Ronald Cheng is going to be a dad again

Hong Kong celebrity Ronald Cheng recently announced the good news about his wife Sammie Yu's pregnancy by uploading an ultrasound photo from her prenatal check-up on Weibo. The singer-actor also revealed that their three-year-old daughter, Emma, 'will finally have a younger brother' as companion.

Ever since Emma was born, Ronald has reportedly transformed into a doting dad and often updates his social media with photos of the child, winning the likes of netizens. Â

While speaking to the media yesterday, actress Miriam Yeung expressed her well wishes for her ex-lover Ronald. At the same time, she refuted reports stating that she had deliberately transferred her son Torres Ting out of his pre-school, where Emma is also attending.

'The school was under renovation, so we temporarily changed [schools]. Now that the renovation has completed, my son has returned to his original school. Reporters are better [at making stories] than scriptwriters!' she exclaimed.

Also, Miriam has no qualms about the kids making friends with each other. 'Because Torres is at the stage where he needs to learn to interact and communicate with others. Getting to meet more people is good for him,' added the actress.

Ah Sa went to promote her Mandarin album "AS A SA" in Mainland lately. She showed up in Chongqing earlier and accepted interview from the media. Talked about her current love life, she said she won't reject others introducing boyfriends to her, she feels fate is the most important. She believes she would definitely find happiness in the future. Asked whether she won't consider finding her partner in the showbiz? She said let it be and won't oppose. As right now she is still friends with Ronald Cheng and would still call each other. She doesn't rule out performing with him together. As for the concert Twins held in April, the 3DVD and 3DVD+2CD version of it is releasing today. The two already pre-ordered them because earlier they owed concert ticket debts to their family and friends, so now they can only settle it with DVD.

Baby: I want to cry

After the joint press conference by Ah Sa and Ronald Cheng yesterday, many artists, close friends, and others have sent up well wishes and comforting thoughts to the pair.

After having wished their early reconciliation a couple days ago, Ronald's rumoured girlfriend Angelababy tuned into last night's joint press conference, and said, "I saw the video, I really want to cry. Does love have to have an expiry date?"

Ah Sa's good friend Hins Cheung said, "I am one of Ah Sa's close confidantes, but if she doesn't initiate the conversation topic, I won't ask. We don't like news that will cause trouble. (Has Ah Sa ever revealed her marital status?) No, I just know that it never worked out, and they broke up under mutual understanding. (Talked to you about it privately?) Yes, as a friend I knew about their relationship, but if it had worked out, I know Ronald would be a good husband. Life is painfully short, so one shouldn't waste time."

Edmond Leung knew about their love

Ronald's good friend Edmond also said, "We worked on 'Beautiful Cooking' for so long, so of course I knew about them dating, and would congratulate them on their wedding. (Did you know about their divorce?) I didn't know the specifics, but he's not an impulsive talker, so I won't ask him. Anyway, irregardless of their marriage or breakup, the most important thing is to live happily."

Ronald's moodiness suggests being dumped

Never having admitted to dating, Ah Sa and Ronald announced their sudden breakup on March 17 2010. Ah Sa appeared very relaxed, and was a face full of smiles at a promotion event, but Ronald appeared moody and depressed in the followed days. Their opposite expressions suggested that Ah Sa was the one who wanted to divorce, and Ronald had no choice but to accept it.

In 04, SaGei romance lifted off as a result of their collaboration on the movie "Hidden Heroes". In 05, their romance heated up, with reports of Ah Sa frequenting Ronald's Repulse Bay mansion, Ronald getting a tattoo of Ah Sa's full English name to prove his love, and further reports of them going on dates to the movies and wearing matching pacifier necklaces. In January of 2006, Twins had their first show at the Coliseum, and Ronald secretively attended to show his support. Half a year later, Ronald bid for and won Ah Sa's english name "Charlene" on a car license plate to give to her at a high price.

