A controversy involving singer Chen Xuenong and her husband Li Ruibin has drawn widespread attention online, following allegations of premarital infidelity that were later partially retracted by the original source.
On January 24, screenshots of alleged chat records were circulated on social media, claiming that Li Ruibin had maintained inappropriate contact with another woman on December 23, 2025, prior to his marriage. The posts included references to contraceptive purchases and a hotel verification code, alongside a written accusation alleging infidelity before the couple’s marriage registration.
Around the same time, Wanyan Jiayi, a former contestant on CHUANG, was named in online speculation regarding a trip with Li Ruibin in November. She later deleted related posts and responded that the removal was due to malicious online attacks, adding that she bore no responsibility for the situation.
However, later that same day, the individual who initially released the allegations issued a public apology on Xiaohongshu, admitting that the chat records and hotel booking images had been digitally fabricated. The person stated that the motivation was to gain online attention and expressed willingness to face legal consequences. The absence of original evidence further complicated public assessment of the claims.
The situation has also been viewed in light of Li Ruibin’s recent actions. On January 19, he addressed separate rumors during a livestream, presenting documentation related to property ownership and stating that legal measures had been initiated against false claims. The rapid emergence of another controversy shortly afterward led some observers to question the coherence of the allegations.
Chen Xuenong and Li Ruibin publicly confirmed their relationship on November 22, 2025, and held their wedding on January 17, 2026, a span of just 56 days. This accelerated timeline has contributed to heightened public scrutiny.
At present, online opinion remains divided. Many commentators have condemned the fabrication of evidence for attention, calling for legal accountability, while others argue that a clearer examination of the timeline is necessary before drawing conclusions. No further detailed statements have yet been released by the parties involved.
