Deng Lifang

Sun Li was born in a certain place in China and grew up in a single-parent family. Her parents divorced early, and she was raised by her mother, Deng Lifang. In 1997, at the age of 15, Sun Li was sent by her mother to join the Shanghai Garrison District Amateur Art Troupe, engaging in artistic work and beginning her acting career. Within her family relationships, her mother played an important role in her upbringing.

Sun Li's experience working in the arts served as the foundation for her subsequent career in the entertainment industry. In March 2016, the renowned Chinese volleyball player Shen Qiong posted a photo on her personal Weibo account showing a picture of her with Sun Li's mother, expressing admiration for her youthful appearance. In the photo, Sun Li's mother has smooth, delicate skin, bright and generous eyes, and it seems that time has not left any obvious traces on her face. Shen Qiong wrote on Weibo: "We felt an instant familiarity; meeting her felt like a reunion too late. Time has not left any marks on Li Ma's face. May youthful beauty, happiness, and joy always accompany you. Wishing Li Ma a joyful holiday from the bottom of my heart."

Sun Li's mother later reposted this Weibo, expressing her gratitude and saying, "You are Shanghai's pride. Wishing you to win the championship again in the new season." This indicates a certain personal relationship between the two. The public also paid attention to and praised Sun Li's mother's appearance, noting her youthful look and reflecting good genetic inheritance.

Details about Sun Li's education or other family information have not been disclosed in available sources. Regarding her career, her experience with the amateur art troupe provided a practical foundation for her later development in the performing arts.
