"Originally, we got married, then lived in Singapore, and then it ended for Duo MAIA. After that, I divorced and returned to Indonesia to work again," said Mey Chan in the Mampang area, South Jakarta, on November 24, 2022, as quoted by Intipseleb.

Mey Chan mentioned that her desire to go to Indonesia was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic that started to spread. After the pandemic started to subside, she decided to pursue her career again in her homeland.

"Previously, I was called Mey Chan, then Dita Anggraini, so I decided to use the name Dita Mey Chan. So, whether people call me Dita or Mey Chan, it's okay," she explained.

"(The reason for changing the name) is because my mom passed away at that time. So, I wanted to use the name given by my parents, Dita Anggraini, but Luna Maya said that people only know me as Mey Chan, she said, you can't use the name Dita, people will be confused. Who is Dita? So, it's better to stick with the name Mey Chan, so I decided to use the name Dita Mey Chan," concluded Dita Mey Chan.