In April of 2009, Ronald was reported to have been looking for some fun at a nightclub, and there were more rumours of a relationship with Baby early this year. Everytime, Ah Sa supported her lover when asked about the allegations. A few days ago the two announced their breakup at press conferences for "Beauty on Duty" and "Just Another Pandora's Box" with interesting attitudes, but earlier Ah Sa once again supported Ronald, and said that he was a very good boyfriend.

Never admitted to be dating, but announced a break up, 4 year marriage and even divorce too! "Artist" or a "Fake"? Netizens adds an additional topic about Ronald Cheng and Charlene Choi to discuss about.

NETIZENS AGAINST AH SA & RONALD:

Ka Lai Lai: Actually it's really funny that many say because there is solid evidence that they held a press conference. But in reality it's because the marriage certificate is real and exposed to the public that they held the conference.

haha123: They were always refusing to admit the relationship. Now, the marriage certificate gets published, and they immediately hold a press conference, both of them seem really fake.

super2030: Because they are so naive and stupid, one mistake, didn't know they even got a marriage certificate too.

1260: They pretended so much, being so fake, I can't even tell whats the truth or lie from their words. The words that come out from the entertainment circle are all lies.

NETIZENS FOR AH SA & RONALD:

siu Ji: Actually, no matter if they tell us about the marriage or not, it's not our business! Artists aren't selling their personal life.

Lollipop (Pang pang Tong): Stars are just like normal people, for what reason that they cannot have a personal life? If they want to say then say, hopefully both Ronald and Charlene can recover from this.

Beijing Netizen: Divorce is already a painful situation, why is everyoen forcing them to be like this, treating them like invisible people is really miserable!

Yesterday at 4pm, accompanied by her assistant, Charlene Choi (Ah Sa) went off to the dance rehearsal room in Happy Valley to meet up with her partner from Twins Gillian Chung (Ah Gil). Often appearing in wide smiles, this time Ah Sa put her smiles away, looking stiff the whole journey. Since her press conference with Ronald Cheng, the rumors have been getting out of hand, she is suffering a great impact and feeling troubled. It was said that she's not only not sleepless, but also not eating well. Initially she's already thin, but now she's getting thinner. Yesterday at the rehearsal room, she wasn't excited about anything that happened. After rehearsing with Ah Gil, she forced out a smile and accepted an interview. She was getting really emotional as she spoke when her eyes became teary.

Reporter: You look thinner, are you really troubled?

Ah Sa: (forces smile and nodded) Yes. I hope EEG understands that after I complete the concert, they can leave some room in my schedule, so I can rest a bit! I really can't think of anything right now.

Reporter: It was rumored that you met a millionaire's son in Shanghai and this was the reason to your divorce with Ronald?

Ah Sa: (rolled eyes, bit her teeth as she spoke) That day, Ronald and I already clearly clarified and explained everything at the press conference. There is no third person in our relationship. There is no Shanghai millionaire's son that exists. I can prove it with time. (started to frown, getting more emotional as she spoke) I already said everything that needs to be said, if you want evidence then you can call Ronald. (Eyes turn red) There are so many made up news every day, sometimes there is a wealthy young master, sometimes there is a third person, there's even rumors that we have an illegitmate child!

Reporter: Have you called Ronald and tell him about it?

Ah Sa: Yes, we still keep in touch. Today I called him and told him about the new rumors (about the millionaire's son), Ronald told me that the Beijing reporters asked him about it too.

Reporter: You guys talk everyday?

Ah Sa: (Nods) Yes.

Reporter: You guys are in such close contact, is there a chance to get back together?

Ah Sa: (Puts her head down without a word, paused a moment and shook her head) Although we broke up, we are still friends. Whatever situation that hurts either of us, we will be concerned. I hope everyone can give me some time to forget about this issue.

Reporter: Forget? Have you been hurt?

Ah Sa: (emphatic) No.

Reporter: Why the divorce then?

Ah Sa: (Did not say a word, shook head)

Reporter: When you and Ronald went to the U.S to get marry, did you guys careful plan it out?

