Ruby Lin and Wallace Huo Secretly Living Together for 4 Years?

Thirty-six-year old Ruby Lin (林心如) posted an intimate photograph with thirty-two-year-old Wallace Huo (霍建華) on Weibo, spawning speculations on their relationship. The onscreen lovers’ romance from The Glamorous Imperial Concubine <倾世皇妃> may have been secretly realized off screen! It was rumored that Ruby and Wallace have been living together for 4 years!

Ruby’s friends were quick to bestow their blessings for the couple, after her hugging photo with Wallace circulated on Weibo the day before. Cecilia Cheung’s (張柏芝) makeup artist and good friend, Rick Chin wrote, “Congratulations to the sweet little couple!”

Ruby’s good friend, Shu Qi’s (舒淇) reply also gave away the hot romance between Ruby and Wallace, “You are not in Shanghai when I am there. You are also not in Hengdian when I am there. I think you two did it on purpose!”

Onscreen Lovers Find Real Love?

Ruby and Wallace’s romance blossomed when they were paired up as lovers in Sound of Colors <地下鐵>, often dressing together in matching clothes and accessories. It was also rumored that they bought a “love nest” in Shanghai and have been secretly living together! They were often spotted buying groceries together and Ruby would visit Wallace at the filming set.

While filming The Glamorous Imperial Concubine last year, Ruby and Wallace were also photographed behaving intimately and playing with each other on the filming set.

Ruby Prefers Handsome Men

Ruby dated Jimmy Lin (林志穎) when they filmed School Days <校園敢死隊> in 1995. Ruby even described Jimmy as more dashing than Takeshi Kaneshiro (金城武). After breaking up with Jimmy, Ruby dated movie director, Stanley Tong (唐季禮) after cooperating on China Strike Force <雷霆戰警>.

When asked what qualities her other half must have, Ruby replied, “Looks are important! He has to be handsome and cannot appear nerdy! He must have a stable career and be financially stable. Preferably, he has to be at least 1.8 meters in height!” Her statement appears to fit the description of the dashing and hunky Wallace Huo!

Since Ruby and Wallace’s intimate photograph on Weibo surfaced, fans have been pouring their blessings to the couple. There were over 10,000 fans messages on Ruby’s Weibo! Apparently overwhelmed by fans’ reactions, Ruby has deleted the photograph, and wrote a new post on July 18th, “Did you miss me? I miss you!” Is Ruby leaving a private message to Wallace? 

The rumored couple remained silent about their relationship. Wallace’s manager released a statement that he was not aware of their relationship. Ruby also responded, “We will talk about it when you have our dating pictures!”

  1. 4 years is a long time for Wallace Huo and Ruby Lin to hide a celebrity romance! Didn’t anyone know?

    1. Because I don’t think it is 4 years if this is true.

  2. I think she is being playful. She isn’t communicating with him on weibo because he doesn’t have a weibo account, maybe except his studio has one. He is very good friends with him. Maybe I have seen similar pictures so at first I thought this picture is very familiar. His hairstyle is not the new one and he is thinner now so I think this is an old picture. If they’re dating, then it must be after Qing Shi Huang Fei because from what I can see, they seem close but not dating in those BTS. The way she explained in her interview in asking him to film the series does not suggest they’re dating. They both do live in Shanghai as with many actors they both know but being Taiwanese they do gravitate towards one another. Everyone knows for the past 3 months he has been busy filming, so those posts about Ruby being somewhere else with Wallace doesn’t make sense unless it refers to older times.

    If they have been spotted buying groceries together, I didn’t see those pictures in forums. I have seen pictures of him having dinners with his manager or friends and also buying groceries.

    And at least Wallace will remain silent because he never answers to gossips or rumours. He has been rumoured in the past. Ruby does like handsome men, look at QSHF and I am told she also likes fair men, Wallace fits the bill.

    Frankly I don’t believe they’re dating and if they’re definitely not for past 4 years.

    However if this is true, I am happy. I am all for this couple. If they marry, can you imagine how beautiful their babies will be? For me this is like Liancheng getting his Fuya. So I hope this is true. Since Wallace has ended with his filming, not sure what Ruby is doing, if this picture is true and they’re going public, we may see some pictures of them together by eagle eyed fans on the streets of Shanghai soon enough.

