TVB Entertainment News

After Steven Cheung’s (張致恒) mega cheating scandal, his public image and work were severely impacted. Even though he publicly apologized to all his ex-girlfriends and his wife, Man Man through Instagram posts, the general public doesn’t seem too keen on his return to the entertainment industry. Even his good friends and once label mates, Charlene Choi, Gillian Chung, and Joey Yung, all unfollowed him on Instagram. It’s reported no one has been reaching out to him for showbiz work. It’s reported he has been working as a chef at a hotel to make ends meet.


It’s said Steven Cheung was introduced by a friend to work as a chef at a buffet restaurant in a hotel on the Hong Kong side. Steven Cheung was spotted doing all kinds of things like chopping up food, cooking noodles, and serving customers. He was wearing glasses and a mouth mask and didn’t seem to be recognized by the patrons. It’s reported Steven Cheung was working for over 10 hours and didn’t get o work until 11 something. When he got o work, he was waiting for the bus.


Even though Steven Cheung is working temporarily as a chef, it’s reported he still has a contract with Shaw Brothers. He hasn’t given up on his entertainment career and has expressed to people in the industry that he wants to film series. He spoke to Oriental Daily News and admitted to working at the hotel. He expressed, “I learned a lot. I put in 10 hours each day, an hour for lunch. He also expressed he will be filming a series in China soon.

Since Hawick Lau (劉愷威) and Yang Mi (杨幂) announced their divorce last year, he has kept a low profile and hasn’t had any dating rumors. The times paparazzi have spotted Hawick Lau was when he was either shopping for his daughter or picking her up from school. Yang Mi, on the other hand, has been involved in dating rumors a few times already.

It looks like it’s Hawick Lau’s turn to get involved in dating rumors. According to Hong Kong news outlet, Next Media, they claim Hawick Lau is secretly dating TVB actress, Roxanne Tong (湯洛雯), 13 years his junior, after being setup by Rosina Lam (林夏薇) at a gathering at her place earlier this year. Next Media says they don’t want to reveal their relationship because his divorce is still fresh and wants to maintain his image.


The reports continue saying Hawick Lau traveled with Roxanne Tong to England and France in May. Rosina Lam and Roxanne Tong became good friends after starring in the series, “Daddy Cool” (逆緣). The reports claim Rosina Lam lent her Victoria Peak mansion for them to use as a love nest and arranged a car to pick them up. Next Media also says Hawick Lau would pick up Roxanne Tong to go on dates in Shenzhen as he is always working in the mainland.

Reading all this already sounds so bizarre. There aren’t any interactions between the two. At Rosina Lam’s birthday gathering in July, Roxanne Tong wasn’t present either. When Sina Entertainment reached out to Hawick Lau’s team about the dating rumors, a staff member expressed, “Fake, completely fabricated.” No word from Roxanne Tong yet, but it probably won’t be needed as this dating rumor is just not plausible.

Back in June, it was rumored Raymond Lam (林峯)had proposed to his model girlfriend, Carina Zhang (張馨月). He never admitted to it and when his cousin, Rosina Lam (林夏薇), was asked about it, she also kept mum and said it was best to ask him. It seems those rumors are true as it’s reported today that Raymond Lam and Carina Zhang had already applied for their marriage license on September 26.

The sharp eyed Hong Kong reporters discovered a “Notice of Intended Marriage” belonging to Raymond Lam and Zhang Xinyue, Carina Zhang’s Chinese name. The listed birthdates show the couple’s 11 year age difference. The place of residence was listed as Pok Fu Lam for both, so it seems Carina Zhang has already moved in with Raymond Lam. It was previously rumored that December 8th, Raymond Lam’s birthday, would be the day of their wedding banquet. However, it turns out to be his fan club party.


Near the end of 2017, Raymond Lam and Karena Ng’s (吳千語) relationship was said to be on the rocks. Later on, it was rumored Raymond Lam’s father arranged a matchmaking date between him and Carina Zhang. Then in March 2018, it was rumored Raymond Lam and Carina Zhang were getting to know each other. Shortly after, Raymond Lam had admitted him and Karena Ng had broke up for some time already.

Raymond Lam kept his relationship with Carina Zhang very private, a contrast from Karena Ng. Even though he would bring Carina Zhang to dinners with friends and industry colleagues, they never post pictures of just them two on social media. Things started getting serious when Carina Zhang brought Raymond Lam to her brother’s wedding in China last September. Then in January, Raymond Lam brought Carina Zhang back to his ancestral home in Xiamen to pay his respects to his ancestors and see his elders.

Lately there have been viral rumors over TVB actress, Ali Lee (李佳芯), being frozen by the company. It’s reportedly due to her past social media posts about the current political situation in Hong Kong. Netizens accused of her of being a “Hong Kong independence” supporter based on her past activity on social media, which has resulted in a lot of mainland Chinese netizens chastising and threatening to boycott her. Ali Lee had already clarified her stance on Weibo and IG saying, “Any allegations regarding to “Hong Kong independence”, these words have never appeared in my brain or mind before. Never before and definitely not now.” There were netizens who came out to support her after she made the post.


As it seemed things settled down after Ali Lee’s clarification, there are now rumors stating TVB has temporarily taken her series with Wayne Lai (黎耀祥) and Moses Chan (陳豪), “Death By Zero” (殺手), o the schedule. On the temporary suspension of their series, Wayne Lai expresses he doesn’t know when the series will air, just that the licensing rights were sold to a Chinese streaming service and will air at the same time.


There are also rumors Ali Lee will be replaced in “Who Wants A Baby? 2” (BB來了2) and “Legal Mavericks 2” (踩過界2) with a new character and storyline. Ali Lee’s co-star in “Who Wants A Baby? 2”, Lokyi Lai (黎諾懿) expressed, “Because both series have scheduling conflicts, filming is postponed to next February.” As for whether Ali Lee’s character is being replaced, Lokyi Lai expresses he hasn’t heard about it.


On the rumors of her being frozen, Ali Lee responded to Oriental Daily News saying she heard about the schedule changes, but isn’t sure why they’re being postponed and whether there will be a change in characters. She expresses, “From what you’re saying, that means I am being frozen. But I am still filming “Amelia’s Rhapsody” (愛美麗狂想曲) right now. If I was really frozen, I wouldn’t be filming right now. I don’t think it’s the case. It can be that we filmed a series and it won’t air.” When asked if this was related to her earlier social media posts, she said, “I don’t think so because I didn’t get into any yelling matches with anyone.” Ali Lee also expressed she can’t think too much about this and will focus on work. She also says she can’t control how the company will handle it, but knows they have a plan and will respect their decisions.

