It seems that 2018 hasn’t exactly been a festive year for married couples, what with the onslaught of celebrity divorces in the past eleven months alone. For example, we had the divorce of celebrity couples like…
Chris Pratt and Anna Faris
Vanness Wu and Arissa Cheo

And it seems that even the Mediacorp scene is not spared, as local actress Jacelyn Tay has dropped some shell-shocking news on her Instagram:
She’s splitting with her husband of eight years.
Deets
On Sun (18 Nov), the veteran actress caught everyone with their pants off when she announced her impending divorce.
Posting on her Instagram account, Tay stated that she was in the final stage of divorce proceedings, but declined to reveal a reason for the split. She expressed that she didn’t “owe anyone the reason for divorce” except to her son.
Transcript (in case you can’t decipher the text of Insta-hodo):
I am at the final stage of divorce proceedings. Many may be shocked. Don’t worry, me and Zavier are fine.
Happiness is never upon others but self. I always choose to be happy and optimistic no matter what happens. Only a happy person can bring happiness to those whom we love. .
I do not think I owe anyone the reason for divorce except to my son. Even if you guys know, you can’t help or change anything for us. Hence I ask all who truly care for me and Zavier to give us a peaceful Christmas this year. Zavier is now on flight with his daddy to explore Europe. I ask that if you truly love us and want to give support, just give a Like and pray for us. Thank you for your love. . . .

She also requested for a peaceful Christmas, and asked that if her followers truly supported her, to simply issue a like and prayer.
Incidentally, she deleted all Instagram comments, which amounted to a high of more than 400 at its peak.
But still, Netizens managed to have their say
Yahoo News published an article on the topic on 19 Nov, and suffice it to say that many Netizens have read it, and many have commented on it.
Though contrary to what one might believe, it wasn’t all sympathy.
Not by a long shot.

And one even suggested that there was retribution in play.
Backstory
Tay has starred in multiple Mediacorp productions, and was a full-time artiste from 1995-2006. Apart from her exploits, she’s perhaps best known for her spa and wellness business, Body Inc.
In 2010, the actress had married Wong, a former Mediacorp sales executive. Their son, Zavier, was born the very next year.
She now seems to be managed by Fly Entertainment, a talent management company started by Irene Ang.

Whatever it is, we wish her the best.
