While I’m not undermining their relationship, and believe that some couples do “just know” early on, the practical side of me can’t help but think that one year is not enough time to fully know somebody, let alone, marry them, lol. I think the fact that he’s pretty fresh out of a divorce is enough reason to tread lightly, but hey, the heart wants what it wants. At 39, she has probably been feeling the pressure to sync up for quite a while now. As for whether or not Niki was the third party, I guess no one will ever really know except for the people involved, but if what she says is true, then I wish them the best.

@cutie777 Oh, DUH. Lol thanks for pointing that out. All three men still look great for their respective ages... And not a fan of Ron’s, but it’s always nice to see him and Raymond attending the same events, too. Love a good bromance!

@oystergirl agreed and agreed. charmaine had about an episode's worth of decent acting, and that was it. pretty overrated.

@oystergirl I guess they’re not on the picture above but if you click on source and scroll it down you’ll definitely will see them.

@coralie “other factors” being the engaging plot, and strong cast ensemble (aside from Xu Cai, who was quite weak imo, but I guess his face made up for it in the eyes of the general audience). Charmaine’s acting only stood out to me towards the very end.

Awww, what a sweet gathering! These days, even 10 years of marriage is considered a tough feat (particularly where celebs are concerned), let alone 29. I agree with Michael’s view on divorce, in that it should only be considered as the very last resort, after all other options have been exhausted. On another note, I don’t see Felix or Kent in the photo, but it’s nice to know that they still keep in touch!

@oystergirl good observations! I also saw earlier interview clips when Carlos and Jeannie spoke about what they thought of each other. Jeannie's eyes especially lit up and her smile was so wide. She seemed so animated as she praised him for his responsibility and being a nice person...seemed too earnest if they were just friends. I hope they admit their relationship openly instead of continuing to deny it after this Tokyo trip.

I like Peter, but didn’t really care for Viva’s acting in Ruyi. She was one of the concubines whom I thought had a tendency to over-exaggerate. Likely to skip this drama, unless it turns out to be very well received.

I saw one of their live interviews for ICACI a while back, and thought it was blatantly obvious that Carlos was interested in her. He was constantly staring, teasing and nudging her. Definitely didn’t come off platonic to me, haha. She kinda reminds me of Jennifer. Seems like he has a type! If the rumors are true, then I hope it pans out well for them. They look compatible.

@coralie I never found him attractive (too scrawny) personally, but I guess I could see the appeal. lol Specifically requesting to pair up with Grace in a drama does come off predatory. She seems like the naive, impressionable type that would easily fall for it too, so I think there’s definitely some truth to your theory.

@oystergirl he was hawt when he was younger, so i can see the appeal back then for numerous women including niki, charmaine, linda, etc. but with grace, i think he preyed on her. i remember reading an article way back about how he deliberately requested grace chan to star in that vampire drama. now why would he do that when she did TERRIBLY in that pirate drama? couple that with her inexperience in this field, her alienation in HK, onslaught of critics regarding her acting in pirate drama, and he sure seems like a welcome beacon of warmth & acceptance. easy target for sure.

@oystergirl Kevin was very attractive and charming in his 30's. I think he is the type who can be sweet to his other halves, and easy to talk to (easy-going). I am not saying he is not attractive / charming now (because he still is but more mature) but he used to be a heartthrob like the 3 Heavenly Kings used to be.

@coralie I wonder what it is about Kevin that is so alluring to these women... He’s been involved with quite a number of beauties, including Linda Wong, Niki Chow, Charmaine Sheh, and now Grace. I don’t follow him closely enough to judge, but going off the few interviews I’ve seen, there’s really nothing outstanding about his persona. His acting, while not bad, isn’t particularly amazing either. Grace could have easily found someone closer to her age range with equally, if not, better prospects than Kevin. Maybe she’s just caught up in the fantasy of marrying her childhood idol? I agree with your sentiment about the whole age difference, though. Being that my dad is 25 years older than me, I find their 22 year gap especially creepy. It doesn’t help that Kevin’s age seems to be rapidly catching up to him (looks wise).

Worthiness aside, what kind of a song title is “One Man, One Woman, and a Bathroom”? Lol! I’ve heard of some pretty ridiculous song titles, but this one has to be at the top of the list.

Ali was expected. Not mad about her win, though I hope this award serves as an encouragement to reach greater heights, rather than a security blanket to stay complacent. As for Joe... he can’t hold a candle to Dicky, and we all know why he got the award. The rest of the wins were equally superfluous. Oh, TVB... it has really come down to this.

@oystergirl Lol. Tell me about it!!

@megamiaow Exactly. As long as they aren’t harming anyone in the process, it’s nobody’s business but their own how they go about spending their money.

@moseenaddict I’ve only (fortunately) seen a few of his dramas, and I also thought he was bad in all of them. He’s got zero talent or charm. I don’t understand why TVB keeps casting him.

It’s events like these that feed into the delusions some fans have about one day meeting and dating (or even marrying) their idol. Lol

@wm2017 What makes her seem “wild”?
