Brilio.net - Andy Lau is a Mandarin action film actor whose name is widely known, not only in his country but also in Indonesia. Having had a career since 1982, his name has been alongside famous actors such as Jet Li, Jackie Chan and Bruce Lee.
However, apparently, the fame that Andy Lau already has has made this 62 year old actor and singer choose to keep his personal life private, especially his love affairs. Not many people know that Andy Lau is married to Carol Chu , a beautiful model from Malaysia. Having been married for years, the two of them rarely publish their affection in public.
Recently, the 62 year old actor revealed his reasons for keeping his marriage a secret to the public. During the promo for his latest film, MR. RED CARPET, Andy Lau said it was not wrong to keep his love story with his wife closed. Like his predecessor who chose not to reveal his personal life, Andy Lau also did the same thing.

"Our artists in the previous generation didn't talk about getting married and they didn't talk about having children, they didn't talk about that. So I don't think it's a problem," said Andy Lau, reported on Weibo, Monday (5/2).
Regarding Andy Lau's love journey, some time ago a veteran Malaysian reporter named Ye Xiao, who claimed to be the matchmaker for Andy Lau and Carol, told the story of the actor's love affair. It was revealed that Ye Xiao, who had kept the story for three decades, was the one who first brought Carol and Andy together. Their meeting occurred when Andy Lau held a concert in Malaysia.
"In the 1980s, I helped Carol and her sister attend Andy's concert in Malaysia. Because Carol's appearance was the type that Andy liked, he fell in love at first sight and they chatted for half an hour," said Ye Xiao, quoted by Jayne Star .
Not long after their first meeting, Carol and Andy were already comfortable with each other. In fact, Ye Xiao only found out that the two of them were dating when they were eating at Carol's family restaurant.
"At that time, we didn't have cell phones and only had a landline where you had to insert a coin at the front desk to make a call. Carol's older sister sat with me at the table and I could see Carol at the telephone table," he said.

"Her sister secretly said that Carol was waiting for a call from Andy. Not long after, the phone rang and it turned out to be Andy. Carol's sweet expression showed that she was very in love," Ye Xiao added.
It is known that Carol and Andy married secretly in the United States in 2008. Four years after the wedding, the two of them were blessed with a beautiful daughter named Hanna Lau. Even though they already have children and their marriage was registered dozens of years ago, Andy Lau and Carol Chu have not held a wedding until now.
