A Hong Kong court has denied bail to internet personality “Mr Ho” after he pleaded guilty to stabbing his 45-year-old wife “Mrs Ho” in a domestic violence dispute that escalated into a criminal case.The District Court on Wednesday heard that Ho Huen, 79, pleaded guilty to attacking his 45-year-old wife Ye Xiuding, known as Mrs Ho, with a folding knife as she was leaving their home for mainland China.Both Mr and Mrs Ho were charged with unlawfully and maliciously wounding each other during a fight at the lobby of a public housing estate on May 30 last year.Judge Stanley Chan Kwong-chi said before a public gallery packed with observers that a custodial sentence was unavoidable, revoking Ho’s bail until June 3 for sentencing, pending a psychological report.The couple’s relationship entered the public eye after they appeared on a prime-time television programme in 2024, sharing their love story and displaying luxurious gifts, which sparked debate over their eligibility for public housing.The internet-famous couple married in March 2024, but their relationship deteriorated as they became involved in domestic disputes that allegedly turned violent, with Mrs Ho repeatedly expressing her wish for a divorce.
