Christine Kuo Moves Out and Lives Separately From Husband

Since Miss International Chinese Christine Kuo (苟芸慧) married wealthy second-generation William Luk (陸漢洋) in 2018, she has been leading a leisurely life, taking baking lessons, enjoying high tea sessions with her friends, and travelling around the world. Despite her financially-stress-free life, the 37-year-old actress is having marital problems and has moved out of her shared home with William.

When not busy managing his business, William spends his free time car racing. Aside from spending less time together, William is not interested in having children while Christine eagerly wants to become a mother. Arguing since last year, Christine returned to her hometown in Canada alone and spent a long period of time apart from her husband.

During this period, they rarely updated their social media and had zero interactions online. The last time they had a picture together on social media was in October 2020, when they celebrated their second wedding anniversary. At the time, she sweetly expressed, “This year had many obstacles, but I’m grateful I have you!” but their marriage seems to have turned cold in recent months.

Christine Moves Out

Friends thought the couple’s marriage could be saved when Christine returned to Hong Kong in April, but she looked for a new place to live. William tried his best to save the relationship, but Christine insisted on living separately. In May, she officially moved out of their home in Bel-air Residences to a rental home near Kowloon station.

After a period of not updating her social media, Christine suddenly revealed she cleared out 20 boxes of belongings recently through donations and giveaways. Signifying a new start in life, her messaging app display picture was changed to:  “Dear past, thank you for your lesson. Dear future, I’m ready. Dear God, thank you for another chance.”

Husband Doesn’t Want Children

The biggest source of conflict between Christine and William is speculated to be their opposing views over having children.

Christine has always liked children, and seeing her good friends Linda Chung (鍾嘉欣), Eliza Sam (岑麗香), and Leanne Li (李亞男) become mothers made her hopeful to expand her own family. Christine had dreamed of having four children.

Growing up with divorced parents, William has a very close bond with his mother but he is not eager to become a father yet. On his wedding day, he disclosed that he does not want to have children and would like to enjoy their time as a couple first.

Feeling the pressure of her biological clock ticking, Christine undergone oocyte cryopreservation surgery last year. She had neglected to give herself adequate time to recover afterward and had a health scare. Although hospitalized, luckily no harm was caused.

Her bad luck continued, as she fainted and hit her head while quarantining in a hotel in Canada. She was lying on her bed looking at her iPad when she suddenly felt dizzy and fell. Her head immediately started bleeding and she was rushed to the hospital. When reporters asked why William allowed his wife to return to Canada alone, he had too much work and could not find time to accompany Christine’s home visit.

Reporters contacted Christine and William regarding their recent marital rumors, but the couple did not directly respond. While many speculate they may be on the verge of divorce, Christine’s manager replied, “Their relationship is okay,” but declined to disclose additional details.

      I agree and when any couple has big red flags,they need to solve them before marriage. They should not think that they get married and things will get better because they will not. It will just get worse and lead to divorce.

      Having kids a very big and important issue that needs to be addressed before marriage. Sadly I think they just wanted to have a big wedding which is the easy part but the marriage itself is what the challenge is.

  1. Children become more important than the husband after women have them so she should take a deep look at whether she wants to sacrafice this and stay childless the rest of her life with this man.

    1. @megamiaow
      True to some extent as some women still value their spouse even after having kids. Some put their spouses above their kids as the spouse is the one who is supposed to stay with you for life if you don’t divorce. The kids will leave and have their own life. But what you said is generally true.

    2. @megamiaow prior my child, I put my husband first. after my child, he’s like third on my priority list. it can’t be helped, a screaming baby and small children will always take your attention before anything else. but this can be different depending on how supportive your spouse is and how much they dedicate their efforts into the relationship and your children. my husband tries, but he works a lot, so I don’t get a lot of help from him. so when my resources are low, he becomes even lower on my priority scale.

      before my kid, when ppl said you should always put your spouse as #1 priority, it made a lot of sense to me. but now that I have one, my focus has turned towards my kid 100%. and whoever is not so great at childcare, like my husband, can get out of the way if they’re not helping. you can say that’s neglectful of the relationship, but this can’t just be a one-sided effort. emotional burden is always placed on women to take care of the relationship, but I can’t be both focused on childcare and my husband. It doesn’t work like that.

  2. Finances and children should be discussed and moral character should be understood before marriage. People change but it’s not your job nor can you change people.

  3. Kids, finances and religion are the biggest dealbreakers of any relationship. She really should’ve hashed this out with her husband prior marriage.

      1. @rika
        I doubt it is politics only. When a couple hardly even knew each other and just goes straight into engagement and then marriage that fast, there will definitely be a lot of problems. That is why it is important to get to know your spouse well prior to marriage but even that is not a guarantee. However, in their case they just blindly jumped straight into it in a moment of passion but after the passion has worn out reality now sets in….

      2. @rika true, during the Trump presidential era, I heard of many couples who divorced as a result lol. very polarizing values.

      3. @coralie Trump really revealed people’s deep seeded hate and tested their moral compasses. It is hard to spend your life together when base values do not align. Lucky for those dating, they have a litmus test. Us established folks have a harder time sorting things out.

      4. @potatochip
        I got to say even if people don’t like Trump, you can’t blame it all on him. If couples cannot work out their differences then they just cannot. It is sad if you let politics, religion or anything ruin your life and marriage.

      5. @hetieshou I am not blaming him, he is just the black light that shows what can’t be seen with the naked eye. It is still one’s choice to support him or not. I wouldn’t say it is sad that a relationship is ruined by politics or religion. These are core values. What is sad is that they weren’t discussed before one commits.

        But life is too short to live unhappily. People do change and evolve. If your values no longer align, if you are no longer in love, you each deserve to find your own happiness without judgement.

  4. If she wants children that bad and she knew he’s not in a hurry to have children why even bother to married him? Well of course he’s got the money and I’m surprised that he’s not in a hurry to have kid? Most rich people are in a hurry to have kid so they can pass their will to their kids. She probably ended up divorced if she still can’t have kid later she maybe regret it for married the wrong man.

  5. Honestly, she married him for wealth…after divorced, he will have to pay her alimony… She can then remarry a suitable person to have kids.

    1. @hohliu
      Hm… good point and maybe that was her plan. She marries him, divorces him, gets some money and then moves on to another guy. If so, she sounds like a gold digger…
