After Dong Xuan announced her remarriage, her longtime close friend Tong Liya has also become a trending topic. Many netizens are curious about her current relationship status, especially since Dong Xuan mentioned that “Tong Liya has started to believe in love again,” which fueled further public interest.
However, compared to her private life, Tong Liya’s career achievements in recent years have been more remarkable. Since her divorce, she has steadily gained recognition through her own talent and high-quality works, securing valuable opportunities on mainstream platforms. This rise has also led to various speculations about the support behind her success.
Last year, director Lu Chuan’s wife, Hu Die, sparked discussions by liking a negative post about Tong Liya. Some believe this could be linked to resource competition. As a prominent TV host, Hu Die was once seen as a potential successor to major national anchors like Dong Qing and Zhou Tao, but Tong Liya’s sudden rise may have intensified this rivalry.
Additionally, Tong Liya and her ex-husband Chen Sicheng jointly operate a film investment company, which has gained a strong foothold in the film market. Their influence has inevitably caused tension with other industry players. Regardless of these rumors, Tong Liya’s determination and independence remain her greatest strengths as she continues to thrive in her career.
