Lee, 54, hosted a Facebook live stream for two consecutive nights on May 13 and 14, bringing up his beef with Quan, 51, after her daughter Eleanor Lee hogged headlines last week for allegedly making derogatory comments about the people of China.

The 25-year-old China-based Singaporean actress has denied making such remarks, but the incident dealt a major blow to her burgeoning career in the country. Addy Lee then implied that what happened to Eleanor was "karmic retribution".

In his rambling six-hour tirade on May 13, the Malaysia-born personality said he and Quan were "close like family" for over two decades.

However, their relationship soured after she stopped conducting live-stream sales together with him and moved out of his home, where she and her daughter had stayed temporarily for a few months during the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020.
