Breakups can be hard to accept.
The person you love and trust most in the world no longer has any affection for you and wants to part.
It’s a truth that can be hard to wrap your head around.
Most people eventually come to accept this truth, and move on with their lives.
But for others, it makes life not worth living.
Miss HK Contestant’s Ex-BF Allegedly Committed Suicide After She Dumped Him
Sam Cheung, the ex-boyfriend of Miss Hong Kong 2020 contestant Jessica Liu, has reportedly committed suicide months after a messy breakup in October 2020.
Before his death, the 27-year-old posted an Instagram story, saying he had been “suffering for two months both mentally and physically” and “couldn’t take it any longer”.
According to The Standard, the pair met on a dating app in March last year, and dated for more than a year.
In the beginning of October 2020, Cheung made the headlines for calling out actor Danny Hung on Instagram for getting too close to his girlfriend.
Cheung and Liu later said this was a misunderstanding, but 10 days later, Liu reportedly broke up with Cheung.
Cheung then posted this on Instagram:
“I’ve experienced all kinds of sad things with you in the last year and a half. When you had your low and difficult moments, I never left your side. Why are you doing this to repay me for all the sacrifices I made for you in the last year and a half? I’ve always treated you like family. Why did you choose to heartlessly leave me over such trivial problems? Is it because you joined the entertainment industry to broaden your horizons and now that you look back, you feel like I am nothing?”
Accused Cheung of Stalking, Intimidating, and Sexually Harassing Her
9 days after Cheung’s post, Liu posted a series of Instagram stories accusing an unnamed person of hacking her social media accounts, as well as stalking, intimidating, and sexually harassing her.
The accused is widely believed to be Cheung.
According to Liu, Cheung even threatened her family and once stole her phone from her on the street.
“He also bombarded me with WhatsApp messages. He called me up to 100 times a day till my phone ran out of battery and badmouthed me on Instagram posts.”
For Liu, these actions just drove her further away.
“You have to understand that these are not gestures of love. Please do not harass me, my friends or family anymore, There’s a lot of things that I could call the police over, but please consider why I have not called the police despite being harassed for over a month, or why I didn’t respond to being attacked by strangers. If you are the victim, is this the best ending that you wanted?”
She also claimed that Cheung had repeatedly threatened to “jump down”.
Left Behind Suicide Note
On 2 Dec, Cheung followed through on his threat, and jumped off a building in what was believed to be an attempt to commit suicide.
The ambulance rushed the unconscious 27-year-old to the hospital, but the damage had been done, and he was pronounced dead.
Cheung’s younger sister said she found a suicide note on his computer, which stated that Cheung had attempted to jump off the building about five to six times in the past few months.
It also described Liu as “the love of his life”.
They had only dated for a year and a half, but Cheung saw Liu as her lifelong partner and wanted to get married.
Recent setbacks in his career have also brought him emotional distress.
He couldn’t accept the breakup, and was unable to find a reason to keep on living.
His sister has since confirmed his death on Instagram.
Netizens Don’t Understand Whole Story
Before his death, Liu said that netizens don’t understand the whole story, that there’s more than meets the eye.
When asked about Cheung’s death, Liu said she was busy and could not comment.
The 24-year-old has also allegedly blocked Cheung’s sister’s number.
Cheung’s sister thanked those who sent messages of concern and said she’ll provide information if a funeral is held.