    1. “Ruby and Wallace were also photographed behaving intimately and playing with each other on the filming set.”

      From all the pictures I have seen, I didn’t see intimate behaviour. I do see playful behaviour. She knows him after all, they’re both from Taiwan.

      Visiting film set is a norm. If this refers to AFTER QSHF when she had to see the producer of the other series he was doing to ask him to free his timetable for promotion of QSHF purposes. Yes there was a rather cute picture of him examining her as a doctor, which she posted on Weibo. How come NO ONE claim such a rumour back then? Matching clothes is true. Fans have made comparisons photos, also the ones with him and Hu Ge.

      However this picture in the article is so familiar. I have seen it before. Or is it similar pose?

      1. But the fact that the manager says he doesn’t know anything suggests something is going on. How can manager not know how to deny?

    2. Funn,
      According to Sina, Ruby posted that photo of herself and Wallace brushing heads on her Weibo the day before. The photo could have been taken a long time ago, but the post may have been recent. Artists post dated photos on their blogs all the time.

      Ruby may have intended to post photo of Wallace and herself, without anticipation that she will be teased by Rick and Shu Qi. Rumored couples post these photos of themselves all the time, while professing only “friendship.”

      I don’t know if this incident is an example of “accidental discovery.”

      Also, if Ruby were not involved with Wallace, don’t you think it would be a lot easier and more gracious for her to write back teasing reply to Shu Qi and Rick instead, something along the lines of: “Wallace is my brother only!”

      However, deleting a post usually indicates that an artist regrets such an action, or a sign of being upset.

      Agree that Wallace’s manager’s words seem to imply that they are involved.

      If this dating news is fake, it would have made more sense to circulate the hype when “Qing Shi Huang Fei” was at the height of its broadcast last year, instead of now!

      1. They don’t need this hype. So this is old picture I think. There can be many reasons why she is not replying to them. And obviously she doesn’t see him as her brother. That is tacky. Ruby is forthright. In time we will know. But I doubt the 4 years and living together unless there has been rumours circulating.

    3. Funn,
      “Matching clothes is true.”

      Why on earth would friends wear matching clothes? To what level of detail do they wear matching clothes?

      1. Actually not THAT matching. Just same type, different colour. Eagle eyed fans also saw matching clothes with Hu Ge!! I suppose they have same sponsors.

  3. If there is any truth to it, I’m happy for them. 4 years is a lot. How did both manage to hide it? lol

  4. Funn, you raise some good points. But friendship can always turn into realization of love at later point. Look at Stephen Fung and Shu Qi, friends for 15 years and now the start of love rumors. The celebrities can always claim they are only friends and nothing more of course.

    However, it does take a lot of effort for celebrities to see each other frequently due to busy filming schedules. Sometimes for a male and female celebrity to spend a lot of solo time together indicates a close bond that may be more than friendship. Such as Stephen Fung traveling with Shu Qi and her mother to Tokyo.

    Carina Lau recently posted a photo of herself kissing Wu Bing on the lips! Of course she dismissed it as only a friendly gesture! 🙂

    1. Carina Lau is still married to Tony right?

      3 years should be logical. I feel if true this must be AFTER that series not before or during. When was it filmed? 2010? But living together is a bit too much. He is rather conservative from his interviews so I suppose if true it should be recently.

      I don’t dispute some relationship is slow burn. I want this to be true though. But again the time and some facts bothers me. Other than that also Ruby’s preference. If she liked handsome men, her past relationship with is it Stanley Tong, is he handsome? So maybe she is sick of being 2nd fiddle and now finds someone on equal footing. As for Wallace, no idea what sort of girls he liked although in 2010 he did mentioned he used to like pretty girls and from his early GF, also busty ones. But Ruby is a right fit. He was rumoured with someone else who turned out to be dating some other guy. Well he has been scandal free for most of the time. Not that this is a scandal. Wedding bells soon?!

