Andy Lau (劉德華) won the 2011 Golden Horse Best Actor Award due to his performance in A Simple Life <桃姐>. On November 28th in the AM hours, 50-year-old Andy Lau wrote on his blog that he had good news in his family to share with his fans, leading to speculations that his wife, 45-year-old Carol Chu (朱麗倩), was pregnant! Andy said that he hoped to receive the blessing of fans. Since 2009, when Andy and Carol Chu’s marriage came to light after they were spotted holding hands at the airport, the issue of when Carol would become pregnant became the focus of media attention.

Andy personally responded with, “1…0000000000 thanks!” Andy’s personal assistant noted that Andy treated his family affairs in a low profile manner and will no longer respond on the matter.
