Kevin Cheng, Grace Chan to Get Married in August

Wedding bells are just around the corner for Kevin Cheng (鄭嘉穎) and Grace Chan (陳凱琳)! Meeting on the set of TVB drama, Blue Veins <殭> in 2015, the couple has been dating for three years and will be the knot in August.

The relationship was initially ill-received due to the couple’s 22-year age gap. Not only did the public feel that they would not last, it was also speculated that Grace’s father, who is only a few years older than Kevin himself, disapproved of the relationship. However, they proved the majority wrong and maintained a loving relationship and have been co-habiting.

Wedding in Canada

Next month, the couple will be returning to Grace’s hometown in Canada to host a small wedding banquet. Only a few close family and friends are invited to the wedding, including Kevin’s good friends from A Fistful of Stances <鐵馬尋橋>: Kenneth Ma (馬國明), Natalie Tong (唐詩詠), Stephen Wong (黃嘉樂), and Jazz Lam (林子善). The “siblings” have already put in their vacation requests in order to make time to attend the wedding.

Kevin Wants to Start a Family

The wedding does not come as a surprise. During an earlier interview, Grace had already admitted the couple’s plan to get married within the next two years. After Grace’s good friend, Winki Lai (賴慰玲), gave birth to a baby boy, the couple was even more eager to start a family of their own.

Kevin filmed Mainland dramas and films this past year, earning approximately $50 million HKD. With his new wealth, Kevin wants to get married and have a baby soon after the wedding. Although Grace is only 27 years old, she does not mind putting work on hold in order to become pregnant.

  1. Congrats to Kevin and Grace! They have always been full of love towards each other; very happy for them!

    I think Kenneth Ma and Jacqueline Wong may be next! They’re also another couple in a stable and loving relationship. Jacqueline’s playful nature lights up Kenneth’s lifestyle.

    1. @tiffany what career does she have? she has never improved all these years. we are too happy she is getting married and disappear to start a family.
      kevin cheng doesn’t seem to age well…that’s ok. she gets her man while he gets to enjoy young grass.

  2. Gratz!

    27 is a decent age to have a baby if that’s what she wants. Kevin being 50ish is a bit old in another hand. When the kid finally goes to college, he’ll almost be 70! O.o I know this is nt new news but still…

    1. @jjwong 70 years old! it’s scary thinking about it. she will be 40 when the child is 12 but he will be 62.

      Jacqueline’s youthful and playfulness has brought out the best in her boyfriend…i agree with jayne. Kenneth Ma is not as uncle like before.

    2. @jjwong 22 year age difference actually isn’t too bad. Veteran singer Alex To and his wife Icy have a 24 year age difference between them (Alex is supposedly only a few years younger than his father-in-law and I think a year or two older than his mother-in-law), yet have been happily married for 6 years, with both becoming parents 2 years ago when their son was born. Joe Tay and his current wife Angie have a 19 year age difference between them, plus Joe already has 2 grown children (his son is 28 and his daughter is 24), yet they’re happily married as well. The difference of course is that both Alex and Joe aged well and still look really young (honestly, both can still pass for 40 and no one would think the better of it), whereas Kevin actually does look old so his age gap with Grace is more pronounced. Depending on how you look at it, age gap doesn’t have to be an issue as long as the couple is compatible and truly love each other….though with that said, even I have my limits, lol – to me, 25/26 years gap is still “tolerable,” 30 years is pushing it but still “ok”…but if it gets to Patrick Tse and his (now ex) girlfriend Coco level where the age gap is like 50 years plus (not to mention the girl is way younger than both his adult children, who were both in their 30s when Patrick first started dating Coco), I’m sorry but that’s “pedophile” territory in my book….

      1. @coralie
        I agree. Kevin holds all the cards now. He is still the idol,or at least a ‘housewife killer’ and the more famous one. Wait another 10-20 years and Grace will hold the cards since Kevin will be no heartthrob anymore and she will still be relatively young. It’s might turn into a George Lam- Sally Yeh repeat where they look for their own lifestyles to suit their age. The Kevin-Grace age gap is much more extreme than George-Sally too…..

