Song
Joong-Ki has found himself at the centre of a wave of online speculation after videos and social media posts claimed that he and his wife Katy Louise Saunders were headed for a divorce. The unverified rumours quickly spread across platforms, with sensational headlines presenting the alleged split as fact despite the absence of any official statement or credible reports. As the claims gained traction, some social media users even dubbed the Vincenzo star the "Korean Aamir Khan," referencing the Bollywood actor's two divorces. However, fans were quick to push back, calling out the misleading AI content and urging others not to believe it.
Song Joong-Ki and wife Katy are divorcing?
Fresh claims alleging that Song Joong-Ki and his wife, Katy Louise Saunders, are headed for a divorce have been circulating widely across YouTube and social media. Several videos have used sensational titles such as "Exclusive Report," "Second Divorce at 40," and "Final Period," presenting the alleged split as an established fact. However, there has been no official announcement from the
Vincenzo star, Katy Saunders, or the actor's agency confirming any separation.The rumour appears to have originated from an AI-generated YouTube video that used sensational headlines, manipulated visuals and news-style thumbnails to make the claim appear authentic. The video offered no verifiable evidence or official sources to support its allegations, despite presenting the supposed divorce as confirmed.
The misinformation has sparked widespread criticism online. Many fans questioned why unverified claims were being circulated as factual news, with several pointing out that the videos appeared to be AI-generated or designed solely to attract views. As reported by South Korean media, including
Chosun Biz, one user wrote, "Why are fake news articles posted so brazenly?" Another commented, "Why are they being divorced when they're doing well?" Others added, "This should be legally sanctioned," and urged viewers, "Don't believe just the video titles."
Amid the growing discussion, one social media user claimed that Song Joong-Ki was divorcing his wife again, prompting another to refer to the
Descendants Of The Sun star as the "Korean Aamir Khan," a comparison seemingly based on Aamir Khan's two public divorces. The remark quickly gained attention online, although it was rooted in the same unverified divorce speculation.
For the unversed,
Song Joong-Ki's first divorce was with actress Song Hye-Kyo. They were affectionately called the "Song-Song couple" by fans.
