By SYLVIA LOOI IPOH: After 23 years of keeping their romance under wraps, Hong Kong heartthrob Andy Lau Tak Wah and his Malaysian girlfriend Carol Chu will walk down the aisle next year. The couple, who got to know each other in 1985, has chosen Pulau Redang in Terengganu as the site for their lavish wedding ceremony to avoid the papparazzi. Hong Kong magazine Three Weekly reported that the 47-year-old Lau got the idea of getting married on a faraway resort island from his buddy Tony Leung Chiu Wai, who recently tied the knot with Chinese beauty Carina Lau Kar Ling. The magazine reported that the star had been vehemently denying his relationship with Chu for fear of losing the support of his fans but Chu’s appearance at Lau’s concert early this year had sent the rumour mill into overdrive. Lau also set tongues wagging when he asked his fans if idols could have girlfriends and get married as a way of testing his fans’ response to his marriage plans. Fans responded that he should be open about his love for Chu. Chu’s romance with Lau is believed to have started not long after she was named second runner-up in a beauty contest in 1985. In May this year, he was spotted at the wedding ceremony of Chu’s sister in Kuala Lumpur. When contacted by press, his former girlfriend Yu Ke Xin said: “I am very happy for him. It is time he settled down.” source: http://www.star-ecentral.com/news/story.asp?file=/2008/12/7/music/2744726&sec=music
If this rumour's true, then good for him. it's about time he married his girlfriend if they've been together for over 20 years. i think the public's more open about their idols being married/dating now.
LOL...yeah im sure some girls are gonna go emo now...hahaha anyways, if i were that chick id be like given up hope a long long time ago....dating for 23 years lol.... thats pretty crazy imagine if they end up like gettin divorced after 1 year...god...hahaha
if this is true, its gonna break the hearts of many ppl out there. she is one lucky girl but she waited 23 years
23 years?? man thatz pretty much married.. juz unofficially and wat abt that crazy chick whoz full in love with him... from memory it was some Chinese girl and her parents sold all their assets juz so that the daughter can meet up with Andy... any news?
oh wow.. i wonder if it's true.. regardless he deserves to marry someone he loves and have it out in the open.. no need to hide it and he's already such a huge star.. that he can't lose any fans just by publicly announcing his girlfriend or marriage
