Photo scandal
Main article: Edison Chen photo scandal

In January and February 2008, explicit photos were found online involving Chan and Edison Chen. Compromising photos of Chan fellating Chen were leaked over the internet. The scandal also involved Gillian Chung, Cecilia Cheung, and others. The photos badly affected Bobo's career and personal life: strong public scrutiny, cancellation of media contracts, ending all product endorsements in her image, and the end of her engagement. Bobo went into seclusion along with those involved in the photos for over a year. Eventually, Gillian, Cecilia, and Edison had returned to the entertainment industry, however, Bobo never returned. She had quietly left the industry and used the remainder of her resources to create and maintain a private business in jewellery. Although considered retired, she's still friends with many HK celebrities and photos of her would occasionally catch her in public events. close