TVB artist, Moon Lau (劉佩玥), was filming for variety show Liza’s Online (娛樂大家) today and was asked about her long time rumored boyfriend, Adrien Chau (周志文). The two have been rumored to be
dating for a while, but the two are always teasing the public when it comes to defining their relationship. The dating rumors reached a whole new level last year when they were suspected to be kissing while on
a boating excursion during a live stream. Moon Lau later denied it and said it was due to the angle.


Even after those rumors, Moon Lau and Adrian Chau didn’t avoid each other. Moon Lau even uploaded a video of her and Adrian Chau singing “A Whole New World” on her Youtube channel a few days ago. Many netizens seem to think this move was laying the groundwork for them to disclose their relationship.

When asked about this Moon Lau responded, “I don’t have any relationship to disclose. It’s just that I showed this clip. We filmed the video a while ago. Because I started to uploaded these clips, netizens said they want to hear me sing, so I chose this clip.” On their duet melting hearts and whether they plan
on dating, Moon Lau laughed and said, “When Bob Cheung (張彥博) and I sang previously, they also said I had hearts in my eyes. The most important thing is to have that emotion. If I were to admit to it, there is no need to lay the groundwork, just saying it will do. I read comments saying we match and were able to sing with those emotions. I am very happy.”

When asked about their chances at developing further, Moon Lau said, “I wouldn’t say there are no opportunities. He is a very good guy. Being rumored with him for so long is a happy thing because there won’t be different partners rotating to be rumored with. We’ll have to deal with it later. I am focus on work right now.”

Hong Kong actress, Toby Leung (梁靖琪), got married a second time to her non-celebrity husband, Jonathan, back in June. At the time of the wedding, Toby Leung had revealed she and her husband hopes to have two children. Lately, there have been pregnancy rumors circulating around Toby Leung. It’s reported Toby Leung is already four months pregnant. Sources say Toby Leung has lessened the frequency of working out to nurse her pregnancy and has been traveling with her family.

When Oriental Daily News reached out to Toby Leung to comment on the pregnancy rumors, she said, “Who told you? I will alert you once I have good news.” (There are reports that you are already 4-5 months pregnant?) “There is such a rumor? Once I have good news, I will announce it!” However, when Toby Leung’s father was asked about his daughter’s pregnancy, he admitted to it and said, “Yes.” Toby Leung’s good friend, Angela Tong (湯盈盈), said, “Wait for her to announce the happy news. Give her
some time.”

TVB actor Joel Chan (陳山聰), is getting married to his non-industry girlfriend, Apple, on November 1st.
The two will be getting married at the W Hotel in Hong Kong. Joel Chan was married once before and had
a high profile relationship with Macau heiress, Florinda Ho (何超雲), which didn’t end up so well as he
nearly jeopardized his career while he was dating her. He met Apple, who is in the beauty industry,
shortly afterwards and helped him get out of his darkest times.

Apple is said to be Joel Chan’s lucky charm. After getting the Best Supporting Actor award in 2017, he ascended into leading male status in upcoming series “Golden Building” (金宵大廈) and “”Big Step Forward” (大步走)(temporary name). According to close friends, Apple is refined and gentle, a contrast from Joel Chan’s personality. Apple would even cook vegetarian meals for Joel Chan and prepare lunch boxes for him to eat while filming. Joel Chan is even posting baby pictures on social media and already has a few god children. It’s reported he once told a friend he wanted children. Joel Chan’s romantic history was quite vivid. In 2010, he was rumored to be dating a designer, (楊渡萍),
who is 12 years his senior. They were dating for over 10 years already and looked to be headed towards marriage. However, in 2011, he was rumored to be dating Stanley Ho’s (何鴻燊) third wife’s daughter, Florinda Ho. They both denied it. During this time, it was also revealed Ponny and Joel Chan were married in 2008. After this, Joel Chan admitted to the marriage and that him and Ponny had already gotten divorced at the end of 2010. He emphasized the divorce wasn’t due to a third party.

Florinda Ho and Joel Chan announced their relationship in August 2011 after uploading a picture with him and her family. The two were seen traveling to the UK together and would even be shown at family events with Florinda Ho’s family. The relationship lasted until 2013. Joel Chan even went to London to reconcile with Florinda Ho, but she refused. Aer a year of breaking up with Florinda Ho, he met Apple. Good friend, Christine Ng (伍詠薇), gives Apple 100 points. She says, “She is really proper and generous.
She takes care of Joel really well. Even though Joel has a slight temper, he still really dotes on Apple.” Christine Ng also reveals Joel Chan really likes children. Sharon Chan (陳敏之) said, “I want them to have kids sooner. Joel is always visiting my son. He really likes kids. He seems to like girls. He’s not young anymore. If he stalls any longer, I’m afraid he won’t have the energy.”

Chinese actress, Zheng Shuang (郑爽), is celebrating her 10th year anniversary in the industry this year. She also turned 28 on August 22nd. To commemorate both events, she held a birthday party with her fans on her birthday. Many of her celebrity friends sent their birthday greetings in a prerecorded video. However, fans in the audience were particularly happy when her “Love O2O” (微微一笑很倾城) co-star, Yang Yang (杨洋), appeared on screen. When the birthday greeting video was playing, everyone in the audience started screaming once Yang Yang appeared. The reason is because the two paired up in the 2016 hit series, “Love O2O.” Once the show aired, ratings, word of mouth, and reviews were all good. The series got so popularity, it even got licensed to Netflix, where it also garnered a big international fanbase. Many fans started shipping Zheng Shuang and Yang Yang in real life due to their chemistry. However, Zheng Shuang is already dating someone, while Yang Yang has been rumored to be dating Bridgette Qiao Xin on two occasions.

Even so, fans were still happy to see Zheng Shuang and Yang Yang “reunite” aer three years. Despite the two not having much interactions normally, fans still rewatch the series to reminisce “Xiao Nai” and “Bei Weiwei”s love story. In Yang Yang’s birthday message to Zheng Shuang, he said: “This year is your first time holding a birthday party in the 10 years you’ve debuted. Hope you can leave unforgettable memories. I heard you will be performing today. I am looking forward to it very much. Wishing your birthday party will be held successfully. “Bei Weiwei”, happy birthday!” All the “QingCheng CP” fans rejoiced aer watching his message.

Another former Miss Hong Kong has good news to share. The 2005 Miss Hong Kong winner, Tracy Ip (葉翠翠), announced she is pregnant with her third child today. The 37 year old mom got married in 2015 with husband, Raymond, and have two sons. In her post, she said: “We didn’t plan to have another one. Maybe it’s heaven thinking our home is not lively enough.” She also replied to netizens saying she tested it four times and couldn’t believe it.

Tracy Ip told Apple Daily HK, “I really didn’t plan on having a third one. After having my second child, we thought about it. But it’s been really tough taking care of my youngest son these past few years. So we already nixed the idea.” They don’t know the sex of the baby yet.

