Is William Hung married and does he have kids?

After William Hung’s American Idol audition, the surprise sensation won over fans across the country and the world, turning into a shocking… sex symbol? Maybe it was because of the seductive nature of his audition song (“She Bangs” is pretty blatant, to be sure). Maybe it was because of the innuendo of his last name. Geoff Mayfield, director of charts at Billboard, joked to MTV in 2004 that “the fact that his name is Hung probably helped” his debut album sales. Whatever the case, the pop culture stratosphere capitalized on the singer’s 15 minutes of fame. One company even created a “hunky action figure with a tight black T-shirt and taut arms” modeled after Hung, ABC News reported.

Hung’s appeal certainly paid off in his romantic life. He got hitched in June 2014, marrying Jian Teng at a ceremony in Alhambra, Calif. Teng is a vocational nurse who is the same age as her husband. “She’s a fantastic wife and I’m glad to have somebody to support me,” he told People at the time.
