Actress Angela Tong (湯盈盈) gives birth to two daughters for her husband, Chin Ka Lok (錢嘉樂) and it is a blissful family of four. Their eldest daughter, Alyssa has inherit her daddy's strongest gene and her face features resemble him totally. A few days ago, Angela and the grandmother bring her to co-curricular activity.

Around 1.30pm on that day, Angela drives to fetch her mother and Alyssa and she parks her car at one side. Angela begins to chat on her mobile and it appears that she is reporting to Ka Lok and telling her daughter to get off from the car. Alyssa has a hairstyle resembling a mushroom and her round face makes her look very cute.

Other than the appearance, Alyssa is as lively and active as her father. As she keeps running, Angela has to chase after her and hold her hands to walk into the nearby school.

Angela Tong (湯盈盈) was promoting the sitcom, Come Home Love: Dinner at 8 (愛．回家之八時入席) and expressed her husband, Chin Ka Lok (錢嘉樂) will be working overseas during Mid-Autumn Festival. Hence, Angela and her 2 daughters were planning to celebrate it with Timmy Hung (洪天明) and his 2 sons and Annie Man (文頌嫻): "23 September is my younger daughter's birthday and my hubby may not be there. But we will cut cake and take photos every month in order to see the changes so it does not matter."

Angela added she had yet to slim down after giving birth to second daughter and decided to do couple training with Ka Lok last week, but was given the 'cold shoulder' instead. She said: "He said my leg was not stretched high but we can communicate through exercises. I need to reduce another 10 pound and dare not seduce my husband despite my daughter is already 1 year old. But he loves me no matter who I am."

Artiste Chin Ka Lok (錢嘉樂) and his wife, Angela Tong (湯盈盈), attended the movie premiere, Break up 100 and Ka Lok was the guest actor in the movie.

When mentioned about the report discussed about their daughter, Alyssa Chin (錢凱晴), and made Angela to shout, Angela denied immediately and said: "Many SMS to console me but I have no idea about this but will not feel unhappy despite knowing it." Ka Lok also stressed he did not feel unhappy and said: "I do not mind and everyone has their own views in terms of appearance. I will be dashing if it is me." Angela immediately added: "Thus I love my daughter very much."

Knows how to give his love to the loved ones

Ka Lok empahasised that it was hard to influence a person's thinking and he felt that his daughter was a happy and healthy kid, and will be contented if she was happy. He said: "We see each other frequently with our daughter around. I am not worried about her appearance and she will share her toys and food with other children in Play Group. She has a good and unselfish character which resembles me." Ka Lok expressed that his daughter was 16 months old and had no plans for her to enter into entertainment industry, and said :"Alyssa's results do not matter and most importantly, she must enjoy her life and treat her loved ones good."

Last October, Artiste Angela Tong (湯盈盈) and Chin Ka Lok's (錢嘉樂) daughter, Alyssa (錢凱晴) was born. A blink of the eyes and their daughter was already 1 year old. On Weibo (微博), Angela uploaded a photo of her daughter celebrating her birthday and Alyssa laughed at her birthday cake until her eyes became very small and ate the chocolate. Looking at the photo, she appeared to be very interested in the food.

Watching her daughter got older by one year. Angela said "Our lovely daughter, Happy Birthday! Happy Baby, Happy Family, Happy Frenz, HAPPY 1st BIRTHDAY!!!"

Nancy Sit, Angela Tong, Joyce Tang (Ah Tang), Pierre Ngo and Evergreen Mak took part in a promotional event for TVB series Queen Divas. The cast were on an open-roof bus touring the city and gave out lucky red envelopes to the citizens. When asked where they'll be celebrating the new year? Newly wed Ah Tang expressed she'll be traveling over the new year, but denied she's "hiding" from the new year. She said: "I'll be back on the 3rd day of CNY! You think I won't have to give out red envelopes?! (Give bigger ones?) Well yes, but just the envelope will be bigger!"

As for Angela, she expressed she will be bringing her daughter with her to send new year greetings. "This morning, I was trying to teach her how to put her hands together to say happy new year, but she didn't pay attention. She was so stuck on watching TV. (Get all the money back from the red envelopes others give?) I give out a lot myself too." Also, Angela expressed her husband Chin Ka Lok watched her new series and when he saw the scene where she kissed Pierre Ngo, he appeared a little upset and playfully slapped her arm. Angela smiled sweetly: "I didn't think he would get jealous!"

