Edison Chen Checked Into Rehab

Posted on February 23, 2008 at 8:39 pm (PST)

While Edison Chen was hiding from his naughty picture scandal in the United States, he was very busy. First Edison went to Boston, where his girlfriend Vincy Yeung is attending a University. Some members of Vincy’s Triad family want Edison dead, but other members are trying to protect Edison, which is another reason he was in Boston. To try to insure his protection from Triad revenge, Edison proposed to Vincy more than four times. Edison also hoped that marriage itself would show that he has changed into a family man, and is no longer a sex maniac womanizer. After discussing the issue of marriage with her family, Vincy turned down Edison’s marriage proposal. Some reports said Edison threatened to slit his wrists if Vincy did not marry him, but those reports have turned out to be false.

Vincy’s family suggested to Edison that he seek treatment for his addiction to sex, so he checked into a rehab center in Utah. After only a few days, several of the other male clients surrounded Edison in a parking lot during a break, and threatened, kicked, and punched him. Edison left immediately after the attack, and traveled to Vancouver, British Columbia to stay with his mother.

Edison then flew to California to meet with movie executives in Hollywood to see about getting work in upcoming movies. During this time Edison started negotiating with police in Hong Kong to avoid prosecution, and for protection, before returning to Hong Kong.

Edison then flew back to Boston to see Vincy one last time before returning to Hong Kong. Vincy was one of the girls who had a large set of pictures in the scandal, but only three of those pictures of Vincy in the shower became public. HG did not post the Vincy pictures, because we weren’t sure of her age at the time of the pictures.
