinese entrepreneur posted a photo of Mandy, a Taiwanese influencer, wearing a diamond ring and added that she said yes.

"I still love Taiwan but I love Mandy even more. Thank you all for your blessings!" he wrote.

Since their divorce in 2021, Xiaofei and Barbie have been at each other's throats.

Recently, Barbie accused Xiaofei of adultery and violence, which led to Xiaofei visiting her home and threatening to report her to the police for alleged drug abuse.
