Thao married Xu Yiyang on the 16th in Sajima, Hainan Province, China. Media outlets said that the wedding was held on the stage of the Milky Way concept under the theme of `The Star of the Ocean' and that 'Luxury Super-luxury Marriage', but the reality was different.
According to local media, including Sohu, Tao prepared luxury cars, 12 wedding dresses, and souvenirs for guests. But 'Star' theme ended with a blue curtain and a few balloons. Animal-shaped plastic stuffed dolls were blown on the lawn, and flower walls made of fake hydrangeas were built. An industry source said "Celebrity weddings in the common mountainside include flower arches and large LED screens. Flower decorations alone cost hundreds of thousands of yuan."
In particular, Tao was controversial by saying that he had a proposal event for Xu Yi, and that Xu Yi had prepared for the wedding, and that "He's also returning the favor." In addition, Tao handed Xu Yi a 500-carat diamond ring at the wedding, which is known to be a fake product made of glass. Ms. Xuyi had no choice but to hold the too big glass ring in her hand without even wearing it on her finger.

The situation afterwards was not good either. The couple's wedding was transformed into a `market for sales.' Chocolate liquor and other items were displayed on shelves with the phrase 'Provide Benefits', and plans to sell individual souvenirs were also announced. It said it would sell posters of Tao and Xu Yi Yang's wedding, several polaroid photos, and photos with autographs in plastic bags for $9.9.
Thao made his debut as an EXO member in 2012, but announced his withdrawal in 2015 and filed an exclusive contract lawsuit against SM Entertainment (SM). However, the court ruled in favor of SM.
Xu Yiyang returned to China after being an SM Rookie of the Year and has been an entertainment member of Long Tao Entertainment, founded by Tao.
The two have been embroiled in rumors of a romantic relationship since 2020, but they have not expressed any particular position. Then, they began an open romantic relationship in July last year, completed marriage registration in December 2024, and became a legal couple.
Since then, Tao has been working as a businessman by entering the construction, restaurant, e-sports, sanitary napkin, etc. based on his father's legacy. However, a foreign substance was detected in a sanitary pad he recently launched, which caused controversy.
