An old photo of Kim Chiu and Xian Lim recently resurfaced in a social media post by the American entertainment site TMZ, in celebration of Chinese New Year. The only catch is that the two celebrities ended their relationship over a year ago.
"Lunar New Year is officially underway, meaning it’s time to celebrate the Year of the Snake! Lol, pic 4 is an old photo of a Filipino celebrity couple who broke up years ago. I’m sure their respective partners won’t be happy if they spent CNY 2025 together," remarked one netizen. Another user pointed out, "I wanted to kindly point out that the fourth picture might be a bit outdated. Thank you!"
Kim Chiu and Xian Lim parted ways in December 2023 after being together for 12 years. A month post their breakup, Chiu expressed her frustration with fans and the entertainment industry for continuously bringing up the topic of her breakup. "Entering 2024, I really said I just want a fresh start, new beginning and I don’t want to dwell on the past," she shared.
Both Chiu and Lim are prominent artists in the Philippines, and their privacy in such matters is appreciated by their fans. Filipino social media users were quick to respond in the comment section, either correcting the misinformation or suggesting that TMZ update their post to reflect the current situation.
