Jet Li: 'My wife bought homes for my two daughters from a previous marriage'

Chinese martial arts star Jet Li revealed his wife, Nina Li Chi, regularly sent money and purchased homes for his daughters from his previous marriage.

According to Sina, the 63-year-old actor hosted a talk show about his personal life and career, interviewed by his daughter Jada, whose mother is Miss Asia 1986 Nina Li Chi, Jet Li's current wife. In the first episode, the father and daughter discussed long-standing rumors regarding the star's relationship with his two daughters from his first wife, Huang Qiuyan.

For decades, Jet Li was rumored to have "neglected" his daughters, Li Si and Li Taimi. He stated that right after their marriage, Nina Li Chi offered to send money for their education on his behalf. At that time, the two children were cared for by their mother and Jet Li's siblings.

According to Jet Li, Nina Li Chi regularly sent money to his daughters, enough for them to live comfortably their entire lives, even without working. Nina Li Chi once bought homes in the US and China for the two girls. Upon reaching adulthood, Li Si and Li Taimi started working and became self-sufficient, proactively telling Nina Li Chi that they no longer needed additional financial support. "Our children said that our well-being and health are enough. They even told their aunt (Nina Li Chi) to focus on caring for their birth mother, as they no longer need money," Jet Li stated.

In recent years, family relationships have been harmonious, and Jet Li has not had to worry. Occasionally, his two daughters visit him and Nina Li Chi in Singapore. Since Li Si and Li Taimi reside in the US, whenever they visit, the couple meets and spends time with them.

His two eldest daughters once worried about their father due to rumors, especially when someone claimed to be Jet Li's child and posted "resentful messages about their father." They asked the star for his opinion on speaking out to clarify, but he discouraged it. The daughters prefer a private and peaceful life, and he wishes for them to live peacefully, away from controversy.

Jet Li and Huang Qiuyan married in 1987 and divorced after three years. Huang Qiuyan remarried in 2005 and currently lives in the US.

In 1999, the star registered his marriage with Nina Li Chi. On SMG Shanghai TV, the actor once said his wife lived a private life, had few friends, cared only for her husband and daughters, and was not interested in jewelry or luxury brands. The action star entrusted all his assets to Nina Li Chi's management, following her advice on investments and expenditures. He praised his wife for raising their children well, noting that their two daughters did not cause them any worries regarding their studies. Their eldest daughter, Jane, graduated from Harvard University and actively participates in social activities.

Born in 1963 in Beijing, Jet Li studied martial arts from a young age. From 1975 to 1979, the actor won the All-China Wushu Championship five consecutive times. In 1980, at the age of 17, Jet Li rose to fame with the film *Shaolin Temple*, subsequently starring in numerous blockbuster martial arts films such as *Once Upon a Time in China*, *Swordsman*, *Hero*, *Fearless*, and *Fist of Legend*. This year, he participated in several martial arts-themed short films.
