Korean superstar Song Joong Ki announced his marriage and new baby with British actress Katy Louise Saunders and a baby is on it’s way for the couple as well.
On January 30th, Song Joong Ki wrote a letter to his fans on his official fan cafe, announcing his marriage to Katy Louise Saunders. In his letter, he wrote:
“Hello, this is Joong Ki. I wanted to share the happiest and most important promise in my life with you all. I have promised Katy Louise Saunders, who has been supporting me and sharing time together, to spend the rest of my life together.
She has a kind heart and she has led a passionate life. She is a wise and amazing person, who I admire. Thanks to her, I’m becoming a better person.
Naturally, we both wanted to make a happy family. We have been trying hard to keep each other’s promise and gratefully, we have welcomed a precious life between the two of us. So today, we have registered our marriage as a couple, based on our deepest love and trust.
We will continue walking our path looking in the same direction. Thank you to all the fans who have been sending unchanging support from the bottom of my heart.
Especially, I will put even more passion and responsibility into becoming a better actor and person as your wish and support throughout my acting career.
I hope you all stay healthy and happy until we can see each other in person.”
Joong Ki’s announcement quashes hopes that there could still be a reunion for “Song Song couple,” his love team with “Descendants of the Star” co-star Song Hye Kyo, who he married in 2017 and divorced in 2019.
Song first confirmed that he was in a relationship with a woman last December. Although he did not confirm her identity at the time, fans and media outlets soon identified Saunders through a speech the actor made at the APAN Star Awards in September 2022.
In the speech, he included thanks to his “beloved Katy, Nala, Maya and Antes”. Nala is Song’s own pet dog, who he has previously featured in photoshoots, while Maya and Antes are Saunders’ dogs.
Besides Vincenzo and Reborn Rich, Song also had a cameo in 2022 K-drama Little Women, as well as a lead role in 2021 Netflix movie Space Sweepers. His upcoming projects include the movie Bogota: City of the Lost.
