Hong Kong actress Claire Yiu has announced her divorce from entrepreneur Thomas Lam Cho Fai after almost two decades of marriage, China Press reported.
In a recent interview with Hong Kong media, the TVB star revealed that she has been single for several years but clarified that no third party was involved in their separation.
Despite the divorce, Yiu, 45, said she still considers Lam, 60, as family and would continue to co-parent their two children together.
Lam, who’s a former ATV actor, confirmed that he and Yiu have been divorced for some time but emphasised that they still maintain a good relationship.
When asked about the reason for the divorce, Lam declined to share much, saying: “I don’t want to comment on personal matters.
“There’s nothing that can be done when a couple can’t continue together. The most important thing is to move forward,” he said.
Yiu and Lam, who tied the knot in 2006, have two children together – Kyra, 15, and Kyros, 12.
The former couple were heavily involved in the children’s clothing business in their earlier years and have introduced several major brands to Hong Kong.
