| Mickey Huang & Summer Meng Quietly Call It Quits After Five Stormy Years (Star ETT) |
What once looked like a picture-perfect celeb love story has officially come to an end. Taiwanese TV host Mickey Huang and actress Summer Meng have reportedly wrapped up their five-year marriage — quietly, but firmly.
Multiple Taiwanese media outlets confirmed this week that the couple, long regarded as one of Taiwan’s most high-profile entertainment duos, have legally divorced. The proceedings were done hush-hush, but court documents and insider tips eventually found their way to the press (as they always do).
This news isn’t entirely out of the blue. Huang’s dramatic fall from grace over the past two years has loomed large over the couple’s image — and clearly, their relationship. The now 53-year-old host was hit with serious allegations in mid-2023 when two women came forward with #MeToo-era claims dating back nearly a decade.
It all escalated quickly — his house and studio were raided, thousands of dodgy files were found, and in December 2024, he was sentenced to eight months behind bars and fined after being convicted for possessing illegal material.

Though both the prosecution and Huang appealed the verdict, the damage — both personal and professional — was already done.
Summer Meng, 33, who rose to fame in dramas like Love, Timeless and Single Ladies Senior, initially stood by her husband. She even publicly defended him at the peak of the storm, a move that sparked fierce backlash online and led to her pulling out of her lead role in The Thrifty Family (2024). Her once-bright acting career dimmed under the weight of public opinion.
The couple married in March 2020 after seven years of dating and welcomed their daughter — affectionately nicknamed “Xiao Yumi” (Little Corn) — in May 2022. Throughout the early years of parenthood, the pair often posted loved-up family snaps online, serving domestic bliss realness… until things went radio silent.
Now, with divorce confirmed, it's reported that Summer will take full custody of their daughter. As for Mickey? His assets — at least the ones not frozen or seized — are reportedly earmarked to support Xiao Yumi’s upbringing.

Mickey’s lawyer, Hsiao Chi-yun, kept things vague but told the press: “Thank you for your concern. They will prioritise their family.” Not exactly a denial, and definitely not a glowing update either.
It’s hard to overstate how much this couple meant to the public at one point. They were the sweethearts of red carpets, variety shows, and magazine features — proof, supposedly, that love could thrive in the fickle world of showbiz. But as we’ve seen time and time again, not all that glitters stays gold. The pressure of scandal, court battles, and public judgement clearly took its toll.
Fans have expressed a mix of relief and sadness online. Some are backing Summer for stepping away and putting her daughter first. Others are mourning what could’ve been: a once-solid duo brought down by controversy and consequence.
Whatever side you’re on, it’s clear this chapter has officially closed. And while Mickey faces his legal road ahead, Summer’s fans are already rooting for a strong comeback — solo, on her own terms, and far from the shadow of scandal!
