Hong Kong actress Myolie Wu is vacationing with her family in the Maldives and, in the process, dispelling any lingering rumours that her marriage is on the rocks.

“Our annual date with the ocean, love this paradise,” the 45-year-old wrote on social media on July 23, posting several photos of herself and her family at a lagoon resort.

The actress, who recently starred in Chinese TV series A Better Life (2025), is married to British-born businessman Philip Lee, 52. They have three sons aged four to seven.

The five of them were dressed in shades of blue in the photos, with Wu resting her hands on her husband’s shoulder in one picture.

She added on Chinese social media platform Xiaohongshu: “Although the weather isn’t great, it’s a sunny day as long as we are together.”

Mr Lee was in the news in March when he was spotted by a Hong Kong magazine hugging several women at a pub while celebrating his birthday. He took to Instagram to address the report, saying that he was a “big hugger”.

Wu did not react publicly to the incident for a while. Neither did she appear in the Instagram photos posted by Mr Lee of their youngest son’s birthday in April, raising speculation of marital woes.

The actress broke her silence in May, telling the media that it was a misunderstanding.

“In fact, those present that night were close friends and relatives,” she said. “The two women who were photographed hugging my husband are friends whom I have known for many years, and their husbands were also present.”

Wu added: “My husband hugged both men and women. It was normal social interaction with his friends.”

Referring to her marriage, she said: “There are absolutely no problems in our relationship.”
