Singer-songwriter Leehom Wang confirms divorce rumors

Taiwanese-American singer-songwriter Leehom Wang (???) confirmed in a Facebook post Wednesday that he and his wife of eight years have filed for divorce.

"We have different ideas and plans for our future, so we decided to separate. Although we have filed for divorce, we will always be family," wrote Wang on his marriage with Lee Jinglei (???).

"I regret not doing enough in our marriage these past few years," Wang wrote, adding that he will make no further comments to the media on the matter.

The Facebook post came after local media reports repeating rumors about Wang's troubled marriage, highlighting the couple's lack of public appearances and interaction on social media over the past two years.

Wang, 45, married Lee in the United States in November 2013 and they have three children.

His career in the entertainment business started when his first Mandopop album was released in Taiwan in 1995. He has since released 15 more albums, written and produced songs for other singers, and had bit parts in several movies.

Wang has won four Golden Melody Awards -- Taiwan's top music awards -- two for best singer and two for best album producer.
