#SHOWBIZ: TVB star Eva Lai announces romantic beachfront Sabah engagement at 62
HONG KONG: Veteran actress Eva Lai Yin Shan, who made headlines last month when she announced her engagement to her non-celebrity partner, has shared the details of his romantic proposal.
Hong Kong TVB star Eva Lai Yin Shan, 62, has announced her romantic beachfront engagement in Sabah to her non-celebrity fiancé. In an interview with Ming Pao Weekly, the actress revealed the details of her partner's surprise proposal. Lai's beau, who is nine years her senior, had secretly planned the entire surprise. During their holiday, he proposed to her surrounded by close friends, presenting her with a bouquet of roses and the engagement ring.
The couple plans to marry next year on the anniversary of their first date, which took place two years ago. Lai and her fiancé had known each other for over two decades through their shared church. Their relationship strengthened significantly after she turned to him for support and prayers during a challenging period of her life.
After divorcing actor Tony Liu in 2004, Lai had spent many years as a single mother, managing all household responsibilities and raising her two children alone. Finding a loving and caring partner has brought her immense comfort and allowed her to relax and rely on someone else. The couple intends to keep their wedding intimate, opting for a small gathering with close family and friends rather than a grand celebration.
Reflecting on her journey after facing numerous heartaches, Lai expressed her belief that love can blossom even at an advanced age, stating, "You can fall in love even at 80."
