According to the media, Barbie Hsu's ashes were brought from Japan to Taiwan (China) by the late actress's husband - Korean singer Koo Jun Yup (DJ Koo), Barbie Hsu's younger sister and relatives on a VistaJet flight on the afternoon of February 5.
However, on the social network Weibo, information appeared that Tu Hy Vien's ex-husband - businessman Uong Tieu Phi - was the one who hired a private plane to bring his ex-wife's ashes back to her hometown, at a cost of nearly 400,000 NDT.
Wang Xiaofei's mother - businesswoman Truong Lan "liked" a post with the above content, causing the rumor to spread and be discussed even more.
On February 6, Barbie Hsu’s family denied this rumor. Barbie Hsu said that her sister’s funeral, including all preparations such as renting a plane, was taken care of by the Barbie family and attended by Barbie Hsu’s husband, DJ Koo.
“Everything was taken care of by the Xu family and my husband Mike. Why is there a lie now that Wang Xiaofei rented the plane? I really don't understand. God is watching what we do, especially when my sister is in heaven. Will such unacceptable lies continue to appear?" - Xu Xi Di was upset.
Barbie Hsu's relatives scolded Wang Xiaofei for "blatantly lying". Wang Xiaofei and his mother let the rumor spread without speaking up to correct it.
Also on February 6, businesswoman Truong Lan opened a livestream to sell products on her social media account and mentioned Barbie Hsu. Many netizens flooded the livestream to criticize Truong Lan as a liar, using her deceased ex-daughter-in-law to "catch interactions".
In response, Truong Lan maintained a firm stance, asserting that she had nothing to be ashamed of and said that her lawyer was collecting evidence from those who spread defamatory information about her. But after only about an hour, Truong Lan's livestream was suddenly banned.
Previously, Wang Xiaofei caused controversy when she appeared with a depressed image and red eyes at Taoyuan airport, after the news of Tu Hy Vien's death. Facing the media, Wang Xiaofei said: "She will forever be my family."
It is known that Uong Tieu Phi hurriedly flew from Thailand to Taiwan (China) when he heard the bad news. He walked in the rain for more than 30 minutes on the street in a daze, then returned home.
The businessman also left many comments missing his ex-wife under the video when the two participated in the TV show: "I miss you so much", "The one who should have died was me".
Netizens criticized Wang Xiaofei for deliberately "pretending" and "acting out" the death of Tu Hy Vien, despite having a new wife.
Barbie Hsu and Wang Xiaofei's 10-year marriage ended badly at the end of 2021. Barbie Hsu once confirmed that she was mistreated and abused by her ex-husband during her pregnancy and witnessed Wang Xiaofei's infidelity.
Before Barbie Hsu passed away, the property division lawsuit between her and her ex-husband had not yet ended.