On March 10th at 12pm, Angela Tong went into labor at the Canossa Hospital (Caritas), and gave birth to the 7 pounds, 3 ounces baby girl Alyssa via natural delivery. Baby Alyssa has lots of hair and looks very cute. Yesterday Angela and her husband Chin Ka Lok shared the good news. Angela's recovery after the natural delivery is going very smoothly, she looked well spirited, but she still has a bulging belly. As the couple left the hospital, Chin Ka Lok gave Angela kisses several times and disclosed they already hired someone to help with "sitting the month" (postpartum confinement month). Angela's going to be on break and focus entirely on being a mother and she'll be breast feeding as well.

Chin Ka Lok revealed his wife was expected to due on March 17th, but her water broke on the 10th, so she was sent to the hospital at 7am and gave birth to Alyssa in the afternoon. Chin Ka Lok expressed he didn't plan to go into the delivery room, but the moment he wanted to fulfill his childhood dream of just waiting outside the delivery room, the nurse was already rushing him into the room to accompany Angela. Because of that, he was able to witness the most important moment. He described the moment as if he was shooting an action movie, he was like the action director trying to tell his wife to breathe. He said: "I think she used her strength in the wrong area, she put it all on her face. I taught her to breathe like she's pooping. The nurse asked me to be more direct, but I personally wanted to hold back and have a little imagination."

When the couple heard the sound of their daughter's cry, they were moved to tears. Chin Ka Lok said: "My wife was crying like a faucet and I was like a small fountain. Luckily I went into the delivery room, the entire situation was so subtle, miraculous, really amazing, incredible and wonderful. I really cherish the moment." Chin Ka Lok expressed he initially refused to cut the umbilical cord because he was worried he wouldn't do a good job and cause his daughter's belly button to look ugly. In the end, the doctor asked him if he's just afraid of blood? He said: "I thought to myself, I'm used to filming action movies, how could I be afraid! At first, I thought it was just one cut, but turns out you have to make a few determined cuts. I'm very happy, can't believe Chin Ka Lok can become a father. I just feel like I'm dreaming." Angela exposed: "Him?! He immediately took out a camera and asked me to take pictures for him!"

Angela revealed she was in pain for 2 hours during labor, but Ka Lok said: "At the time, she was so confused. She asked me if she'll be able to do it. I said the same thing I said to Nicholas Tse, when he had to jump from the 8th floor during the filming of The Viral Factor, I said to him: 'Don't think you can't do it, you have to think about how to do it.'" When asked who he thinks his daughter resembles more, mother or father? Chin Ka Lok laughed: "The nurse said she looks more like me. I immediately thought of Bonnie (one of the contestants on Bride Wannabes), of course its better to look like mom! The grandparents thought she looks like me too. My daughter's eyes are very wide, her big eyes must look like her mom." He joked he's considering naming his daughter "Chin Ching", but ultimately his father will have to make modifications. The couple loves children, therefore after Angela's recovery, they plan to have more children. Chin Ka Lok said: "I hope to get a little brother for Alyssa!"

Lately there has been good news in the industry one after another. Following the marriages of Alex To, RubberBand's lead vocalist "Number 6", TVB artist Cheung Wing Hong, Kenneth Fok and Guo jingjing, yesterday it was 47 year old Chin Kar Lok's turn to marry his 37 year old girlfriend Angela Tong, who is currently 5 months pregnant with a "snake baby". Kar Lok and Angela have been dating for 5 years and are finally tying the knot. The couple chose to hold their wedding at Ocean Park, where the national treasure, giant panda, witnessed their marriage.

Angela and Kar Lok had a simple wedding ceremony with their parents, good friends, the groomsmen and bridesmaids witnessing their marriage. The groomsmen included Timmy Hung, Wilson Chin, Wong Cho Lam and Joe Tay; the bridesmaids were Toby Leung, Margaret Chung and Annie Man.

To avoid disturbing the giant panda, the wedding was kept quiet the entire time, but that didn't stop the newly weds from sparking love. The two were kissing nonstop and when Angela declared her love for Kar Lok, she became emotional and teared up. When the newly weds and their guests were having dinner, the giant panda was curious and "attended" the wedding himself.

