Chu Vũ Thần (born 1979) is a well-known male actor from China, recognized for his distinctive appearance and masculine charm. He gained significant attention for his role as Hoa Tử in the TV series Struggle and as the young master of the Ngô family in Huy Nương Uyên Tâm. Over time, Chu Vũ Thần’s career has become increasingly popular, yet his fame in showbiz has remarkably declined.
However, there was a period when Chu Vũ Thần was among the top trending names on social media. The reason stems from his two children, as he participated in a parenting program. His experience as a father has sparked widespread discussions, especially regarding his unconventional parenting style.
Strict Parenting and High Expectations
During his appearance on the parenting program, Chu Vũ Thần shared that despite being over 40 years old, he does not allow his children to do anything independently. Every morning, he wakes up at 4 AM to prepare soup for his children, ensuring they never have to enter the kitchen. Regardless of where he goes, he meticulously follows a set routine. Even when he wants to prepare his own meals, his mother intervenes, questioning, “Why should I let you? Aren’t you supposed to be dependent on me?”
Furthermore, prior to participating in the show Huy Nương Uyên Tâm, his mother would wake up at 5:30 AM to prepare breakfast for him. It became a habit for her to check if he was awake or not. If she noticed he was struggling, she would rush to his side, not allowing any delay.
This intense oversight has led Chu Vũ Thần to feel overwhelmed, making it challenging for him to participate in film projects due to his mother’s strong influence.
Reportedly, Chu Vũ Thần has been under his mother’s strict control since childhood. His mother frequently imposed her will, even during significant moments. In 1979, when Chu Vũ Thần was born, his mother immediately reprimanded her daughter for wanting to touch him, saying, “What are you doing? You can’t just treat him like a toy!”
His mother’s affection for him has escalated over time, becoming increasingly controlling. She ensures that he receives everything he desires. If he shows a lack of interest in a meal she prepares, she would scold him, saying, “If I prepare food, you must eat it, no excuses!”
When her son went off to university, his mother continued to closely monitor him. On the first day of classes, she even visited his dormitory to check on him, asking his roommates, “Is anyone skipping class?” She was concerned that if he encountered peers who might influence him negatively, it could affect her son.
This behavior has made Chu Vũ Thần feel extremely frustrated. After his mother left the dorm, he confided to his friends that “my mother is too overbearing.” Frustrated by her controlling nature, he began to make drastic changes to his appearance, growing out his hair and avoiding contact with her calls.
Love Life and Relationships
During his university years, Chu Vũ Thần met his first girlfriend, the famous actress Tang Wei. They had a sweet yet brief romance, which ended prematurely due to his mother’s awareness of the relationship.
When Tang Wei accidentally crushed Chu Vũ Thần’s clothes while doing laundry, his mother was furious. “Why would you wash his clothes like that? You should do it by hand!” she exclaimed.
As their relationship progressed, Chu Vũ Thần and Tang Wei frequently quarreled because his mother was overly involved in their affairs, and he often lacked conviction in standing up for himself. Eventually, the couple parted ways.
Chu Vũ Thần has since navigated several romantic relationships but always finds himself returning to his mother’s nurturing nature, which complicates his dating life. He believes that any potential partner should be someone who can connect with his mother, as he asserts, “The mother must approve of the relationship for it to work.”
Now at the age of 43, Chu Vũ Thần remains single. He is known not to engage in casual relationships and prefers to prioritize his relationship with his mother over dating. Due to his mother’s strong influence, he has even expressed a desire to “write a letter to formally explain my situation.”
Many fathers and mothers struggle with their children’s upbringing, and it’s evident that the overprotective nature of Chu Vũ Thần’s mother has left him feeling vulnerable, leading to a lifestyle lacking independence and a firm stance in relationships.
Despite being over 40, many believe that if his mother continues to be overly controlling, Chu Vũ Thần may find it challenging to establish a family of his own. Chu Vũ Thần once remarked to his mother, “You have 50% of the responsibility for my happiness.”
