During the candid interview, Tian Wa shared that after her divorce, she became involved with a married man who owned a funeral service company. At the time, she was looking for a new home, and he stepped in to help. Beyond just providing assistance with the house, he also gave her financial support. Reflecting on the relationship, Tian Wa revealed, “He loved his family deeply and couldn’t break his promises to them. When he was at home, I was out of the picture, but when he was outside, he was mine.” She accepted this arrangement, understanding the limitations of their relationship.
The actress also disclosed that the man’s wife knew about their affair. Eventually, the relationship ended when he decided to focus on his family. Despite being labeled as a mistress, Tian Wa expressed no regrets, saying, “People call me a mistress, but the best time of my life was when I was a mistress.”
Even though that chapter has closed, Tian Wa remains active in her love life. She mentioned that she still receives attention from many men, particularly on Facebook. However, she only responds to those who pique her interest. When asked about how she handles inappropriate messages, the actress simply said, “I ignore and block the sender. That’s not something I entertain.”
Tian Wa’s story offers a glimpse into her unapologetic approach to love and life, even as she navigates the complexities of relationships in her later years.
