Overseasidol.com — Zhejiang TV variety show “Our Love Song”, which invites celebrity couples as guests, recently featured Chinese actress Chen Zihan and her husband Dai Xiangyu.

During the program’s teaser, Chen Zihan made a candid revelation that quickly became a hot topic online.

Chen admitted that she paused her acting career for three years to prepare for pregnancy and went through 12 rounds of IVF treatments.

She emotionally recalled the struggles, saying she and her husband often cried together in the middle of the street.

Her words shocked fellow actresses on the show, including Joe Chen, Zhou Qiqi, and Liu Yun, who expressed disbelief at her perseverance.

When asked if family pressure was the reason, Chen denied it.

She explained that it was her own desire, saying she loves children deeply and believes having a baby is one of life’s most important experiences.

Dai Xiangyu, who once worked in Singapore, chose not to give an in-depth interview but assured that their mood remains stable.

Regarding whether they would continue trying for a baby, he simply responded, “It depends on fate”.

The revelation sparked wide discussions on social media, highlighting the challenges many couples face when pursuing their dream of becoming parents.
