Behind the Scenes: Chen Hsing-yu's Divorce! Why Chao Chien-ming Didn't Take One Action Toward Chen Shui-bian, and Local Circles Already Found It Suspicious

Facing the fallout from a marital scandal, Chen Hsing-yu, the eldest daughter of former President Chen Shui-bian, updated the Google Business listing review for her ex-husband Chao Chien-ming's orthopedic clinic for the second time on August 14, 2026, strongly rebutting his public clarification. Chen stated that the content of the clinic's clarification was entirely written by a nurse surnamed Hsu, and she had known nothing about it initially. If Chao believed the statement was untrue, she challenged him: 'Then scold your own nurse instead of putting gold leaf on your face.' Although Chen Hsing-yu has never participated in politics, she has long been a media target due to being Chen Shui-bian's daughter. Her marriage to Chao, which began with a sudden wedding, has been turbulent, and she is once again in the media spotlight due to this divorce controversy. Looking back at the incident, Chen first posted a one-star negative review on Chao's clinic page, accusing him of careless and perfunctory diagnoses toward her and their biological son. She revealed that her younger son's fracture was only treated with PRP injections, while her own torn shoulder tendon had been misdiagnosed as 'frozen shoulder' for five years, receiving repeated hyaluronic acid and steroid injections. She further exposed that during Chao's imprisonment, a nurse caused a disturbance at his dental clinic, and after their divorce, the Hsu nurse claimed she had been pursued by Dr. Chao. Chen criticized that Dr. Chao preferred to remain estranged from his three sons rather than end his entanglement with the nurse, urging the public to carefully choose medical clinics. The review was discovered by netizens and shared on the social platform Threads, triggering massive online discussion.