Ah Sa: (forces smile) No.

Reporter: Did you get a wedding ring?

Ah Sa: (Ah Sa looked at her left hand with no ring, paused a moment and shook head) -- No.

Reporter: Married for 4 years, did you guys plan to have a baby?

Ah Sa: No

Reporter: Is there a song that can describe your relationship with Ronald?

Ah Sa: (appeared impatient) I really have never thought about that, No!

Reporter: How is your current mood now?

Ah Sa: (sighs) Still need to work! Focusing entirely on the concert first, I really don't want to think too much right now, I hope time can go by faster.

EEG Contract does not allow marriage? 
Regarding to Ah Sa's contract with EEG, does it clearly state that she cannot get marry? EEG executive Mani Fok expressed: "The contract did not say that she's not allowed to get married! EEG and Artist only have a relationship in work, we do not get into their personal lives. We respect and trust our artists, the constant hostile rumors lately has greatly injured Ah Sa and Ronald. (Has EEG blamed Ah Sa's marriage?) No. Actually EEG and Fans see them as a pair, the marriage is nothing surprising. Actually the most difficult part in the whole situation is keeping it a secret, not to mention for such a long period of 4 years." As for Ah Sa's request to take a break, Mini expressed that they will try their best to accommodate that. After the concert, she has 3 advertisements and one Mandarin album song recording to work on. Also, Ah Sa and Louis Koo's new film will start filming on schedule.



Ronald Cheng's Response: Don't want anymore false reports

Proud of his career, but frustrated on relationships, Ronald Cheng clearly had on a thick foundation, but still that could not cover his troubled and swollen eyes. When on stage he expressed that his new film is over HK$10 million in the box office, his smile looks very forced. Towards the rumors that because Ah Sa met millionaire's son, so she wants to divorce him, Ronald clarified once again that the divorce has nothing to do with a third party: "Last time we have already provided an explanation, I already said that there is absolutely no third person. I hope everyone can give us some space. Always fresh new rumors everyday, I don't know how to respond anymore. Actually this isn't even the problem anymore because we have already came forward to explain the whole situation, whatever needs to be said is already been said, I don't want so many nonsense reports and no one cares about our jobs. We are really troubled." He also expressed that he does not mind working with Ah Sa, but when asked about the love tattoo, Ronald only answered politely: "Thank you."



Gillian Chung: Claims to be Ah Sa's other half 

Although Ah Sa did not go support the autograph session of Gillian Chung's new solo EP , but after Ah Sa announced the divorce, asked if Ah Gil is worried about the issue interrupting Twins' career development? Ah Gil said: "Never thought about it. I totally support her." She earnestly said: "It's often 8 or 9 out of 10 times that negative issues occur in life, each person will encounter many unhappy things, but every issue increases the experience and growth. Whatever has passed, let it be the past." Ah Gil also said that she is really thankful of all the support her company, family, friends and audience gave her during her most difficult time in life. It was only then she was able to get back up: "I never thought there was a today, being able to hold a concert, release an album and so many people who never gave up on me." She does not feel that Ah Sa's issue will affect Twins, she even expressed her love by saying: "She (Ah Sa) is my other half!"

The other day, Charlene Choi (Ah Sa) was in Mainland to promote her new film and exposed that after her 6 year relationship ended with Ronald Cheng, the rumors got out of hand. Most of the headlines would say Ronald is a playboy. At the film's Thank You reception, Ah Sa looked unhappy when she mentioned Ronald, tears formed in her eyes.

Gets into personality, clarifies for old lover

It was reported that the reason for the break up was because Ronald cheated? Ah Sa strongly supported Ronald: "We broke up because of mutual understanding, it does not involve any of the rumors. He is not that type of person. When I learned of the rumors, I was very angry, we have already broken up and still have to hurt Ronald and I. Our relationship had never involved a third person, the rumors have gone way over!"

