Personal Life
On November 3, 2017, Xu Bin married Evelyn Wang Yifei in Singapore. They also had two more wedding parties in their hometowns in China. Evelyn Wang Yifei studied at the Beijing Film Academy. Instead of becoming an actress, she decided to help with her family's property business.
Xu Bin and Evelyn met at a friend's party in 2014. Their relationship was kept a secret for a while because Xu Bin's company, NoonTalk Media, had a rule that its artists could not date. This rule was lifted in 2016 for Xu Bin and another actor, Aloysius Pang, because they were considered old enough.
On July 10, 2018, Xu Bin announced that his first child, a son named Ethan Xu, was born. The name Ethan was one of the English names suggested by Aloysius Pang, who was asked to help choose a name for the baby.
