While talking about the public perception within the realm of celebrity culture in China., Fa said,
“Some people in the public have labelled Wang Leehom a scoundrel because of his [marriage scandal]. This led me to think that there a few of these guys in showbiz. One of them is Jackie Chan… The second is Jet Li.”
But can Jet Li really be compared to Wang Leehom? After his three-year marriage to his first wife, Li fell in love with his co-actor, whom he married in 1990. Unlike Leehom’s controversial and ugly divorce trials, Li’s divorce from his ex-wife was much smoother. In fact, his former wife is still a steadfast supporter of Li, years after their divorce.
