According to Mingpao News, previously, Hong Kong tabloids reported that Joyce had a breakdown trying to balance her hectic schedule – filming TVB's "Romanic Repertoire" and simultaneously managing her Cantonese opera troupe.
The tabloid also published a photo of the actress looking haggard while rehearsing her script on set to prove that Joyce was indeed stressed out by her job.
In response to the reports, Joyce, who attended a press conference announcing her upcoming musical play, "Scars of the Sea" recently, stated, "It's all fabricated. That day, my assistant was reading the script with me, but her face was cropped from the photo. At the time, my waist was in pain, so that's why I was the way I looked."
"But if that's how they want to portray me, there is nothing that I can do," said the actress.
When asked if she was indeed stressed out with work, Joyce replied, "Of course I am, but that's because I am passionate about my work!"
In regard to rumours saying that Joyce has been having trouble managing her troupe's finances, Joyce said, "The way the article is written is as if the writer is sleeping under my bed every night. I won't say much about it because it's a private issue. All I can say is that I have hired a professional to look over the troupe's finances."