      1. Funn,
        Thanks for the background info. Stanley Tong is one of Hong Kong’s more handsome directors, but he has packed on weight now. While filming “The Patriot Yu Fei,” Ruby was rumored to have re-ignited her past romance with Stanely, which she has denied by saying, “Going back to the past is impossible!”

      2. ” her past relationship with is it Stanley Tong, is he handsome”

        My mom used to call him ‘handsome director’. 😀

  5. ““We will talk about it when you have our dating pictures!”

    A challenge no doubt which the papparazi will be very eager to take up.

  6. If this new is true, I am very VERY pleased. Even if I do think that Wallace is prettier than Ruby.

    1. Of course but Ruby is less prettier but still pretty. So imagine, babies.. ahhhh…

      1. Oh yeah! Plastic pretty wait until few years time and see if she is still pretty!

      2. For once I must say she is a natural beauty. She is 36 and she still looks about 30. No plastic. Except loss of baby fat and a strange inability to act well even after so many years of acting exposure.

      3. @Funn: Ruby has this dainty prettiness very suited to her Zi Wei but don’t know why I just find her beauty only skin deep, and from the few videos I’ve watched of her early interviews esp. that Kangxi lai le, find her person quite superficial, too. And since I don’t follow her news, there that early image of her lodged in my memory of her.

        a strange inability to act well even after so many years of acting exposure.

        Though I did like her Zi Wei, I’ve never like her acting, which I find bland, wooden and formulaic.

      4. I personally don’t think Ruby is that pretty, but at least she is natural and isn’t plastic(at least from what I have heard). I agree that her acting is still not good even after years of acting. I guess she just does not have that innate talent to act just like some artists do.

        I agree with Clamine that she does seem superficial from what I have seen on shows and stuff… But oh well, I guess she also has her good points if Wallace likes her… Good luck to them!

      5. I disagree. I actually have a good impression of her out of camera. She seems spunky and spontaneous and watching BTS I find her very friendly and fun to be around. One of those very few actresses that I don’t find pretentious.

      6. @ Funn This was during her early days following HZGG. In the selective Taiwan talk shows and articles I read, together with the tv host(ess)she always made snide remarks and poked fun at the backwardness of mainland and its people. But turn around she acted accordingly during mainland talk shows. That’s why I did not have a good impression of her then thinking her superficial and ungracious to the mainlanders.

        But that was then. Early impression is often difficult to shake off, and that is the case with my impression with Ruby.

    2. uhhh no. Ruby is pretttttttttyyyyy. Classic beauty.

      Wallace is pretty? O_o

  7. Stephen and Shu qi did used to date a long long time ago, when Stephen was still in a band.

    1. P/S There is no sex scandal. The English is poor.

  8. O-O? Didnt Wallace have a gf? Or I rmb wrongly’

    But Chen Kun can cover his son for years, maybe…

    1. I always thought he’s gay. A friend who work in a China TV company told me so.

    2. @Fox

      He didn’t cover his son. Just that he doesn’t announce publicly and when he was asked, he admitted he has a son and said nothing more. From paparazzi pics and Chen Kun weibo posting, he has a healthy relationship with his son.

      @Kidd

      Really, gay? And I was wishing he can find a wife soon…

      1. Who? Chen Kun? No idea. Can’t gay have a son?

      2. Calling own son = adopted. I guess he wanna protect his son but it’s kinda rude to the kid.

      3. Chen Kun said himself and the kid looks resemble to him. Refer to my below answer to seh seh. I rmb they spend many guess on who is his mother. The most doubted lady was a Chinese actress, supporting only, who quit the showbiz long ago. She is considered as second Carol Chu or Lam Fung Gill.

      4. @Fox

        The reason I’m asking is because I read his interview articles before and I am sure that he never state that You You was adopted. He will only say that is his son.

        Good example in 2010:
        http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nw7j3CWUinQ

        Also, it’s true that he never denies he has a son, but he hates how media is so desperate to know whether You You is his biological son or not, and how they intrude into the child’s life.

        Chen Kun stance has always say that You You is his son (for all that matters), it’s just that he will not answer whether he is biological or not. But he never say that You You is adopted.