      2. @coralie KC doesn’t age well for guys in late 40s touching 50. I am very happy motor mouth disappears from our screens. have 2 kids quickly and she will be kept busy.
        when the guys hit their 70s or 80s, their character usually changes. they are over the hill and if the wives are only in their 50s. there is a huge generation gap between them and the kids…teenagers are not easy to handle.

      3. @llwy12 25/26 still tolerable? haha lol WOW!!
        Anyway, the Alex To guy is still looking YOUNG for his age for sure. The wife certainly do NOT look young standing next to him. KC looks older now esp when she’s next to this soon to be skinny bone wife. I am not familiar at all w/this Joe Tay you are talking about so I goggled him. hahhah LOL…OMG this guy yes he still looks quite young as well and he still plays someone’s son other than playing some sort of dad or grandfather character. haha It’s amazing. But for coolness and cuteness I would still say Alex To. He looks awesome for his age.

      4. @jimmyszeto Haha, yea Asian women usually age well until nearing 50s then they go down hill faassst.

        @llwy12 Totally nothing wrong with age gaps, big or small. Whatever floats both parties’ boat. However, it’s unfair for the kids, imho, to have older parents. When kids are in young, it’ll be harder on the parents to be physically involved when it comes to sport and those sort of activities. It’s one thing to sign them up in teams; it’s another to be outside throwing balls with them. It’s not impossible but just harder.

        @janet79 KM has been a boring goofball. Jaq is a young energetic goofball so I agree too that Jaq compliment and influence KM well. He’s not so “moot doot” (wooden) anymore lol.

      5. @jjwong
        i can’t say that i agree w/ the old age parent philosophy. it really depends on how many kids you have. having started a family, it is actually more mentally exhausting than physical. i am mentally exhausting everyday from my kids. i am really physcally okay though and i am no spring chicken. i think it’s just something old people say to trick young people into having kids early.

      6. @m0m0
        It is more likely that an older parent will have less input into the children as they grow older. Including the huge communication gap there will also be a lack of energy from the parent. As a child, I would probably hate it if I was taken to school by a parent old enough to be my grandad but love to have an older parent in my teenager to young adult years when I can roam free without much interference of aging parents.

      7. @m0m0 Are you in your 70s with teenage kid (s) currently? I know someone who’s mid-50 currently with an 8 years old son. He tried to be as involved and supportive with his as as possible. Taking him camping, playing balls, going to Chuck-e-Cheese like places; much kudos to him. But at the end if day, he’s exhausted physically. Mentality, he’s hapoy as he can be because he spent time with his son. Everyone is different really. do want to ditto what @jimmyszeto comment. It’s not merely a “scared tactic.” It’s simple fact. It’ll take more toll on your body as 50s running around with a youngster than say 30s.

      8. @jjwong i think kids generally will make you mentally exhausted regardless of your age. They are demanding when they are young, and trying to figure out what make them happy, or juggling your kids with other people’s kids when they play with one another is also another factor that can make you exhausted. And even if you don’t have to deal with that, some random kids can just be constantly screaming and that after awhile will give you a headache >_>

        for sure that as you are older, you have less energy, but it’s really your mentality, if you want to be involved with the kid, you will put in the work, and many actually quite fit despite being older, so I don’t see that as a problem. If anything, older parents don’t tend to worry too much about their career and therefore can be more involved in the kid’s life.

      9. @llwy12
        I think people generally seem more accepting of big age gaps if the guy is older as women generally age faster than men. In my own book, if a guy is old enough to be my father or young enough to be my son, no way! It just seems so awkward dating or marrying someone so much older or so much younger.

      10. @hetieshou I agree…personally I wouldn’t want that for myself either but when I see it with others, I generally don’t have a problem with it even if it’s a bigger age gap unless it’s something super awkward like an 80 year old getting together with a 20-30 year old (i.e. Patrick Tse and his ex Coco).

