According to The Straits Times, initially, Huang did not tag Ye in the post, but after fans inquired, he added her account. Shortly after, Ye responded by sharing Huang’s post with a red heart emoji.

Rumors about their relationship gained momentum after reports suggested the couple had already married. A friend of Ye's shared that she had celebrated the Mid-Autumn Festival with Huang's family and his son, further fueling speculation. Additionally, when Ye posted a photo of a diamond ring on social media, it was widely believed to be a proposal gift from Huang.

According to Sohu, Huang and Ye have been dating for over a year and are in a steady relationship. Ye has been seen visiting Huang on film sets and meeting his friends. In June, the couple was spotted on a date after Huang won Best Actor at the Shanghai International Film Festival.

In May, Ifeng reported that Huang visited a theme park with his ex-wife and son, and later that day, took Ye to a high-end restaurant.

Huang, 47, is famous for his roles in "The Return of the Condor Heroes," "Shanghai Bund," and "Summer's Desire." He and Angelababy, 35, went public with their relationship in 2014, got married in 2015, and had a son in 2017 before divorcing in 2022.

Huang reportedly started dating Ye a few months after his separation from Angelababy. Ye, a graduate of Shenzhen University, was previously married to a businessman before their divorce. She is now a well-known influencer and businesswoman, managing her own fashion brand and beauty salon.