When asked about her husband’s reaction, she said, “After having the second baby, I said I wanted to have a third one, but my husband rejected the idea at the time. He said it will be very tough so he convinced me not to have another child. After confirming the pregnancy this time, I told him about it and oddly, he was very happy about it.”

Hong Kong actor, Terence Yin (尹子維), has been focusing his career in China the past few years. He was dating Chinese actress, Xu Dongdong (徐冬冬), in an on and off relationship, lasting for almost a year. The two were even engaged in April after Terence Yin hid the ring in a boiling hotpot. However, Xu Dongdong announced today they had separated in a Weibo post, saying: “We split up, but he is still my best friend. All the best.” Terence Yin responded to the post saying: “Maybe being friends right now is the best. Always support you.”

Their relationship started around November 2018 when Xu Dongdong announced she was dating, but didn’t reveal her partner. She only said her partner is someone that has “thoughts” and would also cook for her. It wasn’t until January of this year that Terence Yin admitted to being Xu Dongdong’s boyfriend. They were seen at the airport together and even let reporters take their pictures. The two worked together on the 2017 film, “Love Contractually” (合约男女). They were also caught traveling together in 2016 by Hong Kong paparazzi. However, it’s unknown if they had started dating then.

After announcing their relationship less than 4 months in, a netizen reported seeing the two of them having a fight outside a convenience store. Terence Yin was screaming while Xu Dongdong was crying, sitting by a flower bed. It’s reported Terence Yin ignored her. In the end, Xu Dongdong was said to have left by herself.

All seemed fine as they attended a function together in July. Xu Dongdong even praised Terence Yin, saying, “He is truly a kind person to the bone. He is not someone who just pretends to be kind. His kindness isn’t just temporary. The longer I get to know him, the more I get to feel [his kindness].” What’s odder is the picture Xu Dongdong uploaded with the break up post was from a blessing ceremony on August 9 for a new film they are working on. It’ll be awkward if the two are portraying a couple.

The 2012 Miss Hong Kong Second Runner Up, Tracy Chu (朱千雪), announced last month, she was getting married to her childhood sweetheart and doctor boyfriend, Justin (吳昆倫), of five years. Earlier this month, Tracy Chu and Justin tied the knot in Bali. She had six bridesmaids: Jennifer Shum (岑杏賢), Sandy Lau (劉倩婷), Kayi Cheung (張嘉兒), Roxanne Tong (湯洛雯), Crystal Li (李雪瑩), and Angel Chiang (蔣家旻). The couple got married at a glass church with 80 of their family and friends present. Jennifer Shum was the lucky one who caught the bouquet.

Angel Chiang spoke to the media about the wedding. She said, “Tracy didn’t cry at first. When she saw us, she was so touched, she looked like she wanted to cry. This is the first time I’ve seen her like this. Her husband didn’t cry either. All of us are happy for them. When Tracy’s dad accompanied her to the church, plus the music, I couldn’t hold it in and started crying. All of us girls were pretty emotional, but calmed down immediately.” As for Roxanne Tong, she said, “Watching them proceed with the ceremony and recite their vows, plus the venue and everything else, I felt like it was a fairy tale.” Kayi Cheung also wished them a happy marriage.

During the banquet at night, Tracy Chu thanked their friends and family from the US, Canada, Singapore, and Hong Kong for attending their wedding. She also thanked both sides’ parents, especially the two mothers for keeping in contact after giving birth. They would hold a birthday party for a few of the babies who were also born with them, allowing the two of them to stay in contact all these years and become friends. Justin’s mother also concocted a special tea leaf flavor as party favors for their guests.

It was earlier reported Justin was working in Singapore and there were reports that Tracy Chu would be moving there after the wedding. However, they’ve said they will make arrangements after finishing up their work and studies. Justin will be returning to Singapore first, while Tracy Chu will be focusing on the last year of law school.

Tracy Chu was also seen at Happy Valley today. It’s reported the couple are having another banquet at a private member’s club primarily for Justin’s side of the family.

Rising TVB actor, Owen Cheung (張振朗), is being heavily promoted by TVB. He starred in several series that were scheduled to air this year. There were two series, “The Offliners” (堅離地愛堅離地) and “Finding Her Voice” (牛下女高音), where Owen Cheung was the male lead and also starred Jacqueline Wong (黃心穎). Due to the “OnSum Cheating” scandal, both series were taken off the schedule and probably won’t air. He also had a third series, “Airport Security Unit” (機場特警), that was also taken off the schedule due to the recent political events in Hong Kong.

Owen Cheung was on a radio show “Circles” (1圈圈 星光背後) recently and was asked about the two series being taken off the schedule due to Jacqueline Wong’s scandal. He expressed, “The initial reaction was very unhappy, but I very quickly released the tension. I never harbored any blame towards Jacqueline Wong because we have always been friends. So saying I cursed at the studio at that time, but we had already finished filming at the studio already. We went to film on location already and I’ve never did anything like that.”

Since entering the business, Owen Cheung has been rumored with plenty of actresses, including Nancy Wu (胡定欣), Katy Kung (龔嘉欣), Jeannie CHan (陳瀅), and Apple Chan (陳芷尤). However, Owen Cheung clarified he had only dated one person from the industry. His ex-girlfriend is fellow TVB actress, Apple Chan. The two announced their break up in April. They first started dating secretly, making everyone think they were only dating for three years. However, Owen Cheung clarified they actually dated for five years. He explained the reason for the break up, “Maybe everyone’s goals changed. She went to develop her career in Singapore and I am in Hong Kong. Maybe our targets changed, so that’s why we broke up.”

He only started dating his current girlfriend, ViuTV actress, Renci Yeung (楊思泳), a year after breaking up with Apple Chan. Owen Cheung mentioned it took him almost a year to heal his wounds. He was very unhappy and hurt after the break up. When asked how he met Renci Yeung, he said, “Friends gathering, we met and talked for a bit and that’s how we got to know each other.”

When the radio host, Terry Leung (梁泰來), mentioned Owen Cheung is always dating girls with nice bodies, he laughed and said, “It’s just a coincidence. It’s just based on what’s pleasant to the eye. I like [girls] with big eyes, pointy face, cute, and petite.” Aside from appearances, Owen Cheung also admires Renci Yeung’s character. He explains, “Considerate and her character is pretty good. I love my family very much. She treats my family pretty well. I admire her for this. She also likes to act and we discuss about it happily. Being an actor is tough so having a partner by your side to let everything out is already good enough.” When asked if she is a stable partner, Owen Cheung said, “It’s hard to say about long term, but at this very moment, I am pretty happy.”

Chinese actor, William Feng Shaofeng (冯绍峰), hasn’t been in the news ever since wife and actress, Zanilia Zhao Liying, gave birth to their son in March. Zanilia Zhao Liying (赵丽颖) is set to make her comeback later this month. However, William Feng Shaofeng was suddenly accused of having extramarital affairs. A female netizen had uploaded a series of texts that alleges William Feng Shaofeng had trysts with her and other women while he had a break from filming.

