Fans previously confronted Tian Xu Ning with personal accusations mid-flight

The recent situation followed an earlier airport incident involving fans attempting to get close to the actor before boarding on July 4. Moreover, on the same day, a mid-air confrontation occurred when several travelers on a separate commercial flight directed verbal accusations at Tian Xu Ning.

Witnesses reported that some passengers made comments suggesting he was secretly in a relationship and had a child. Phrases overheard included (Koreaboo reported):

“Tell your girlfriend to stop appearing in public,” “Break up with her,” and “Is the kid really yours?”

His agency, Huance, promptly addressed the claims, stating that rumors of Tian Xu Ning being "married with children" are malicious fabrications with no factual basis.
