TAIWANESE actor Darren Wang and his Malaysian girlfriend Joey Chua have stopped following each other on Instagram, fuelling speculation that they had broken up, China Press reported.
A journalist who did a search found that the couple had unfollowed each other on the social media platform.
Chua also posted cryptic messages on Instagram, saying: “Many things have happened and I have gone through a lot since May 20. Whatever that happened to me was special and inconceivable.”
She went on to express gratitude to those who loved her.
“This has been a ‘long’ month. If there is no pain, then we would not know what is happiness at the age of 29.
“This is the beginning of life. Be brave Chua, don’t be afraid of challenges,” she told herself.
Wang and Chua, who is a Johorean, made public their relationship in December last year after dating for more than a year.
