Kim Lim Goes Solo After Three Years of Marriage
After three whirlwind years with Kho Bin Kai, celebrity socialite Kim Lim has decided to call it quits. She spilled the beans in a candid interview with Icon Singapore, revealing that the couple had already been living separately since the end of last year.
The “We’re Better Off” Decision
- Kim, 29, says the marriage had become a dull routine and the sparks had gone out.
- She prefers “letting each other chase freedom” instead of staying in an unhappy union.
- Kho, 30, had been in court last year for helping with remote gambling; he’s on a $25,000 bail while the case hangs.
Mom’s Influence? Not at All
Kim made it clear that her parents’ own split didn’t shape her view on marriage. Instead, she encourages modern girls to put themselves first.
From “Bad Boy” Romance to Baby Bells
Back in 2016, the two met at a Thai temple; Kim was instantly drawn to Kho’s “bad‑boy vibes.” They married in February 2017 and welcomed a baby boy, Kyden, just five months later. The low‑profile wedding sparked a wild rumor: some thought Cristiano Ronaldo was the dad after the football star was seen visiting Kim in the hospital.
Opposites Turned Into Partners
Kim’s always chatty, loves sashimi, and flaunts fashion as an influencer. Kho kept things low‑key, ate only cooked meals, liked simple clothes, and avoided social media.
The Divorce Talk
When Kim broached the subject, Kho quietly accepted it—smooth, right?
New Business Adventures & Hustle
She’s channeling her energy into the beauty sector. Last year, she launched Papilla Haircare; this year saw the opening of her aesthetic centre Illumia Therapeutics. With just 23 staff—many older than her—Kim’s juggling the grind. The only day off? Sundays when the clinics are shut.
Regrets? None
“I only regret not chasing this dream sooner,” she shares. Trust us, the future is looking bright—and a little shiny.
