Yang Ying, professionally known as Angelababy, is a renowned Chinese model, actress, and singer, born in Shanghai to a Shanghainese mother and a father from Hong Kong, who has mixed ancestry, being of half German and half Chinese descent. Her father, a fashion business owner in Shanghai, instilled in her a passion for fashion from a young age.
At the tender age of 13, Angelababy relocated to Hong Kong, where she signed a modeling contract with Style International Management at just 14 years old. Fluently speaking English, Mandarin, Shanghainese, Japanese, and Cantonese, she effortlessly navigates various languages.
Angelababy's personal life has been shrouded in mystery, but it was revealed in February 2014 that she had been in a six-year relationship with Chinese actor Huang Xiao Ming, 11 years her senior. The couple tied the knot on May 27, 2015, in Qingdao, China, and their extravagant wedding banquet took place in Shanghai on October 8, 2015, reportedly costing a staggering US$31 million.
In October 2016, Huang and Angelababy announced her pregnancy, and she gave birth to their son on January 17, 2017, at the Hong Kong Adventist Hospital. However, the couple's fairytale romance came to an abrupt end on January 28, 2022, when they announced their divorce.
