In late 2022, Song Joong Ki left his fans speechless by going public with former Katy actress Louise Saunders. After 1 month, he continued the surprise by announcing his marriage and first child with Saunders. No new information about the wedding has been revealed, but netizens are talking about the actor’s decision to remarry. At the same time, the public also pays special attention to his ex-wife, Song Hye Kyo, as well as his promises to the two different women.
An eerily similar wedding promise
During the “wedding of the century”, Song Joong Ki expressed his desire to face the ups and downs of life with Song Hye Kyo: “I promise to take Song Hye Kyo as my wife. We have come to walk the same path that people around the world have walked before us. Sometimes it will rain, the wind will blow and we may trip over obstacles. But in time we will stand up courageously, holding hands. We’ll smile at each other jokingly and say, “It’s no big deal.” We will learn to continue walking with even more firmness and courage.”
Furthermore, Song Joong Ki promised to spend the rest of his life with Song Hye Kyo and since his partner was Song Hye Kyo, Song Joong Ki decided to spend the rest of his life with her. Unfortunately, two years after their wedding, the couple filed for divorce and found themselves embroiled in a series of disputes.
In his letter announcing his marriage to Katy Louise Saunders, the actor wrote: “I want to share a promise that is happier and more precious to me than anything else. I promised to continue life together with Katy Louise Saunders, who has been by my side supporting me and with whom I have spent precious time loving each other.
The main differences
Although he wanted a long-lasting marriage in both marriages, it is clear how it will end. In his short married life with Song Hye Kyo, the Song-Song couple separated in 2019 to the shock of fans and the public. Subsequently, he found new happiness with Katy Louise Saunders and decided to get married while Song Hye Kyo still led a single life and focused on her career.
Furthermore, the way Song Joong Ki describes his partners also attracted attention. When making his vows to Song Hye Kyo, actor Song used the most lyrical words to describe her as a “beautiful” and “profound” woman with many virtues and learned a lot from her. The praise showed how much the “Descendants of the Sun” star adored his wife at the time.
However, in praising Katy, he described her as “a sensible person”. Previously, Song Joong Ki shared: “My favorite feminine style is a woman who makes sense.It’s safe to say that Katy is the woman of his dreams and he doesn’t hesitate to “show” her to the world.
Recently, Song Joong Ki’s management company shared with Osen: “Song Joong Ki’s wife Katy is pregnant with their second child. We cannot reveal the due date or the gender of the baby as this is private information about the artist. Song Joong Ki and his wife welcomed their first child in June last year.
The news that Song Joong Ki will have children in consecutive years surprised many fans. Song Hye Kyo’s name has once again been widely mentioned on social media.
Some have speculated that Song Joong Ki’s previous marriage may have ended due to differences of opinion on having children. “It seems that Song Joong Ki likes to have many children. This may be the reason why he separated from his ex-wife, as Song Hye Kyo wanted to focus on her career and wasn’t ready to have children yet,” one fan commented.
When Song Joong Ki welcomed the birth of his first child, he wrote in an emotional letter, calling his son “the biggest dream of my life.”
