In early 2026, C-ent was shocked by a photo showing Luhan sleeping next to influencer Tu Xiaodi. The uploader claimed to be in a romantic relationship with Luhan but did not clarify when the photo was taken. Observers speculated that it was around 2021, a time when Luhan was publicly dating Guan Xiaotong. Rumors were circulating that the relationship would deteriorate after Guan discovered his infidelity. Luhan’s camp denied the claims, calling Tu Xiaodi’s statements fabricated and slanderous.
The last known photo of the couple together dates back to late 2024, when they were spotted casually strolling the streets of Japan. In October 2024, they were seen wearing matching masks at a badminton court. But in April 2025, fans noticed that Guan no longer posted birthday wishes for Luhan, which he did every year. Their once public romance quietly faded away.
To date, the hashtag “Luhan and Guan Xiaotong were last seen together” has accumulated over 140 million views and 24,000 comments on Weibo. Many netizens expressed sympathy for Guan, lamenting his lost youth and sacrifices. She had gone public with their relationship at just 19, enduring years of online harassment, constant media scrutiny and career interruptions while Luhan was widely praised and comforted. Countless users have claimed that she “he wasted his youth on someone unworthy”, criticizing Luhan for reportedly cheating on a kind and loyal partner.
Luhan’s fans defended him, however, pointing out that he revealed their relationship in 2017, at the height of his career, a bold move that cost him over 800,000 followers in a single day. Many believe that his willingness to go public then demonstrated his sincerity.
Others took a neutral position, saying that relationships in youth come and go naturally. “Seven years is seven years for both of us” one fan wrote. “It’s not fair to say that someone took away another’s youth. They were happy together. If being together no longer brings joy, breaking up can also be a form of happiness.”
Another popular comment read: “They lived important years of their lives together, which is precious. Even if they broke up, it was an adult decision. Rather than focus on the ending, we should appreciate the time they spent together and Guan’s strength in facing fame with grace. Loving bravely and parting with dignity is a beautiful ending in its own way.”
Luhan had famously declared their relationship on October 8, 2017, posting “This is my girlfriend, Guan Xiaotong” on social media, a move that temporarily crashed Weibo. Although they were open at first, over the next few years they kept their relationship private, rarely appearing together or mentioning each other publicly. The love story that once captivated the Internet ended in a silent parting, confirmed by the fact that their IP headquarters during the Lunar New Year 2025 were in different cities.
Born in 1990, Luhan rose to fame as a member of EXO/EXO-M after training with SM Entertainment. He left the group in 2014 and returned to China, moving into acting and solo music. His career highlights include films and dramas such as 20 Once again, The witnessAND Sweet fightand his debut album achieved platinum status under the IFPI.
One of China’s top entertainment stars, Luhan is known for his huge fan base, high-value endorsements and distinctive images. He owns numerous luxury cars and real estate in Beijing, making him one of C-ent’s most bankable male idols.
Guan Xiaotong, born in 1997 into a respected artistic family, began acting at the age of 4. With over 100 film and television credits, she has gone from “The Nation’s Little Sister” to respected leading actress. His performance in Romance in the alley as Zhuang Xiao Ting has earned his widespread praise. Although her early fame was overshadowed by her relationship with Luhan, she has since reclaimed her career with accolades including the Magnolia Award and major Chinese film awards.
