Marriage problem surfaces in October
Gary and Wu have a pair of children – Joe and Grace. After marriage, he lost control of his emotions after drinking many times. Since last year, the two rarely interact publicly or social media.
This year, Wu broke her silence in October, saying, “The load I have endured has exceeded what I can afford’, revealing more of her state of mind.
Before he returned to Malaysia, he confessed to the media that he was in a cold war with his wife and revealed that the duo were trying to restore their relationship, reported Oriental Daily.
However, the Chinese daily reported that they weren’t sure they could live peacefully for the rest of their lives. They only hoped that the whole process would not hurt their children.