        I don’t know where you read those articles, but from my previous reading of articles that say You You is adopted, those are just tabloid speculations. Chen Kun never say so.

      5. Also in the clip there was a segment of older interview in 2008 where he acknowledge You You as his son, and he refused to clarify You You origin. He never said adopted. He has been consistent for the past few years.

      6. In 2006 he said to reporters that he adopted a son. You You’s face was always covered by mask. The reporters asked him if the adopted son is You You and he nodded. But I cant find the article for you.

      7. p.s I have an inkling of the ‘secondary actress as birth mother’ article. I read that before, it was tabloid article. There were plenty of rumors of You You birth mother, even involving Zhou Xun.

      8. Well Fox, I do appreciate if you could find that article. But from what I provided, he never say You You was adopted since 2008, so the allegation of Chen Kun only admitting You You was not adopted ‘recently/now’ doesn’t hold water.

      9. @ sehseh

        That’s what my friend told me. Gay or not, he’s still beautiful and a great actor. 😀

      10. Alright sehseh, maybe I’m too hooking up with old news so I don’t realize that Chen Kun dun said of the boy as adopted son anymore.

    3. He said the son is adopted. After years, he admitted it’s his real.son. Biological. The kid is 9 years old if I rmb rite.

      Now who is his mother is a hunt.

      1. Hmmm from what I read in the pasy, he did not say whether he is biological or adopted when asked. His message in interview is that boy is his son, end of story.

        Which article did he say that boy is his adopted son?

      2. He always said the boy is adopted. But then ppl find when the boy grows up, he looks resemble to Chen Kun. So he accepted he is his biological son. I dun have the habit to save link of articles I’ve read so cant find for you. Even to my faves I dun save.

    4. The only girlfriend that I have ever heard of Wallace having was Joe Chen(another taiwanese actress). They used to date in the past… Not sure about any other girlfriends…

      Chen Kun is gay? I did not know that… Is he really gay??

      1. The only openly acknowledged girlfriend. Yes it is Joe Chen.

      2. Chen Kun might be a bisexual, not really a homosexual. It isnt matter. He is still a good actor although I cant really feel for him. He is the famous version of Deng Chao to me.

      3. Oh yea, he can be bi and I also heard rumours of Wallace Huo being bi as well. It is true that it should not matter but I must say that it will affect some people because not everyone is accepting of these kinds of things yet…

      4. Might cause by Wallace’s pretty face!

        Homosexual or Bisexual isn’t a matter to me :D. And I guess in this period, more ppl accept Homosexual and Bisexual.

  9. i thought they were always good friend?. Wallace always very mysterious on his private lives. Both of them does not age very well, recently watch ruby in kang xi, she age quite a bit. Both of them are pretty and handsome but does not age very well. Comparing with wallace zhong still look freaking young.

    1. Both Wallace Huo and Ruby have a face that ages fast.. I agree that Wallace Chung ages a lot better and still looks young for his age since he has the type of face that ages better. He is older than Wallace Huo and Ruby too.

      1. Maybe we are seeing different pictures but Ruby is 36 and at HDTV she still looks pretty, flawless sort of skin, and younger than her age. Some actress not yet 30 already look used. She still looks fresh although not as young as she was which is the usual.

        Wallace Huo is only 34 and he has great skin to begin with. His problem is he doesn’t take care nor care about his skin. And you may think he looks old because he has very old-ish behaviour with the way he stands and all. But with some make up or on his best day when he does take care of his skin, if he opens his eyes bigger a bit, gain a bit of weight, his face can stand through the difficult test of HDTV. He is simply gorgeous on screen and the camera loves him. Out of camera is a different matter. And on such good days, he looks younger than his actual age but not much. And male actors don’t want to look younger; with age, lines and crow feet comes the illusion of a veteran actor and that is what he actually wants.

        I believe Wallace Chung is older than Wallace, and yes he does look good but I haven’t seen him in actual Hi Def TV so I can’t comment. But each man whilst sharing the same english name is so different. One fair, one dark, one young, one older, etc so to compare is not fair.

