HONG KONG - FORMER TVB star Gigi Lai has confirmed her marriage to Hong Kong businessman Patrick Ma.
Gigi Lai, 38, and disabled millionaire Patrick Ma, 52, were reportedly planning a wedding scheduled for February 22 in Sydney, Australia. But the low-key couple canceled the ceremony after paparazzi discovered their plan. They registered their marriage and had a simple celebration before the Chinese New Year.
Media reports say Hong Kong actress Gigi Lai Chi will marry a 52-year-old millionaire next month, following her abrupt retreat from showbiz in late October.
A report published on Sina.com Thursday said Lai Chi, 37, is planning a wedding to Ma Tingqiang, a disabled businessman, in Australia on February 22.
Lai Chi's father did not deny the information, but hinted people will soon hear details.
Is this another "flash marriage" common among people in the entertainment industry? Hong Kong's Next Magazine disclosed that the actress has been quietly dating Ma Tingqiang for about six years.
Lai Chi announced her retirement from show business shortly after the release of her latest work, "The Gem of Life," on October 20. Fans were told the actress had to look after the business of her brother, Lai Ying, who is in poor condition after a car accident.
Reportedly, Lai Chi felt stressed out with filming, looking after her brother, and running his business at the same time. It was Ma Tingqiang who lent Lai Chi a warm hand and helped her through the tough period.
Media reports say that, as Ma has difficulty moving, the wedding proceedings will be simplified and only relatives will be invited to the celebration. Sources say the actress is busy preparing her dowry.
Lai Chi has not yet confirmed the information.
