Hong Kong actress Jacqueline Wong is paying a heavy price for her affair with married actor Andy Hui — literally.
After advertisements and commercials featuring the disgraced star were taken off the air, brands are apparently seeking HK$10 million ($1.7 million) from Wong for breaching her contracts, Oriental Daily News reported.
Broadcaster TVB was also forced to spend a hefty sum to reshoot and recast Wong’s roles in the upcoming dramas Forensic Heroes IV and Finding Her Voice following the cheating scandal.
Several entertainment portals have reported that the network is demanding the former Miss Hong Kong contestant to pay them HK$30 million as compensation, though TVB executive Virginia Lok has rubbished the claims.
Other reports say that Wong may have to file for bankruptcy if she is unable to cough up enough money for the compensation fees.
