The couple, who married in 2017 and share a son and a daughter, have long been regarded by fans as one of Hong Kong’s most devoted celebrity families, making the news a surprise.
The 44-year-old actor – who played racer Takeshi Nakazato in the 2005 film Initial D – shared the announcement on social media, saying it was a mutual decision.
“We have reached a consensus, respecting and blessing each other’s choices in life,” Yue wrote, as translated by The Standard.

“The love within our family is still complete.”
She said that despite not knowing what the future holds, she was grateful for the years they shared together.