Angela had on a 2 karat diamond ring, valued at several HK$100,000, which was given to her by Kar Lok and a sponsored wedding ring, valued at several HK$10,000. During the interview, Kar Lok expressed he was very nervous, but once he finished saying his wedding vows, he said he was flawless and made no mistakes or had any 'lazy sounds'. He was just like a 'fast version King Sir', who spoke clearly without an accent. He joked: "The only English words I know is, 'I do'." Angela stuttered while she said her wedding vows, but she blamed Kar Lok for it. She said she had to accommodate Kar Lok and use Chinese to say her wedding vow. Kar Lok comforted his wife and said a family should be relaxed and comfortable, don't have to be perfect.

The couple will be holding their wedding banquet tomorrow (11/15th) and share another good news with their guests. Kar Lok said: "Angela wants our guests to guess if the baby is a boy or a girl. The person who guesses correctly will win two business class tickets to Thailand. When the time comes, if its a strawberry cake then the baby is a girl and if its a chocolate cake, then its a boy." When asked if they named their baby yet? Kar Lok laughed: "We thought about naming him/her Chin Jeun Jeun. It wouldn't make sense for us to name the baby 'Chin Sai' (past life) or 'Chin Chat', right?"

Soon-to-be-groom Chin Kar Lok recorded the final episode of All Star World Exam with the other guests Nancy Sit, Sharon Chan and Linda Chung. He reveals he hopes to win on this game show, so he could get the air tickets for his trip around the world honeymoon with Angela Tong. He hopes everyone would let him win this. Nancy joked "I know what to do" and recommended herself to be the nanny, so she could go with them on their trip around the world and help babysit. Chin Kar Lok laughed: "Just for 'Nanny Nancy', I don't mind paying out of pocket for another ticket." With everyone's help, he was able to become the big winner of the night, with HK$22,000 prize money and two business class air tickets valued HK$16,000. Chin Kar Lok expressed the next time Angela goes for her ultrasounds, she will find out if the baby is a boy or a girl, "But she said she won't tell me."

Director Cheung Wing Ho publicly apologized to Jenny Lau, and accepted a warning letter from TVB. Chin Kar Lok supported this outcome: "I don't hope to see hostility amongst colleagues. These things are not good things for the entertainment industry as a whole. Should we be fighting and scolding one another every day?"

Although last time Linda won in the game, her father didn't believe her. She said: "Dad said he's already old and still haven't had the chance to go on a trip around the world, which has given me a lot of pressure. If I don't win, I will just have to pitch from my own wallet to treat him on a trip to Europe."

Yesterday Chin Kar Lok, Liza Wang, Eliza Sam, Him Law and Mandy Wong attended a promotional event for TVB series Divas In Distress. Soon to be father, Chin Kar Lok, showed off his fatherly love by sticking with his on-screen son the entire time. When asked if he treated himself like a father? He said: "Of course!" He expressed although he doesn't know whether his unborn baby is a boy or a girl yet, he already seen the ultrasound pictures: "It's quite interesting, saw the hands and feet moving. The doctor said the baby is very active. (Already booked a bed space?) Should go smoothly, the doctor Angela Tong sees handles it all in one package. The doctor said she is expected to due mid-March."

As for the new generation 'Home Boys/Girls' Goddess, Eliza Sam, she thanked everyone's support. She was worried her poor Cantonese and constant NG would affect the shooting progress, so she had to memorize her lines before going to bed. When asked whether 'Ah Jeh' Liza Wang scolded her on the the set? She said: I think if you're willing to ask Ah Jeh, she's more than willing to teach you. Ah Jeh's requirement is that you must be on time. There is nothing wrong with that, it's very reasonable." She also expressed she has been receiving more jobs now, and her facial slimming commercial is coming out next week. Gigi Wong was rumored on bad terms with Ah Jeh, but she didn't attend the promotion yesterday, Ah Jeh expressed they have never been on bad terms. Gigi is currently in Canada, so she can't make it to this promotional event.

Him and Mandy reveals they're going to have a bed scene later in the series, but Mandy said it's going to be a funny one audience of all ages will like to watch. When asked of the scale of the bed scene? Him joked: "Breaks the world's boundary." Asked if they'll have any clothes on? Mandy said its very special, then Him added: "Very special because we'll have clothes on!" As Him and Mandy think of each other as a guy and girl respectively, were there any embarrassments during the shoot? Him said: "Nope, not at all. I thought I was shooting... oh can't say the name right?

