(ECNS) -- Gregor Robertson, the 50-year-old Vancouver mayor, who is separated from his wife, is currently dating Chinese pop star Qu Wanting, 32, according to a prominent city blogger.
Robertson served as a senator for Vancouver-Fairview before being elected as Vancouver Mayor in 2008, winning a second term in 2011.
After graduating from Carson Graham Secondary School, Robertson enrolled at the University of British Columbia (UBC), and later transferred to Colorado College, where he got a Bachelor of Arts in English and biology.
One of his forebears is Dr. Norman Bethune, a noted anti-fascist doctor famous for his impact on Sino-Canadian relations.
Robertson had an interest in agriculture, and took up farming in the Cariboo and Fort Langley areas of British Columbia, Canada.
He went on to co-found Happy Planet, a Vancouver-based company that produces organic fruit beverages.
So far, no comment is available from the singer, and her assistant responded that they are just good friends.
