6-7-2023 (HONG KONG) The funeral for beloved pop icon CoCo Lee, who tragically passed away at the age of 48, will be conducted in accordance with Buddhist rituals, while a special memorial event will be organized to pay tribute to her devoted fans, whom she held dear throughout her life.
Prior to her untimely demise, Lee had prepared a will that left all her belongings to her beloved mother, emphasizing the deep bond they shared.
In line with Lee’s wishes, her family has decided to hold a farewell event for her fans, recognizing the immense importance she placed on them during her illustrious career.
Lee was renowned for treating her fans as an extension of her family, consistently demonstrating her gratitude and making personal connections with them. She often credited her fans with providing the inspiration and support that fueled her passion throughout her remarkable three-decade-long musical journey.
Reports indicate that Lee had been living apart from her billionaire husband, Bruce Rockowitz, for over a year prior to her passing. Although Rockowitz was out of the country when Lee was hospitalized, he promptly returned to Hong Kong upon receiving the devastating news.
Further details regarding the funeral arrangements and memorial event have not been disclosed, as Lee’s family has requested privacy during this challenging time to mourn their loss and plan a befitting tribute to the legendary singer’s legacy and stature.
CoCo Lee and Bruce Rockowitz had been married for more than a decade, but rumors of their separation began circulating in mid-2020.
The couple tied the knot in a lavish ceremony in 2011 after a six-year engagement. However, signs of trouble in their marriage surfaced in July 2020 when Lee posted cryptic messages on social media about having the courage to mend a broken spirit, accompanied by a link to relationship counseling.
In January 2021, Coco did not appear to celebrate her birthday with Bruce, intensifying speculation about their relationship status. When questioned about the state of their marriage, Coco’s sister and manager provided a vague response that only fueled the rumors.
While the couple successfully maintained privacy regarding their personal lives over the years, clues and reports in mid-2020 hinted at underlying marital issues. Coco’s enigmatic social media posts suggested emotional struggles and the need for healing. Additionally, her absence from birthday celebrations with Bruce hinted at a lack of closeness and intimacy between them.
Despite these signs, neither Coco nor Bruce publicly confirmed their separation during her lifetime.