Angela Tong and Chin Kar Lok are planning to have their wedding in November. Yesterday they went for a pregnancy check up and had happiness written all over. Yesterday Chin Kar Lok expressed: "Just writing up the guest list is exhausting. If we miss just one person, we're gonna die miserbly!" As Kar Lok and Angela decided to tie the knot in Thailand, they were invited by the Thailand tourism to have their wedding and honeymoon there. The couple plan to go on a trip to Thailand with Eric Tsang and their good friends before the wedding.

Also, when the pregnant Angela finishes all her series, she will be going on a business trip to Mainland for a day and then go on maternity leave. She exposed: "I did one falling down scene, at the time I asked the director if I could use a stunts double, but he didn't know what was happening, so he rejected me. Actually, the cast and crew really do look after me." Angela reveals her wedding dress won't be a conservative one because she wants to show off her body and expressed she's letting good friend Toby Leung handle her wedding planning.

Yesterday Chin Kar Lok, Liza Wang and King Sir attended the promotional event for TVB new series Divas in Distress. When Kar Lok introduced his character, he suddenly shouts: "I'm a father! But I'm just talking about the series. As for real life, I'll talk about it later!" The cast were all very happy for him and congratulated him. Kar Lok played happily with the children at the promotion, seems like he's preparing himself well for the future.

Chin Kar Lok reveals the wedding banquet is planned for November with 50 tables, but he and Angela Tong gave up on getting married on a small island: "It's not convenient. Just want the two of us have an explanation to parents and elders, so having the wedding in November is pretty rushed. (Why is it so rushed?) I want to get marry this year. After going to the hospital and seeing the report, I knew we couldn't wait any longer." As for Angela's pregnancy, Kar Lok smiled: "talk about it later." He refused to admit, looks like it's really not pass the 3 month sensitive period yet. "I don't want to lie, just wait until things mature first. I will definitely let you all know!"

When speaking of Angela shooting new series Cousin, You Are Good, she will have scenes where she gets pushed down? Kar Lok expressed: "I'll be her stunt double then, our body figures are just about the same anyway and I'm a martial artist. (She's going to Guangzhou for outdoor shooting?) If I go to Guangzhou, then there is something to worry about, but if she goes, no problem. She hasn't reported to me on what type of shooting she's doing, but I believe her co-stars Roger Kwok and Bob Lam will take good care of her. (Bob was spotted smoking near Angela?) I don't know if that is true. They are all good people, I'm not worried."

37 year old Angela Tong and 47 year old Chin Kar Lok have been in a four year relationship. Yesterday the couple announced the double happiness, they are planning to get married at the end of the year and Angela is pregnant. However because Angela hasn't past the 3 month sensitive period, she cannot announce the pregnancy yet.

Angela and Kar Lok's relationship started in 2008. At the time, Angela was spotted sleeping over at Kar Lok's house, but they refused to admit to the relationship. Over the years, it has been rumored they broke up and it wasn't until early this year that the relationship was finally made public. Earlier this April, Kar Lok expressed he plans to marry Angela next year, but it turns out he already had a marriage proposal idea. Yesterday Kar Lok was rehearsing for Ekin Cheng's concert, and personally admitted that he is going to marry Angela at the end of the year. He also implied she's pregnant. Kar Lok reveals two or three months ago, when the couple were on vacation in Samui (Thailand), he proposed to her and it was a success. He joked: "Success is Samui, failure is also Samui."

Kar Lok expressed he didn't have a ring for the proposal, but just as long as its romantic, that's all that matters. He hopes to step into a new stage in life with Angela. When asked if Angela was touched to tears? He said: "She didn't have tears flowing out, but did get teary eyes. Never had such a feeling before. (Did Angela agree immediately?) She had to digest first!" Standing besides Kar Lok was producer Wilson Chin, he teased: "Did Angela vomit her meal back up?" Kar Lok was asked if he kissed Angela after the proposal? He laughed: "Wait until we sign the papers (marriage certificate) because that time was natural, a natural delivery."

Ekin didn't mind that he lost to Kar Lok in getting married, and will allow him to announce the good news at the end of his concert. Jerry Lamb teased Kar Lok, the reason he wanted to get married that fast was because Angela's pregnant, so he's forced to do it. Kar Lok smiled: "Good brother. If I can say it, then I will announce this good news." When asked if Angela is really pregnant? Is it going to be double happiness? Kar Lok remained secretive: "After all, when the time comes, I'll announce."

