#SHOWBIZ: '36 is ideal': Grace Chan jokes she married Kevin Cheng too young at 27
HONG KONG: Actress Grace Chan, 35, who married 57-year-old Kevin Cheng in 2018, has opened up about settling down relatively early — admitting she sometimes lives vicariously through her single friends.
HONG KONG actress Grace Chan, currently 35, recently reflected on her early marriage to 57-year-old Kevin Cheng in 2018. The couple, who have a 22-year age gap, share three children: Rafael, six, Yannick, five, and Carlos, three. In a recent interview with content creator Christina Cassidy, Chan revealed that her husband's unique background, having studied in the United States during his youth, makes him different from a typical Hong Kong man.
Despite this, Chan praised local men, describing them as more caring and attentive. Chan herself was 27 when she tied the knot, which surprised Cassidy, leading Chan to jokingly suggest that her friend should consider marrying at 36, allowing time for them to date for six more years. The couple first met in 2014 while Chan was filming TVB drama Overachievers, and their romance blossomed further after starring together in the 2015 drama Blue Veins.
Initially, Chan's mother had reservations due to the significant age difference, but the couple eventually married in Bali in 2018 after three years of dating.