A series of text messages between the female and her friend talking about someone suspected to be William Feng Shaofeng have been going viral. This female explains to her friend: “He said to me he is a person who especially likes freedom. He said it was difficult for him after getting married. He didn’t feel free. Once I think about him meeting with other girls in Beijing, I get irritated.”

While the text messages don’t explicitly mention any names, there were two that hinted at William Feng Shaofeng and Zanilia Zhao Liying: “fsf gave me a really expensive present. What should I give back to him?” “Is Zhao Liying (赵丽音) coming to Chengdu?” In the second text message, the friend used “Yin” (音) that sounds like Zhao Liying’s middle name, “Ying” (颖).

The person who uploaded the text messages deleted them later on, but also explained “fsf” meant “courier services” (发顺丰). Netizens got even more suspicious at her explanation. One netizen said, “I believe in this rumor. Feng Shaofeng has always been a player. He didn’t look like he really wanted to get married. Why wouldn’t Zhao Liying admit she was pregnant? Maybe she was giving herself a back up plan because she wasn’t sure they weren’t getting married. If they didn’t end up getting married, she could abort it and act like nothing ever happened?”

Now that Li Xian (李现) has cemented his place as a male god in the Chinese entertainment industry, everyone has been dying to know his ideal type and the qualities he looks for in a girlfriend. In a previous interview, he mentioned he doesn’t have one and that it depends on fate when meeting the right person. However, in the latest interview, the hosts asks him a series of questions to reveal the type of girls he might be interested in, but he is too nice and gives very neutral answers. It looks like everyone has a chance at being “Xian’s girlfriend”*. He also fails to mention a special someone when asked who is his female goddess.

Host: Smart and gentle or cheerful and active?
Li Xian: Both would be the best
Host: Older or younger?
Li Xian: Don’t mind
Host: Long hair or short hair?
Li Xian: Both are acceptable
Host: Face or legs?
Li Xian: Both are good
Host: Hot pants or mini skirts?
Li Xian: It depends on what the girl likes, yes. 
Host: Who is the female goddess in your mind? 
Li Xian: It’s the same as everyone because of dramas or movies that you like someone. For example, Scarlett Johansson, Rachael McAdams, Emma Stone, I like them all. 
Host: Shouldn’t you mention Yang Zi at this point?
Li Xian: Very sorry! Let’s ask the question again! Ask it again, very sorry!
Host: Who is the female goddess in your mind? 

Li Xian: Of course it’s Teacher Yang Zi, right?

Ever since three more girls came out claiming to be victims of Steven Cheung’s (張致恒) cheating, there have been reports that he owes them money. There were reports Steven Cheung turned to Kenny Kwan (關智斌) and Yumiko Cheng (鄭希怡) to borrow $100,000 HKD to repay his ex-girlfriends. In addition, it’s reported he has already filmed a video apologizing to Kenny Kwan, his management company, Shaw Brothers, and admit fault to all the girls he has hurt.

Apple Daily HK reached out to two of the girls that came forward, Ms. S and Ms. C, who claim Steven Cheung owed them money. They have reported Steven Cheung has already repaid and apologized to them yesterday. Steven Cheung had once borrowed $3,000 HKD from Ms. C and owed Ms. S over $2,000 HKD. However, the largest creditor is April Leung (梁皓恩), who shared a rental apartment with him in Wan Chai. The rent was around $15,000 HKD a month, but it’s said April Leung was the one who paid the rent most of the time. It’s reported April Leung has already given him a last ultimatum and is requiring him to repay her $100,000 HKD by July 30.

Kenny Kwan relayed his message through his manager, Mani Fok (霍汶希), saying: “He said, “We’ve been brothers for so many years, we don’t really calculate that much. I don’t really remember.”” As for Yumiko Cheng, she admits to lending money to Steven Cheung. She responded, “We’ve known each other for so long. We won’t consider that much. I hope he quickly handles everything.” It’s said Steven Cheung has revealed to his friends that he hopes to change, cultivate himself, take care of his baby, and live a peaceful lifestyle with his new family.

TVB artist, Sarah Song (宋熙年), announced her departure from TVB after being with the company for 12 years on Instagram today. She’s originally from Sydney, Australia, but has called Hong Kong home after winning the crown at the 2007 Miss Chinese International Pageant. After joining TVB, she did mostly hosting shows, like “Scoop” (東張西望), “Dolce Vita” (港生活·港享受), and MC jobs. Her contract was up recently and she took the plunge to test the market, like her husband, Jason Chan (陳智燊), who left TVB last year. Sarah Song and Jason Chan also have a thriving Youtube channel.

Ever since the “OnSum Cheating” scandal was came to light in April, Kenneth Ma’s (馬國明) love life is always the center of attention in his interviews. The media has always been pressing him to speak on his current relationship status with Jacqueline Wong (黃心穎). While he has avoided addressing the topic, it’s pretty clear they are no longer together. Kenneth Ma finally addresses it in a recent exclusive interview with Oriental Daily News.

When speaking with Oriental Daily News about Jacqueline Wong, Kenneth Ma says, “I can only say we are still friends no matter what. We are still friends. There’s no need not to be friends. I think everyone’s reaction to this incident is a bit overzealous. These are still relationship matters after all. It’s hard to say who is right or wrong in a relationship. There’s no need to have such a big reaction from everyone. No need to attack her. In fact, she knows she’s wrong. Who hasn’t done wrong before?” (Do you forgive her?) “I’ve said it before. I was mad, but only for a very short time. Afterwards, I was more worried. I hope everyone won’t have such a big reaction anymore. Actually, you can give her another chance.”

Helping her to make a comeback?
Reporters then ask Kenneth Ma if he was trying to help her make a come back, he responded, “It’s not helping. It’s just everyone has been overreacting to this incident. I can continue being friends with her, why is everyone reacting so strongly? Everyone is still yelling at her. I’ve already responded before. She still has a really long road to walk.”
Reporters try to ask if he has returned to being a single bachelor again, he says, “It doesn’t matter. I’m not talking about it. I just hope this situation quickly settles down. It’s already been so long, we don’t need to socialize these matters again.” When asked if he had seen or contacted Jacqueline Wong, he responded, “Not talking about it. I’m not responding to any of it. If I respond to it, more questions will arise. Actually, I do know where she is right now. It was reported she went elsewhere for school.” On whether Jacqueline Wong still has girlfriend status, he said, “Not responding. I don’t know why everyone needs to draw the line so strongly. I really don’t have much to respond.” Kenneth Ma is then asked if Jacqueline Wong wanted to get back together, he said, “Not answering. These are hypothetical questions.”