Preparing for Wedding Banquet

Kar Lok is currently busy preparing for the wedding to happen later this year, when asked where the wedding will be held? He said: "Initially I wanted to wait for Eric Tsang's 60th birthday next year and travel the world, but we have to have an explanation in many aspects, so we'll be holding a banquet in HK, which is currently giving me a headache. Eric was laughing happily when he found out that I'm getting married."

Yesterday Angela appeared at TVB City for the shooting of new series Cousin, You Are Good. She had a long scarf on to hide her stomach. When asked if she's pregnant, that's why they're so rushed to get married before the year ends? She initially said: "I don't know. I'll say it when its convenient." Then she added: "I can't say it yet." Angela expressed she loves children.

I'm Finally Mrs. Chin!

When speaking of Chin Kar Lok's proposal in Samui? Angela expressed it was very romantic: "I think when two people are together, the thoughts and direction must be the same." When asked if she agreed immediately? Angela smiled: "I thought about it for a moment, but I did agree instantly. I was very happy. He said such sweet words to me." Angela initially wanted to do a joint celebration with Eric Tsang's 60th birthday next year, but she and Kar Lok decided to get engaged first. The wedding date has not been set yet. Asekd if she'll stop working after marriage? Angela expressed she loves her work and she's getting happier and happier the more she works. When everyone congratulated the new Mrs. Chin, she smiled happily: "Yes, it's finally true!"

Charmaine Sheh Last to Be Married

Angela's good sisters, such as Charmaine Sheh, Annie Man, Toby Leung and Sherming Yiu were all surprised about Angela's marriage news. Charmaine laughed: "You wouldn't believe this. We have a chatroom on weibo, and we're constantly telling Angela to get on, but she never responds. We were yelling so much and even told her that she must be mentally prepared to get played to the max by us on her wedding day. (When will it be your turn?) I'll appear in the finale, everyone wish me good luck."

Chin Kar Lok (Lok Lok) and Angela Tong (Ying Ying) were 'pushed to the wall' on April Fool's Day. Aside from being rushed into marriage, Ying Ying was half willing and half unwilling to accept the 'official title'. Yesterday morning, Lok Lok and Ying Ying attended a charity event as a couple team, where they were immediately became the center of attention. At first, Ying Ying kept her distance from her boyfriend and wouldn't link arms with him. Lok Lok was actually quite a gentleman: "She's shy, but still respect reporters' request. (You rarely go out to events with your 'wife'?) Not wife, I'm not married, just a girlfriend. Not so fast, I want to save it until the marriage proposal. (Will there be a wedding banquet?) Initially I did think about it, but Timmy [Hung] scared me. He said there's a lot of people waiting to play us, why would I be that foolish? (So no wedding banquet?) No, its fun getting played, but she (Angela) should think about what she's done to people in usual days." Angela immediately felt the love when she heard Lok Lok had intentions to propose to her.

Angela Tong was recording for TVB new game show Matching Game (登登登對) (TN: Official English Title TBA) hosted by Margie Tsang and Bob Lam. As boyfriend Chin Kar Lok formally expressed his commitment for marriage within 3 years, Angela did not quite believe it. She asked if Chin Kar Lok was being real? She guesses he's just joking. When asked if they had plans for marriage yet? Angela laughed: "You all are taking this 'rice' for me to go 'spit' at. (You mean you'll do a 'spit rice response and agree to marry?) Wait until we save enough social relationships first, recently there has been many people getting married. Have to wait for the right time first. (Has Chin Kar Lok proposed yet) Of course not, if so then I would have already said it. I hope to have a romantic proposal, and not done through the media."

Angela knows Timmy Hung and Janet Chow are getting married in March, she heard there are already over 30 in the 'sisters group', so she does not plan to join the group. However, Angela believes Timmy's 'brothers group' does not beat the 'sisters group', just based on the number of people, he already lost.

Since Angela Tong Ying Ying and Chin Ka Lok were rumored to be dating several years ago, the pair have never openly admitted nor denied their relationship. However, the latest rumors claim that due to Ka Lok continually refused to publicly acknowledge the relationship over the last few years, Angela was upset and asked to finally break up.

Angela and Ka Lok remained friends after breaking up. Earlier at Angela’s birthday party, Akina Kong Yan Yin accidentally revealed to the press that Angela and Ka Lok broke-up. This made Angela and Ka Lok embarrassed and may have even affected the trio’s friendship.
