Angelababy (English name: Angela; birth name: Yang Ying) is a Chinese model, actress, and singer born in Shanghai to a Shanghainese mother and a father from Hong Kong, who is of half German and half Chinese descent. She is one of the "New Four Dan Actresses". Her father runs a fashion business in Shanghai. She gained an interest in fashion as a child under her father's influence.

Angelababy moved to Hong Kong when she was thirteen, and signed a modelling contract with Style International Management at the age of 14. She speaks English, Mandarin, Shanghainese, Japanese, and Cantonese.

Angelababy dated Chinese actor Huang Xiao Ming, who is 11 years her senior, for six years, but their relationship was not revealed to the public until February 2014. On 27 May 2015, they obtained their marriage certificate in Qingdao, China, and their wedding banquet took place in Shanghai on 8 October 2015.