Someone must really want Louis Koo (古天樂) and Jessica Hsuan (宣萱) to be together because this is the second time they have been rumored to be together in two months. Only this time, the rumor reaches further to say Louis Koo and Jessica Hsuan are getting married this year!

Back in June, a rumor was started by a netizen stating Louis Koo and Jessica Hsuan were dating. This led to Louis Koo trending on Weibo. However, the two never addressed the rumors and the dust finally settled. A few days ago, a viral rumor was circulating on Weibo stating a “Hong Media media outlet” reported Louis Koo and Jessica Hsuan were getting married this year. This supposed “Hong Kong media outlet” also said Louis Koo’s recent purchase of a yacht was to be filial for his parents, but also to be used for his wedding this year with Jessica Hsuan.

The “proof” of them dating includes a gif of Louis Koo whispering into Jessica Hsuan’s ear at a dinner celebration with a whole bunch of cast and crew members from last year. Jessica Hsuan even posted a picture of that night on her Instagram.

TVB actress, Alice Chan (陳煒), has been single for 7 years ever since divorcing her Taiwanese husband. However, it seems the 45 year old actress has finally found a new romance. Apple Daily HK reports they received a tip and pictures from a reader showing pictures of Alice Chan with her new doctor beau at a medical seminar in Bali, Indonesia last week. Alice Chan was seen holding hands with her 6 feet tall doctor boyfriend around the hotel.

It’s reported Alice Chan was by her boyfriend’s side during the entire seminar, which lasted from July 5 – July 7. When her boyfriend was speaking, Alice Chan was seen taking pictures of him on stage. Once the session was over, Alice Chan was also seen taking pictures on stage. When almost everyone had left, they were still holding hands and taking pictures on stage.

Alice Chan’s doctor boyfriend is called Dr. Aldous Chan (陳國強). He is around 40 years old and is also said to be a divorcee. He had actually opened a medical beauty center with actor, Ben Wong (黃智賢), and another doctor last June. Alice Chan was also present on the day of the opening. Ben Wong and Alice Chan have been friends for years and he was actually the one who introduced them together. However, he doesn’t dare take credit for their romance. Fellow TVB actress, Elena Kong, also knows Dr. Chan and is her primary care doctor. She says, “He is very thoughtful and patient. He is a very good person. When he’s with Alice, he is very gentle and soft spoken. The both of them are a great match!”

Cheronna (吳嘉熙) and Aka (趙慧珊), members of Hong Kong girl group, Super Girls, attended an event today to promote recycling. While talking about how Cheronna and her boyfriend met, the reporters started to ask about Aka’s love life as she is single. When talking about Aka’s ideal type, Cheronna revealed, “She likes really good guys. If there are suitors, I’d help her filter them out first. There are some not suitable for her.” Reporters asked Aka what qualities she looked for in a spouse. She said, I like those who are filial and looks after the family. I think those like Kenneth Ma (馬國明) are good, but unfortunately we’re not filming together, so there’s no way.” The reporters get really excited at her answers. Aka then asks, “Did I go too far with the joke?” Cheronna then says, “You don’t need to film in order to get to know him!”

A reporter then excitedly suggests Aka to film a MV with Kenneth Ma since he was busy filming Kayee Tam’s (譚嘉儀) music video lately. Aka agrees and said they must consider this for their next MV, if Kenneth Ma is willing. Cheronna and the reporters said there’s no need to consider, but Aka says Kenneth Ma needs to consider it. Aka then reiterates she’s just joking. Then one of the reporters mentions there is a 13 year age gap between Aka (b. 1987) and Kenneth Ma (b. 1974). Aka then explains, “If I am really dating, whether it’s someone younger or older, it’s not a problem. But I am really joking, don’t take it out of context.”

When a reporter asks what type of man she’s looking for physically, she admits Kenneth Ma is also her type and even admits he is her idol.

Lately there have been rumors saying Mat Yeung (楊明) moved into his girlfriend, Lisa Ch’ng’s (莊思明) mansion, accusing him of being a kept man. Lisa Ch’ng is a Malaysian Chinese. It’s said someone in her family has “Datuk” status, an honorific title usually bestowed to prominent male figures and men who contributed something of value to society. Lisa Ch’ng clarified the rumors in a lengthy IG post today.

“A lot of people think I live a good life without worries, but how many people really know me and my lifestyle?

If I told everyone that money doesn’t just appear in my hands, that I need to earn money myself, how many people would believe me?
I know I am pretty fortunate because I have a place to live, so I am very thankful. But I also need to work hard to make money to support my day to day needs and also reduce the burden on my family. I am not a person who doesn’t need to work or worry, like what everyone says.
Frankly speaking, I wish I was!

However, everyone can continue misunderstanding me. I don’t really care, because sine day 1 of stepping into the industry, everyone looks at me this way.

The thing I mind the most is people saying Mat Yeung is a kept man (“eating soft rice”: 食軟飯)!
I already kept my mouth shut for a long time. I thought time would prove everything, but a lot of people won’t face the truth.
I can be very certain and tell everyone that Mat Yeung has never used a penny of mine. It’s actually the opposite. When I buy clothes, shoes, or go to the supermarket for everyday goods, Mat Yeung pays for everything. Because he told me it’s a man’s responsibility to take care of his other half.

It’s time for the Chinese internet to explode again as Fan Bingbing (范冰冰) and Li Chen (李晨) have announced their break up on June 27. Chinese netizens were just recovering from Song Joong Ki and Song Hye Kyo’s divorce news earlier today and now they have to endure another breakup of China’s once beloved celebrity couple.

Fan Bingbing announced the news on Weibo around 8:24 PM (local China time) saying:

“There might be a few types of farewell you experience in a lifetime. During our encounter, the love and warmth we harvested has turned into eternal energy. Thankful for what you’ve always given to me all along, support and love. Thankful for the care and love that will continue in the future. We are no longer us. We are still us.”

Li Chen immediately replied to her post saying:

“From friends to lovers, back to being friends. The way we express our feelings will change, but the purest feelings between you and I won’t change. The trust and support we have for each other is eternal. We are no longer us. We are still us.”

The two announced they were dating on May 20, 2015. Li Chen proposed to Fan Bingbing on her birthday party in 2017. They had originally planned to get married in a lavish wedding during the second half of 2018. However, because of Fan Bingbing’s tax evasion scandal in May 2018, all those plans were put on hold. It wasn’t until September 2018 that Fan Bingbing admitted to the scandal. Throughout her tax evasion scandal, Li Chen had remained quiet, probably due to the circumstances. There were even rumors of break up until a close friend of theirs debunked the rumor and said the two had celebrated her birthday last year. It wasn’t until October 2018 when Fan Bingbing was “freed” that Li Chen publicly made a statement saying, “No matter how hard, we will go through the hardships together.”

