Newlyweds Tavia Yeung (楊怡) and Him Law (羅仲謙) have returned to Hong Kong after holding their secret wedding in England last Tuesday. Over 50 reporters from all over the region waited for Him and Tavia to step out of the airport terminal on Sunday, March 27. The couple, now officially husband and wife, greeted the press enthusiastically. During their ten-minute long interview, Him consistently referred to Tavia as “my wife” and even kissed her on the temple upon request by the reporters. Tavia and Him’s Wedding Was a Surprise for Everyone—Even For Their Families Tavia and Him planned their destination wedding in England under the radar—even their families were left out of the loop. “We’ve always wanted to go on a trip with our family,” said Tavia. “Since we were going to such a beautiful place, we might as well use this opportunity to create some perfect memories.” Tavia and Him did not formally send out any wedding invitations before their England trip. “We didn’t tell them anything,” Tavia pointed out. “Not even our closest family. We didn’t tell them the real reason. We just told them that we’re going on a big trip together, and you can come with us if you want to. In the end, some of [Him’s] relatives couldn’t make it.” Tavia and Him exchanged their wedding vows to a small, private audience of less than 20 relatives. On why they decided on Leeds Castle in Kent, Him said he’s always been a fan of classical locations, adding that he wanted Tavia to feel like a princess for her wedding day. The media broke the secret of their wedding when Tavia’s older sister, actress Griselda Yeung (楊卓娜), shared a few pictures of Leeds Castle on social media last week. Tavia said, “We originally planned to tell everyone about [our marriage] after we got back, but everyone found out a bit before we expected.” Tavia received many messages from friends and colleagues after the news broke. “I will be thanking each and every one of them,” she said. Though the planning was done under everyone’s radar, not much effort was taken to pull off the secret wedding. “We were just very low profile,” said Tavia. “Also, we’ve been dating for a few years, so [a wedding] was something that everyone was expecting anyway. It wasn’t anything that was too shocking or unacceptable.” Will Hold Wedding Banquet in HK for Family and Friends Him declined to answer when and where he proposed to Tavia, but his wife said it happened “sometime this year.” Tavia said she was taken completely by surprise when Him popped the question to her, and even cried when he did. “I’d be such a failure if she knew beforehand,” said Him with a laugh. As Tavia’s TVB contract will be ending next month, she was asked if it was likely that she would not renew her contract. She said she is still negotiating with TVB, adding, “I think it is more likely that we will hold a wedding banquet this year!” Him explained, “We will be holding a wedding banquet this year. We’re just not sure when yet.” Asking if Tavia is pregnant, she laughed and said, “Already? I still have a 22-inch waist!” Nonetheless, the couple did hint that a baby may come in the future. “I am not in hurry,” she said. Him replied, “If my wife isn’t a hurry, why would I be?” Tavia added that they have not talked about having children, but will let nature take its course. Creds: ihktv