Ah Sa explained that she only clarified for Ronald is because the rumors have started talking about his personality, she strongly stresses that Ronald is a faithful person. She said: "We broke up because of mutual understanding. There are many other factors in a relationship, don't always think its complicated. The world can be more simple." Ronald getting insulted, does her heart ache? She said: "Of course I am hurt. I'm already not happy about the break up, and still have to deal with constant rumors."

]Still keeps in touch, not awkward

There's a new version of the break up story, it was said that because Ah Sa has reached the "Pop Queen" status, so she breaks up with Ronald? Ah Sa said: "I announced the break up because I don't want any more speculations. The break up is between Ronald and I, we do not have to have to provide an explanation to the world. We are not dating everyone in the world." She admits that the rumors have given her trouble and stress, but she and Ronald are still friends, they still keep in touch and if they were to collaborate again, it would not be a problem.

It was also reported that she used the break up to cover up the marriage rumors? She said: "It does not involved any of the rumors, there are currently more than 10 versions of the story now!" But she refused to answer the question regarding to the rumors of her marriage to Ronald in 2006. She was then immediately suspected if the rumors are really true, why is she not willing to admit it? She insisted: "This is our personal life. I have already said what I wanted to say, there are many things I don't have to explain to everyone." Asked if she would choose for a secret marriage? She did not answer. Ah Sa denied that the Twins concert ticket sales are doing poorly. She felt that if the ticket sales were not doing well, then why would EEG decide to add another show? She also heard that EEG is considering adding more shows.

Charlene Choi & Ronald Cheng hold press conference confirming 4-year marriage; currently filing for divorce

Translation: Sarah @ http://asianfanatics.net

Recently, there were media reports of Charlene Choi and Ronald Cheng’s marriage certificate being exposed. Although the 2 both clarified their break-up to reporters, it seemed that the media refused to give up and continued publishing false reports. Hence today, the 2 decided to hold a press conference together.

This afternoon at 4pm, Ronald left his apartment and headed straight to the Jin Pai Da Feng office building. He looked very frustrated, and when reporters gathered around him, asking about the news of his marriage certificate being exposed, he replied: “See you all soon!” and then headed quickly into the lift.

At approximately 6pm, a large number of media arrived and there were over 100 reporters present. Everyone was waiting anxiously for the 2 main leads to appear.

At approximately 6:30pm, the 2 came out together to face the reporters, with a solemn expression on both their faces.

Ronald began his speech: “The marriage rumours are true. In 2006, we very happily made the decision to get married, and our parents both agreed for us to get married in Los Angeles. Both of us felt that there was no need for us to announce it to everyone. We both decided to handle the situation like that, but over the years, there have been many false media reports, hence now we have decided to hold this press conference. Today will also be the last time we make a statement regarding this matter. Throughout these years, I have been very happy with Ah Sa, growing together, but after deepening our understanding of each other, we both decided that breaking up would be better for both of us. I want to stress again, the reason for our break-up was not due to a third party; the false reports the public have been reading are not true. Our divorce procedure is currently in progress, and we will do everything that is legally required.”

After finishing, Ronald was immediately moved to tears, and Charlene also caringly handed some tissues to him. He continued: “Although me & Ah Sa are no longer going to be husband-and-wife,but we had a good and happy time together. And we hope that we will still remain friends in the future. Thank you everyone and we hope that everyone will give us our own space.”

After Ronald concluded his speech, Ah Sa choked back tears and expressed: “From when me and Ronald first met, to dating and finally to marriage, we agreed on every decision. And our marriage was not just our decision, we also got the support from our family and friends. We felt that there was no need to announce it to everyone, and we hoped that it could be our own little secret between us. Unfortunately, it seems like artists are not entitled to their privacy. We are still good friends. I hope that everyone can give us more space, and I also hope that me & Ronald’s life from now on can be happy.”

Finally, Ah Sa gave thanks to everyone and concluded the press conference.

