Yeung, who had long dreamed of surprising his girlfriend of 10 years, 39-year-old Ch’ng, had planned a grand proposal but found his plans derailed when friends inadvertently revealed the secret. The couple, who married in Kuala Lumpur on August 2nd, confessed that their friends and relatives' excitement over the proposal led to the ring size being shared prematurely. Despite the proposal being spoiled, Yeung admitted he had been contemplating marriage for years, but delays due to the Covid-19 pandemic and their demanding careers pushed the timeline. The couple then discussed the key aspects of their relationship. Ch’ng praised Yeung’s simplicity and genuine nature, admiring his devotion to his elders. Yeung, in turn, lauded Ch’ng’s kindness, noting that she could never be a bad person. Another notable change in Yeung was his shift from a social lifestyle to becoming a homebody after marriage. The couple expressed their desire for children but stated they will let nature decide the timing, with their dream being two children, a son followed by a daughter.",