The news has come as a shock as there were reports of Li Chen and Fan Bingbing out and about. During this year’ Lunar New Year, Li Chen was even seen picking up Fan Bingbing’s younger brother, Fan Chengcheng, from the Beijing airport. Li Chen was also present at the opening ceremony of Fan Bingbing’s new beauty salon back in March. Who would’ve thought this relationship would take such a different turn in a matter of 3 months.

Following Song Joong Ki’s announcement that he has filed for a divorce, Song Hye Kyo has released a statement through her agency.

On June 27, Song Joong Ki’s attorney stated that the actor had taken his first steps in filing for a divorce from wife Song Hye Kyo. The actor also released an official statement apologizing to his fans and explaining that he hoped for an amicable divorce.

Shortly afterwards, Song Hye Kyo’s agency United Artists Agency (UAA) Korea responded to the news on behalf of the actress.

A representative of the agency stated, “We find it unfortunate that we are greeting you with unhappy news. After careful consideration, actress Song Hye Kyo and her husband are taking the first steps toward a divorce.”

“The reason [for the divorce] is differences in personality,” continued the agency, “and because the two were unable to overcome their differences, they were forced to come to this decision. We respectfully ask for your understanding in regards to the fact that we cannot confirm any further details out of respect for the two actors’ personal lives. Additionally, we urge you to refrain from making scandalous posts and speculative comments.”

On June 27, actor Song Joong Ki's legal representative revealed in an official statement to the press, "On June 26, we filed a request for divorce on behalf of Song Joong Ki with Seoul's family court."

In addition, Song Joong Ki relayed through his legal rep, "First, I want to deliver my apologies to many of you who love and cherish me, for such unfortunate news. I have decided to move forward in a divorce with Song Hye Kyo. Rather than lengthening the process by considering each other's faults and deriding each other, I hope to complete the divorce amicably. I ask for your understanding in the fact that it is difficult to reveal the specific details of our personal lives, and I promise to overcome these damages and do my best as an actor in my production roles from now on."

Meanwhile, the Song Joong Ki-Song Hye Kyo couple married back on October 31, 2017.

Chinese artist, Han Geng (韩庚), who got his start as a K-Pop idol as a member of Super Junior, announced he was dating Hong Kong actress, Celina Jade (盧靖姍), on his 34th birthday last year. It all started when Han Geng wrote a Weibo post on February 9, tagging Celina Jade, with the caption: “Hello, 34 years old. Hello, my girl @CelinaJade. Celina Jade responded to the post with a similar caption: “Hello, my boy @HanGeng.”

According to Apple Daily, they discovered an application for marriage registration in Hong Kong under Han Geng and Celina Jade’s names today. The marriage certificate was dated June 17th. Even though the occupation is not listed for either of them, the birthdate listed under the male is the same as Han Geng’s, February 9, 1984, while the female’s is listed as June 10, 1985, same as Celina Jade’s. As for the address, they reported Chaoyang District in Beijing. Celina Jade had posted on February 7, 2018, “Beijing, my new home.”

When Sina Ent contacted them for a response, their team members said, “If there is good news, they will share it at once with everyone.”

The marriage rumors already started on June 14th, when it was discovered Celina Jade had originally posted a picture with a ring on her ring finger. She later edited the post with the same picture, but with the ring photoshopped away. In February of this year, Celina Jade celebrated Han Geng’s birthday with his mom present as well.

Director, Roy Chow (周顯揚), who worked with Han Geng on the film, “Knockout”, revealed to Apple Daily today, “I am happy for them. I already received their wedding invitation earlier on. I will be attending their wedding. Han Geng and I are good brothers. I witnessed them dating. When they were dating, Celina would often visit us. Seeing him get married, I am very happy for my brother.”

How They Met
Celina Jade, legally known as Celina Jade Horan, was born to a Chinese mother and an American father. The 34 year old actress can speak fluent English, Cantonese, and Mandarin, due to her upbringing. Celina Jade got her big break in 2017’s Chinese blockbuster hit, “Wolf Warrior 2” (戰狼II), starring Wu Jing (吳京), as Dr. Rachel Smith in the highest grossing Chinese movie ever. Before landing a role in “Wolf Warrior 2, she also guest starred in a few episodes of American TV show, “Arrow”, as Shado. With the success of “Wolf Warrior 2,” she shifted her sights from Hollywood to Chollywood.

The two were actually presenters at the 2017 Golden Rooster Awards (金雞獎). It’s reported Celina Jade piqued an interest in Han Geng when he helped her down the stairs when they were presenting. She was so touched by the gesture, she tagged him on Weibo saying: “Thank you (formal use of you) for helping me down the stairs. Didn’t get a chance to say bye bye before. Very happy to meet you! Good show! Looking forward to hearing you sing your theme song.”

Hong Kong actress Christy Chung cried in the rain after an argument with her Chinese actor-singer husband Shawn Zhang, China Press reported.

The celebrity couple recently took part in a Chinese reality show, My Dearest Ladies, where the couple and his mother took a vacation together.

The couple had been spotted arguing in several episodes of the show and in the latest episode, Chung was seen sobbing in the rain as Zhang and her did not see eye to eye when they went shopping.

The couple were travelling in Spain and Chung asked for Zhang's opinion when she wanted to buy some vegetables and socks.

Zhang was unhappy as he thought that Chung did not take his suggestion into consideration.

Chung realised the change in Zhang and asked for the reason behind his sudden mood swings.

Zhang lashed out at Chung and said, "You always have ways to say that I am wrong", "I do not dare to annoy you" and "Whatever I say will backfire".

It ended up with a heated argument where Chung cried in the rain, claiming that she was also very tired.

It looks like viewers may still get to see Jacqueline Wong on the small screen after all.

The TVB actress was caught in a cheating scandal with singer Andy Hui in April and several television shows involving her have since been affected.

The Offliners was one of the first TV shows to be canned, while Forensic Heroes 4 was reshot to remove scenes with Wong, with her role in the TV drama being replaced by actress Roxanne Tong.

Finding Her Voice, where Wong has a leading role, was also scheduled to be reshot, with actress Kaman Kong one of the candidates to replace her in the TV serial.

However, TV producer Wong Wai Sing has since confirmed with the Hong Kong media that the reshooting would not take place.

He explained to Ming Pao Daily News on Sunday (June 23) that removing all the scenes with actress Wong would mean reshooting the entire 30 episodes.

He said that other factors were considered before the decision was taken not to reshoot the TV serial. They included some of the locations used for filming being unavailable, such as a hotel used in the shooting being renovated for a few months.

He added that it was almost impossible to accommodate the different schedules of the actors in a short span of time and fit them in the more than one month set aside for the reshooting.