Won't eat too much to avoid having to go poo in the forest
Ah Sa expressed that she's been working on this movie over the new year. For some scenes, they were shooting in the forest where she did not dare to eat too much. She said: "I didn't dare to eat too much, I'm afraid I'll have to go poo! Because they said that if we have to go for 'big business', we have to use plastic bags, that is very troublesome, so now I'm being careful not to eat anything wrong. I'll just do my business when I get home in the morning."

Towards this, Joey agreed, she expressed that since she entered the industry, she has always waited until she gets home to do her "big business". She laughed and said that she can control it very naturally.

The Swine Flu has been spreading, although Ah Sa is not sick, but yesterday she still wore a mask to attend the radio station, quite precautious. As the magazines had said that Ah Sa was trying to force Ronald into marriage, Ah Sa did not have any breathe to say: "It's really big fun! I don't even want to talk about, it's just so funny! My grandma saw the magazine and said that on the picture I have a shadow on the chest area. Before Grandma would often ask my mom why she doesn't make papaya soup for me to drink."

(Would you force marriage?) Nope, I'm not that type." Asked again if Ronald purposed to her? Ah Sa used both of her hands to cover her head and said: "My head hurts! (Don't want to tell a lie so you won't answer?) I don't like to talk about this." As the two's love is superficial, asked Ah Sa if in the future they could write Ronald as her boyfriend, don't need to write the two words "rumor"? Ah Sa said: "I don't like to say it so direct, everyone will think its true."

As for Alex Fong wanting Ah Sa to be a guest on "Beautiful Cooking" , so he can take the opportunity to play Ronald, Ah Sa forced laughed: "I think it's playing me.

Did he shock Ronald Cheng?

Speaking of that, one night when JJ and Charlene were having an interview, the director asked JJ to say some Christmas wishes on camera, because the director knew that JJ’s Cantonese wasn’t good, thus he asked JJ to use mandarin to say, but JJ looked at Charlene with love and said in Cantonese “No! I want Charlene to hear my Cantonese!” When Charlene saw that he was sincere, she immediately starting laughing!

But JJ was actually quite embarrassing, when the director told him to repeat; the confident JJ said “Wish (Pig) everyone a Merry Christmas (Voice)!” Everyone started laughing immediately, Charlene corrected JJ’s pronunciation and he could finally get it right in the third round, and Charlene and the crew applauded him for his effort.

Miriam Would Pick Tony Leung Over Both Daniel and Ronald

Thanks to Gaozai for translation!

Miriam was invited to Hunan TV to record a show. The host carried out three cardboards of Ronald Cheng, Daniel Wu and Tony Leung Chiu Wai and asked Miriam to pick one as her new boyfriend. Miriam picked Tony without hesitation.
She said, "I've cooperated with Daniel so many times, there's nothing new! Why not Ronald Cheng? I've picked him before, why pick him again?" Miriam thought Tony is different from the rest, "Of course Tony Leung! He has a wife, so I won't be able to get him!" She meant Tony has become unreachable hence is more precious than the other two.

The program played clips of Miriam from her singing competition until she became a heavenly queen in the music scene, and China fans' greetings. Miriam was touched and cried.
There was a fan who shouted "There's no need for you to reduce weight, you are prettier if you don't lose weight." Miriam laughed and said she does not lose weight for the sake of being pretty, but she has fallen in love with running.

Miriam has a Mandarin song in her new album "Wonder Miriam" to fulfill her desire to sing Mandarin songs. She said, "With Mandarin songs, I will be able to go to China and further places. I'll come to China more for promotion and meet more fans."

Traditional Festival Sees Twins Return

CRIENGLISH.com

The traditional Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival has provided pop duo Twins an opportunity for reunion.

Members of the Hong Kong girl group, Charlene Choi and Gillian Chung, made a rare public appearance together on Sunday in quake-hit Beichuan of Sichuan Province, celebrating the festival with locals.

They were joined by fellow singer Yumiko Cheng who, like Twins, was in Beichuan because of quake-benefit efforts made by their agent company Emperor Entertainment Group.

