The reason Song Joong Ki decided to break the silence and clarified rumors surrounding his wife Katy

The fact that Song Joong Ki suddenly spoke up although the actor and his agency refused to comment on related rumors in the first place draws netizens’ attention.

In December last year, shortly after the drama “Reborn Rich” ended, Song Joong Ki’s romance rumor broke out and the actor quickly admitted to dating Katy Louise Saunders, a former actress who is one year older than Song Joong Ki. Since then, netizens began to raise speculations about their marriage and pregnancy, but Song Joong Ki’s agency refused to answer, saying “We can only confirm the fact that they’re dating”.

In Korea, rumors about Katy spread rapidly in online communities and SNS. Some made speculations about Katy’s family background, while others suspected that she already has two children currently raised by her ex-boyfriend. Netizens even guessed that Song Joong Ki would remarry Katy and she was already pregnant, but his agency did not respond. Song Joong Ki decided to stay silent for his wife, who is now a non-celebrity, although he had many opportunities to explain everything. 

However, not all the rumors were false. Katy’s marriage with Song Joong Ki and her pregnancy were confirmed to be true through the actor’s letter released in his fancafe earlier this year. Rumors surrounding Katy continued to grow even after their marriage announcement, and Song joong Ki’s side once again gave no specific explanation. 

Recently, Song Joong Ki surprised everyone when he suddenly mentioned rumors about his wife in a magazine interview. After expressing his overwhelming affection for Katy, Song Joong Ki firmly said, “I was very angry because more and more ridiculous stories are spreading. Everything is not true, except for the name of the university she attended”, adding “I kept getting angrier but Katy was the person who calmed me down”.

Based on what Song Joong Ki said, it can be presumed that the actor had waited for the right time to explain everything at once. Rather than adding words to rumors when they were in the center of attention, Song Joong Ki made a good choice to protect his wife, who is currently living a normal life as a non-celebrity.
