Rarely implicated in rumors throughout his twenty-four year career, Bowie Lam was romantically rumored with Flora Chan Wai Sanmany years ago. Afterwards, he has often been romantically linked with his male personal assistants. To avoid his sexual orientation affecting his appeal to the audience, Bowie suddenly revealed in 2004 that he once had a girlfriend whom he dated for two years. However, this “girlfriend” was like a “vanishing spirit” [and was only spotted by the press once].

Linked with Mr. Hong Kong , Bryon Pang

In 2007, former Mr. Hong Kong contestant, Bryon Pang Koon Kei, appeared at Bowie Lam’s mother’s funeral. The event brought to light Bowie and Bryon’s relationship. However due to Bryon’s alleged involvement with gay film director, Wan Yik, Bowie ’s friendship with Bryon ended.   Bowie became closer with his male personal assistant, who had worked for him since 2005. His assistant moved into Bowie ’s house and was allowed free use of his car.

Forty-four year-old Bowie ’s sexual orientation has always been a mystery. His close companions have always been men. Several years ago, allegedly Bowie became intimate with his personal fitness trainer, Daniel. The pair even invested in a clothing store together. After the store closed [due to poor sales], Daniel became Bowie ’s personal assistant. Daniel often spent the night at Bowie ’s house. Bowie and Daniel’s relationship was not announced but the intimacy was self-evident. In 2004, during the filming of television series <邂逅> in Beijing , Bowie met an extra on the set, whose features resembled Raymond Lam Fung. Bowie got along very well with him and made him his new personal assistant.

For a long time, Bowie treated his Raymond-Lam-look-a-like assistant only as a subordinate. In 2007, Bowie was still involved with Bryon Pang. Concerned about his sexual orientation having an impact on his popularity, Bowie concealed his relationships. Allegedly, Bowie ’s assistant continued to quietly accept the situation, realizing that Bryon Pang’s outspoken personality will not tolerate keeping the relationship underground for long.

Last year, gay film director, Wan Yik started fully supporting Bryon’s career and paying for his living expenses.  Moving into Wan Yik’s Happy Valley home, Bryon was also allowed free access to his Ferrari and Maserati cars. The most important thing was that Bryon and Wan Yik’s relationship was open and the pair went out with their friends publicly. Last year, Bryon officially ended his relationship with Bowie .
Assistant Moves into Bowie ’s House

Perhaps Bowie’s break-up with Bryon Pang made him realize that his personal assistant suited his tastes more. Yesterday, Bowie and his assistant were spotted shopping together for groceries. His assistant acted as the chauffer and even helped carry bank financial statements and other personal items. It was apparent that after working for many years for Bowie , his assistant was held in great-confidence.
After several days’ observation, reporters spotted Bowie ’s assistant driving Bowie ’s BMW car to an auto-repair shop, which was owned by Bowie ’s younger brother. Afterwards, Bowie ’s assistant returned to Bowie ’s house in Ma On Shan to stay overnight. His assistant remained in Bowie ’s house throughout yesterday afternoon.

Jayne: For some time, I’ve felt that there was a high chance that Bowie Lam was gay. He may or may not be dating his assistant, as many trusted assistants probably have access to artists’ homes and cars.

Tabloids seem to like to link Raymond Lam’s name to everything nowadays. Even Bowie ’s assistant is described as a Raymond Lam look-a-like!