The highly anticipated series, “Forensic Heroes IV” (法證先鋒IV) had a press conference yesterday to promote the reshooting process due to the “OnSum Cheating” scandal. While Jacqueline Wong’s scenes are being shot with her replacement, Roxanne Tong (湯洛雯), producer, Miu Siu Ching (梅小青), expressed, “We immediately edited the script because different actors will have different portrayals. Also, there might be some scenes we can’t capture anymore. There are some scenes where we can do better as well.”

The series was originally promoted as one of this year’s TVB anniversary series, but has been postponed because of the reshoots. Miu Siu Ching shared, “We were originally classified as an anniversary series, but we need to have it approved by the Chinese film administration. We are filming in June/July and need to allow time for editing, so on principle, the series won’t be airing this year. Mr. To hopes the series will air early next year.”

Roxanne Tong also shared with the press that she had already alerted Jacqueline Wong beforehand. She said, “I sent her a text previously so she has a heads up. I don’t want to comment too much about this. She needs some privacy too, so I don’t have much to comment on this.”

Raymond Wong Clears the Air
Raymond Wong also cleared the air about the earlier rumors about him cursing and getting mad after finding out about the reshoots. He explained, “This time is the real response. I didn’t purposely respond previously because the involved parties were already affected. It’s not convenient for me to say too much. My family and I also went on vacation. When I found out about the news, what I was most worried about was not myself, but the actual “Forensic Heroes” team, worried about whether the series will air or not.”

When asked if he had cursed, Raymond Wong responded, “Why would I curse? To who? With the bathroom? I was really worried. At the time, I did send a text to Sister Siu Ching (Miu Siu Ching) asking her if I could help.” (Are you mad at Jacqueline?) “There is nothing to be mad at. We are not in contact.” (Not mad or can’t be mad?) “We are not mad. We are outsiders, won’t respond on it. What I am most worried about is whether the series will be able to air or not. It’s not suitable for me to comment. We are friends so it’s definitely not suitable to comment. It’s just a pity because everyone’s hard efforts are going to waste.”

The Elaine Yiu (姚子羚) scandal keeps getting interesting as a person claiming to be the friend of Raymond Young’s (楊偉文) alleged “mistress” leaked five snippets of phone conversations that she claims are between Elaine Yiu and her friend. This person, who is being referred to as “Miss A”, also provided additional private pictures of Raymond Young and Elaine Yiu from their trip to Bangkok to Apple Daily HK.

A few of the pictures show Elaine Yiu and Raymond Young clothed in bed with Elaine Yiu looking at the camera. Miss A claims, “The pictures are geotagged. The date, time, and location are listed on top of the pictures. It was last October in Bangkok. How would she (Elaine Yiu) not know about taking pictures in bed with him?”

Miss A also alleges Elaine Yiu had always knew Raymond Young wanted to get back with Sarika Choy (蔡宛珊). In order to do that, she was willing to work with the mistress to force Raymond Young to sign the divorce papers as soon as possible. Miss A says, “She (Elaine Yiu) was willing to be the second mistress. Raymond had actually initiated breaking up a few times, but she wanted to win and beat out the mistress.” These accusations are quite far fetched.

In the clips where someone sounding like Elaine Yiu is allegedly saying the following things:

Listen to the clips and decide for yourself: https://hk.entertainment.appledaily.com/enews/realtime/article/20190531/59641232

“If he was more mature in his thinking, your wife wouldn’t leave you. This isn’t the first time I’ve said this to him. I said I finally understand why your wife left you.”

“He would definitely not tell me that his wife left him because he’s flirting with girls. He has said Sarika was not happy because he didn’t have time to spend with her since he works at the club from day to night while she’s waiting for him to come back at night. He said how does he have time. She knows I have to work, but she feels that it was better when he had no money, but more time.”

“In the end, I busted him. I told him I had a friend who knew his wife and that I had a friend on IG who saw your wife and a picture of you. He couldn’t deny it because I had previously asked him several times. I said I I will ask you one more time. Did you go see your wife? He was denying it completely.”

“No, we were going back to his place. He suddenly stopped the car saying he might have saw you waiting downstairs. I said, really, I don’t see it. I think he was full of it. He was waiting for me to retreat so that I wouldn’t go up to his place. Of course I wouldn’t fall for it. I purposely went up to his place.”

Sarika Choy spoke with hk01.com and declined to comment about her ex-husband’s romantic life and whether their divorce was over third parties. However, she did say that the decision to divorce wasn’t just over one thing and wasn’t made lightly. When asked if she found any traces of his wrongdoing before they separated, Sarika Choy explains, “Before we separated, I don’t think he committed any devious behavior with women behind my back. As to the authenticity of those recordings? I think they should be real because it’s already leaked. It’s also her voice. That’s all I can say.”

Taiwanese pop diva, Jolin Tsai (蔡依林), and her model boyfriend, Vivian Dawson (錦榮), broke up three years ago. Their relationship was always plagued with ill-will from the public due to Jolin Tsai being more successful and older than Vivian Dawson. While it was an amicable break up, the two didn’t have much public interaction with each other until last year when Vivian Dawson wished Jolin Tsai a happy birthday on Instagram.

It was reported 4 months after the break up, Vivian Dawson was often seen with fellow Japanese-Brazilian mixed model, Akemi. The two were always seen hanging out, riding bikes, eating with friends, and going to the gym together. To top it off, they’re always posting pictures and videos of each other and their time together on Instagram. However, the two always denied dating and claimed to be good friends only. Vivian Dawson was asked if there was a chance for him and Akemi to become boyfriend-girlfriend status. At the time, he responded, “This is something I don’t know.” Perhaps that relationship has elevated as the two were caught kissing by Taiwanese paparazzi today!

Vivian Dawson’s manager responded to the report saying, “Vivian is practically busy filming in China, but next month, he will return to Taiwan to host variety show, “Prince’s Moving Castle 3” (王子的移動城堡3). We don’t talk about relationships in private because Vivian values his privacy. Why don’t you guys ask them when you see them again, see how they respond. Akemi’s manager responded, “I can’t find Akemi. I don’t know her response and the company doesn’t oversee artists’ private life.”

Elaine Yiu (姚子羚) addressed the media today on her current scandal that was initially reporting her to be in a relationship with a married man, Raymond Young, and befriending his wife, Sarika Choy (蔡宛珊). In addition to the initial news report, a series of intimate pictures between Elaine Yiu and Raymond Young were released to the public. She addresses all the rumors and clarifies what really happened.

Apple Daily HK is at it again as they received a tip from a “Mr. L”, who alleges TVB actress, Elaine Yiu (姚子羚), has been secretly dating her boyfriend, Raymond Young, one of the directors at the Dragon-I nightclub, for 8 months. The 38 year old actress was dating Bong Cheng (鄭子邦) until their break up in March 2018 (Read about their relationship here.) Why is this a scandal? Because it seems Raymond Young is a married man, who allegedly has another mistress, so Elaine Yiu is being painted as the 4th person/2nd mistress in this relationship! In addition, intimate pictures of the couple were released by a whistleblower!

