Liu Jiao and a bunch of her music-loving peers were "heartbroken" at the news that Chinese pop icon Jay Chou got married in Britain on Saturday.

"Our Prince Charming finally became the husband of another woman," Liu, a 29-year-old Beijing resident, said jokingly.

Chou married Hannah Quinlivan, a 21-year-old actress and model from Taiwan, at a Christian church in Yorkshire. The two had been romantically involved for four years.
