After gaining weight to 90 kg post-marriage, Huang Zitao still shows off his romance—revealing the reason behind it, only to be teased publicly by a fellow celebrity.

(Beijing, 27th) Huang Zitao, who registered his marriage with Xu Yiyang in 2024 and held a wedding ceremony in October, has often shared sweet moments publicly since tying the knot. Recently, he unexpectedly revealed on the variety show Universe Shimmer: Please Pay Attention that he now weighs 90 kg—sparking lively discussion online. Fellow guest Dylan Wang (Wang Hedi) couldn’t help joking, “Does getting married really lead to ‘happy weight’?”

In the show, Huang was startled awake by a staged “alien raid,” where performers burst into his room and tried to carry him away. Panicking, he struggled free and shouted, “I’m heavier—I’m 90 kg!” prompting laughter and teasing from others about his weight gain. Huang insisted on the spot that he had already lost a bit and “isn’t that fat.”

Later, however, he admitted during a livestream that the main reason for the weight gain is simple: he’s been eating extremely well because his wife’s cooking is too delicious—“too happy,” as he put it. Many viewers said they could relate, calling it a normal “marriage bliss” side effect, and adding that his no-filter reaction on the show only made him more likable.