According to Mr. L, Raymond Young and his wife, Sarika Choy (蔡宛珊), have been married for 8 years. Sarika Choy is a Chinese-Indian mix. She entered the business as a model in 2001 at 18 years old. The 34 year old model once filmed a beer commercial with Stephen Chow (周星馳) and is currently an artist under Bob Lam’s (林盛斌) company. She is currently doing a lot of MC work, as shown in her IG.

Raymond Young’s alleged “mistress” is not in the industry. Mr. L provided several intimate pictures of Elaine Yiu and Raymond Young, including them in bed, and one of Elaine Yiu with Sarika Choy. It’s said Elaine Yiu is friends with Sarika Choy and are in a group chat together. When Apple Daily HK tried to reach out to Sarika Choy, she texted back saying, “Let me call u later. thank u”

Mr. L tells Apple Daily HK: “They met each other in July, August last year. They already went to Thailand together in October. At the time, the female was filming TVB series, “Of Greed And Ants” (黃金有罪). The male also accompanied her. Afterwards, they celebrated Valentine’s Day together. They already have a semi cohabiting relationship. The male also has a mistress. So Elaine Yiu is actually the second mistress. They also have a group chat. The wife and the second mistress (Elaine Yiu) are friends.”

Netizens are now focusing their attention on Elaine Yiu and even leaving her comments such as, “bootleg Jacqueline Wong” or “Jacqueline Wong 2.0.” As a result, she immediately disabled comments on her IG.

Good friend, Selena Lee (李施嬅) from the “胡說八道” BFF Crew was asked by Apple Daily HK whether she knew Elaine Yiu and Raymond Young were dating. She responded, “It’s better to ask the actual parties themselves. It’s not convenient for me to respond to anything related to this matter. I wasn’t aware of this. I don’t know anything. What’s being reported right now might not even be true. It’s better to ask the actual parties involved.”

Ever since it was announced “Forensic Heroes IV” (法證先鋒IV) was reshooting the scenes with Jacqueline Wong (黃心穎), her replacement has been a topic of discussion. TVB finally announced today they are replacing Jacqueline Wong with her good friend, Roxanne Tong (湯洛雯). She was at TVB today to see producer, Miu Siu Ching (梅小青), and went for a costume fitting. Miu Siu Ching expressed this was a birthday present to Roxanne Tong, who just celebrated her 32nd birthday on May 6th. She also says, “I wanted her to promise me one thing. That is to lose 10 pounds before we start filming on June 1st. She was willing to do it.”

Roxanne Tong was asked if she was afraid of taking Jacqueline Wong’s “leftovers.” She replied, “I am not afraid. I will take all the opportunities the company gives me. Having a good role to act in is already a good thing. I won’t concern myself with these things.” When asked if she is stressing about losing the 10 pounds before filming starts in June, she responds,” There is no stress. My weight is always yoyo-ing. There are times where I am skinny and times where I am heavier. It’s okay to lose weight. I am thinking about controlling my diet, exercising, and getting massages. I can probably come out with a diet book in the future.”

Roxanne Tong also says she is now focused on watching the prior series for research. Most of her scenes will be filmed with Raymond Wong. This is their first collaboration together.

According to exclusive news received by Oriental Daily News, it is reported former TVB actress, Fala Chen (陳法拉), is getting married on May 11th in France, to her French boyfriend, Emmanuel Straschnov, after dating for three years. It is said the wedding will be at a romantic manor in France and only nearest and dearest are invited. The 37 year old actress was previously married in 2013 to Neway heir, Daniel Suek (薛世恒), who is often mistaken for TVB actor, Benjamin Yuen.

Fala Chen took a big risk when she left TVB and her career in Hong Kong in 2014 and went to Juilliard in New York to study acting for four years. Her gamble paid off because she is currently filming an upcoming HBO series , “The Undoing,” with Nicole Kidman and Hugh Grant. In 2016, she met Emmanuel in New York and was said to be love at first sight. Their relationship wasn’t revealed to the public until half a year later. Fala Chen had once said Emmanuel was charming and that their personalities meshed well together. While she might be career oriented, Fala Chen had once mentioned she loves children and has plans to have kids.

As for Emmanuel, he is currently the founder and CEO of a platform called “Bubble.” He has a MBA from Harvard Business School. After graduating, he once worked at the French Consulate in Japan. In 2007, he once worked as a consultant at a company in Shanghai for three years. He later worked in the US as an executive assistant. He has once said he has a deep affinity with Asia because his father was an exchange student in Taiwan during the 70’s. His parents later met each other in Beijing and fell in love.

Congratulations are in order for the 2007 Miss Hong Kong winner, Kayi Cheung (張嘉兒), as she has given birth to a baby girl, Hannah Lau. Kayi Cheung got married in 2015 and had her first child, Leora in 2016. She revealed to Oriental Daily News that Hannah was also a natural birth. Kayi Cheung was in labor for around three hours.

Chinese actor, Yang Yang (楊洋), and Chinese actress, Bridgette Qiao Xin (喬欣), have been in the news the past few days due to rumors of the two dating. This wouldn’t be the first time netizens or the press used “evidence” to prove the two were dating. The first time Yang Yang and Bridgette Qian Xin were rumored to be a couple, dates back to Valentine’s Day of this year. There were alleged reports of Yang Yang and Bridgette Qiao Xin shopping and dining together in London. Coincidentally, Yang Yang had uploaded a picture of him eating at a restaurant in London at the time. However, both parties had denied the rumors with Yang Yang’s manager saying, “There’s no such thing. How can it be? They’ve been classmates for so many years. If something were to happen, it would’ve happened already.”

The rumors ramped up again on May 7th when netizens claimed Bridgette Qiao Xin had used an alias account to like posts regarding Yang Yang. Bridgette Qiao Xin had previously told reporters in an interview that she did have multiple alias accounts. Netizens apparently found one of her accounts that had liked Yang Yang’s posts, but was unliked later on. There was also a post uploaded by Yang Yang, but instead of showing his account name, it was another alias. Fans discovered the account was only following Bridgette Qiao Xin, making them believe this was an alias account of Yang Yang’s. However, Yang Yang addressed the rumors in a comment blaming it on a bug in Weibo.

The dating rumors were spurred on when pictures of Yang Yang and Bridgette Qiao Xin allegedly holding hands at a supermarket surfaced today. Conveniently, the pictures only showed the backs of a couple that netizens believe to be Yang Yang and Bridgette Qiao Xin. Netizens started to compare the clothes in the picture to past pictures of the couple and found similarities. While fans are claiming the female in the pictures are definitely of Bridgette Qiao Xin, many are questioning whether the male is really Yang Yang. Some say he looks more like Bridgette Qiao Xin’s manager. At this time, neither parties have responded to the rumors.