Gillian Chung, who was embroiled in a nude photo scandal in January, has been volunteering in Beichuan for about a week, Hong Kong media reported.

Twins went on almost complete hiatus after the scandal, and Charlene Choi had to attend promotional activities alone.

All their work were put on hold, leaving Ah Sa to face the media and her work alone. However, after over half a year, the issue has died down. Ah Gill is working hard towards her comeback. Earlier, Ah Gill was in Hangzhou as basketball ambassador. More recently, Ah Gill joined by Don Li and Yumiko made visits to Si Chuan. Last night, Ah Sa joined in for the volunteer work, letting the long hoped for Twins to reunite temporarily on Mid-Autumn Festival (人月兩團圓).

Ah Sa, who had to work alone for a long time, was very excited to finally reunite with partner, Ah Gill. The night before, she won an award for her solo song 《Make a Wish》 at the Jade Solid Gold 2nd Round. However, it wasn’t as happy as spending such a special holiday with Ah Gill.

Giving out Mooncakes and Lucky Bags
Ah Sa happily says: “Tomorrow I will reunite and spend the holiday with Ah Gill, together in Si Chuan to spend Mid-Autumn Festival with the locals. 10,000 mooncakes and lucky bags were prepared for the locals.” Will Twins songs be sang? She says: “We’ll have to see, because we aren’t doing this as a job.” It is known they will sing ‘Moon Represents My Heart’ 《月亮代表我的心》. You’re leaving Hong Kong for Mid-Autumn Festival, so that means you can’t spend it with rumored boyfriend, Ronald Cheng? She smilingly says: “I will be with Ah Gill.”

Visiting Northern Si Chuan, Leigu Town
This time, they will be in Si Chuan as representatives for EEG Charitable Funds to participate in “EEG’s Leigu Town Heart-to-Heart with Love Mid-Autumn Festival Celebration”. The day before, Ah Gill and Yumiko and Don have already arrived in Leigu Town to start their visits. It looks like her spirits are up and her confident smile has returned. They visited a grandma’s home, spending time to talk to her and give her massages. This grandma has lost all her family except one granddaughter to the earthquake. When they were leaving, the grandma gave them some peanuts as presents, but they didn’t want to take it (out of politeness), and unexpectedly, the grandma started to cry. Ah Gill and Yumiko took charge to distract the grandma while Don secretly returned the peanuts to the grandma’s home.

Dedication to the earthquake victims
In their trip, they met many of the earthquake victims; they were continuing to live strongly. They believe that what the victims need now is not money or presents, but love and care. Many of the villagers were very touched to see that they would travel all the way from Hong Kong to give up their free time and spend their holiday with them instead of with their own families. During their visits, they would play games with the kids and became photographers, taking photos with the villagers. Last night, Mid-Autumn Festival night, Ah Sa arrived in Si Chuan to reunite with Ah Gill, attending the celebration together and spending the holiday with the villagers hoping to share their love.

Charlene Choi (Ah Sa) appeared at a shopping mall in Tsuen Wan yesterday for the "Summer Active Fashion Show" guest appearance. The models were wearing swimwear, but Ah Sa was wearing long trousers and did not appear in swimwear. She laughs that she rather not dissapoint everyone with her average looking body.

Ah Sa has never used her body to seek attention. Asked whether her boyfriend is dissapointed with her body? Ah Sa smiles "It's a matter of opinion, If he loves me he should love every part of me." Asked whether her current boyfriend loves every part of her? She replies "I don't know!" Ah Sa stresses that she will not do plastic surgery or breast enlargements for her boyfriend, she feels that everyone has their own rights in choosing what they like. Personally she prefers to be natural, if she had added something to her body she would feel uncomfortable. The reporter asked if Ronald Cheng was the natural? Ah Sa laughs "I don't know, you better ask him".

Recently there were reports that Edison Chen had secretly come back to Hong Kong. Asked if she would feel awkward if she met him face to face? Ah Sa says it wouldn't be possible to meet up because she hadn't received any work that involved working with him.
