Overseasidol.com — Between October 19 and 20, 2025, entertainment media spotted actress Deng Jiajia spending time with a mystery man over two consecutive days.
On the first day, the two were seen playing tennis together in matching outfits and later returning to her residence in the same car.
The following day, the man picked her up and drove her out, and the pair were again seen returning home together at night, appearing relaxed and close.
Most netizens reacted positively, offering well-wishes and commenting that “it’s natural for her to find new love while her career is thriving”. Many also called for the public to respect her privacy.
However, some questioned the rumors since Deng’s studio has not made any official statement, arguing that “returning home together doesn’t necessarily mean a relationship”.
Despite this, the majority of opinions supported her right to pursue love freely.
In response to speculation about her past marriage, reports clarified that the claim of a “five-year marriage” is inaccurate.
The correct timeline shows that Deng and her ex-husband Martin Yu were married from November 2014 to January 2019, following a ten-year relationship, which means the actual marriage lasted about four years and two months.
Sources close to the couple revealed that the divorce stemmed from long-distance issues and differences in family planning Deng reportedly wanted children, while Yu preferred a life focused on the two of them.
Netizens defended Deng, saying she was “passionate in love, graceful in parting”.