      11. @hetieshou it’s weird going out with a guy who looks much older. young enough to be my son is NO NO.
        imagine when the kids are hyperactive toddlers and the father is 55, running after them is no joke.
        when holding their hands and bringing them to school, it will look like grandpa bringing grandson.

    1. @snoopy I think many of us are very happy motor mouth will be busy with kids. if she brings the kids to Canada, that’s even better!

  3. 27 years old perfect age. Grace is wise in not making the same mistake of a lot of actresses who have gambled on their career and ended up being 40+ years old with a partner and babyless.

  4. Well, at least their kids will be gorgeous. Kevin Cheng in his younger days was a heart throb and Grace is in her prime now.

      1. @passingby lol i don’t think they confirmed it yet either, which is why this report comes as a surprise now (they make it sound real.) they did say they’ll announce it if they decide to get married.

        for grace’s sake, i really don’t suggest marrying someone that much older than her. but if that’s what she likes, then that’s what she likes.

    1. @coralie kevin cheng was a heart throb in his younger days…but GC doesn’t seem to have Chinese blood in her…her parents look Chinese but not her.

  5. Looks like she’s going to be the next Linda Chung and Aimee Chan. Kevin remind me of the 4th kings Leon, Andy, Jacky and Aaron starting a family at a late age.

    1. @cutie777 Yes and no. Jacky actually first became a dad in 2000 when he was 39 — “old” for normal standards (though relatively young considering people in the industry usually put off marrying and having children until later in life)….but definitely way younger than Andy, Aaron, and Leon, all 3 of whom became dads when they were past 50.

      Kevin is 49 right now, right? If the news is true that Grace is pregnant and that’s why they are getting married, then he would still be starting a family earlier than 3 of the 4 Kings. For men, it’s not as big a deal, as there are some who become fathers at even later ages, but for women, it of course matters more. Selfishly, I do hope that Grace becomes the next Aimee Chan in that she gets married, has children, and retires from acting so that we don’t have to see her onscreen anymore….

      1. @llwy12 well you could be right about Jacky maybe I was a little too young to remember his age when he first became a father. Yes I’m looking forward for Grace to have kid and stay home with them that way we don’t need to see her on screen for a while.

  6. Can’t help but wonder if she’s already pregnant with his kids…cause what’s with the sudden , small wedding? Suspicious indeed…

    1. @secretlone the wedding sounds like a quick one…could this be a shotgun? they are already staying together.

      kevin will be turning 49…just a few years younger than future father-in-law. nicky wu is only a few years younger than his mother-in-law.

      like what llwy mentioned, I really hope she disappears completely from entertainment. it’s a pain to see her acting. have 2 or 3 kids, since kevin is so rich.

    2. @secretlone out of the blue, they mentioned getting married and natalie kept saying she can’t mention the ‘pregnant’ thing sounds fishy. anyway, i’m super happy GC disappears from our screens.

  7. This is all still speculations since nothing is confirmed by them themselves, but since the rumour mills are spinning very fast as of late it really does seem true!
    I was watching some interviews with Kevin’s ‘groomsmen’ from the Big Big Channel show the other day, and to say they are actors and actresses their ‘pretending not to know anything’ responses was so poor haha, especially Natalie Tong and Kenneth Ma. You could see straight through their reactions lol!

  8. while 27 is not a bad age to marry but still on the young side. hopefully her choice is not with all the brain-washing from around her afterall, in asian cultures girls expire after age 26. marriage life isn’t all happily-ever-after. it gets tough esp after having kids b/c it just doesn’t get easier. as such a young and beautiful girl, she has many choices. kevin is hardly a heartrob now and he’s not getting any younger. she will be 30 and still attractive, don’t know if they will still be as sweet as they are now.

      1. @jimmyszeto I guess 15 to 20 years down the road it won’t make much of a difference to Grace if she has to take care of 3 old persons instead of 2.

      2. @passingby
        I guess Kevin has recently made enough money to hire many babysitters and carers to look after the children and the 3 old persons….

      3. @jimmyszeto
        Grace’s parents are rich too so why must all of the financial burden be on Kevin? Since Kevin is well off Grace may not need to do much.
