2026 was a big year for the Chinese actor Jing Boran, who captivated the global audience with his sharp-tongued role in Netflix series, The Early Spring.
Amid the popularity of the show, Jing's long-term girlfriend, Liu Wen, made headlines after netizens criticised the supermodel for "ruining" their fictional ship.

About Jing Boran and Liu Wen's romance
Jing and Liu were first linked romantically in 2019, while working on a Chanel campaign.
The romance speculation intensified after they were spotted spending time with each other and holding hands in 2022.

Being one of the most high-profile couples in China, both Jing and Liu have kept their relationship private; however, their romance became a hot topic as The Early Spring ranked charts, with the CP fans wanting the model to "keep her distance" during the drama's promotion.
The controversy began after Liu Wen liked an Instagram promotional post for her long-time boyfriend, actor Jing Boran, who stars in the drama The Early Spring alongside actress Sun Qian.
Overly invested fans on Chinese social media platforms accused the model for "running" the fictional romance, and demanding that Liu break up with her boyfriend so he could "be with" his on-screen partner.
Liu Wen's impressive career
While netizens have downplayed her identity as "Jing Boran's girlfriend", Liu has made a name for herself in the fashion world.
Liu made history in 2009 as the first East Asian model to walk in the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. She has also made appearance at prominent industry events, including Paris Fashion Week, the Met Gala, and the Cannes Film Festival in 2026.
Her career also includes several other industry milestones. She became the first Asian face of Estée Lauder and the first Chinese model to appear on the cover of American Vogue, featuring in the magazine's March 2017 issue.
Moreover, Liu was named as one of the highest-paid models by Forbes.
