Singaporean actress Chen Yixin, 26, has relocated to Paris, according to a social media post she made on Tuesday. In her video, Chen expressed her desire to explore a new life and grow beyond the boundaries of the public eye.

Chen mentioned that she was sensitive to unnecessary remarks and that it negatively impacted her. She also realized she no longer felt connected to the content she created due to her reluctance to share her true self. In the video, Chen even wrote a letter but chose to record it instead, aiming to build a community that loves her for who she truly is.

She emphasized the importance of trusting the process and growing. Chen, who has no friends in Paris, expressed her wish for her followers to be part of her journey. Her announcement comes six months after she appeared on the chat show DNA, where she discussed the challenges of growing up as a celebrity's child.