        Certain angle Wallace Huo looks like Aaron Kwok or Louis Koo, certain angle that is him. The thing with Wallace Huo is I can never pinpoint his looks. But I can certainly pin point that furrowed forehead or whatever you call that look.

        As actors, I personally feel Wallace is better at being tragic. Wallace Chung… the last time I saw him was in Royal Tramp and frankly I didn’t think much of him. Nowadays he might be different. All I know is these 2 men have huge fanbase, each to his or her own and I notice never any fan ever mistaken between one Wallace and another even in forum posts. Which to me speaks volumes how individual they are and that is a cause for celebration.

      2. Wallace Chung has baby face to help him when he ages.

        Btw, the abbreviation for Wallace Chung and William Chan is funny :p.

      3. Looks at Jimmy Lin. Baby face and now aged and he just looks weird as he ages some more and still look baby faced. Wallace Chung looks youthful but hopefully he will age appropriately which will give him some credence.

      4. Actually Wallace Huo is not 34 yet. He was born in 1979 so he should be 33 not 34. Wallace Chung was born in 1974 so he is 38 and is 5 years older than Wallace Huo. Ruby packs on tons of make up most of the time so of course her skin will look flawless. In Feng Shen bang,she wore really thick makeup.

        As for acting, I have seen wallace Chung a lot and in a variety of roles so he is a good actor. I have seen him even more than Wallace Huo, but have seen wallace huo enough to know that he is talented as well. I guess it is hard not to compare them at times or get them confused due to them both having the same English name. I often confuse Raymond Wong and Raymond Cho, but never confuse them with Raymond lam for some odd reason.

      5. Jimmy Lin has aged A LOT… He sort of has that baby face, but not really… I don’t feel he has aged that well at all.. I used to be a big fan of his and really see how much he has aged. Wallace Chung ages better than he did.

      6. Can’t young forever :D. But there are ppl who age better than the rest. I find that the small bones and the baby face often aged well.

      7. Of course who can be forever young?? But the fact is,can you age well?? I think it is best to age naturally instead of try to defy it with botox and all. Baby faced people and people with fuller faces tend to age better.

      8. i saw her on kang xi. Her eyes area already kinda started losing fat. As for skin i think she wear quite thick foundation most of the time but could be wrong. Sometimes even with thick foundation still have nice skin to begin with.

        As comparison for wallace chung and huo, i think now wallace huo still OK because he is only 33 now but at 40 i’m not quite sure. But wallace chung face type normally will look better as they age. Some men will look better as they age.

        Jimmy lin look really odd now. He look aged but still has baby face. Compare with alec su he actually aged more. I am quite surprise alec su look better now than back then.

        o well ppl aged, otherwise will be yiu kuai haha…

    1. Cute compilation but most from the series itself. The others indicate nothing concrete. I wonder what about those of her with Yan Kuan?

  10. Wow! Ruby going for good looking man, got a good catch on this dashing hot & hit young handsome man, very good choice. If it is real all the Best !

    1. Handsome man produces beautiful babies, just like myself my husband is good looking and my children has beautiful features just like “Ang Mo Lang” no need to go for PS.

    2. Beauty + beauty might result an ugly duck. DNA is complicated.

      1. Genes and DNA really do work strangely. Two good looking people can have ugly or only average looking kids while two not so great looking people can have really good looking kids. It really varies..

      2. it’s quite true. Sometimes not so good looking parents have beautiful kids. Never knows.

      3. It is true in some cases like in my family, I have an uncle and aunt that are both not good looking at all. However, all of their kids(my cousins) turned out pretty good looking.

      4. Not necessary Beauty + Beauty turn an ugly duck, don’t agree at all cos if husband sharp nose + wife sharp nose = children flat nose.

      5. husband sharp nose + wife sharp nose = children flat nose.

        Can! If the grandma or grandpa has flat nose.

        Do you ever read of White + White = Black. The reason was that the gene of the grand grand ma who is a black.

      6. There are times that you end up looking like an immediate uncle, aunt or even grandparent so it is not always looking like your parents.

  11. I doubt this is true because Ruby was really open in the past when it came to relationships, so why would she need to hide now??

    1. You wont never know how many she revealed, how many she hide. Always have secrets in their private life.

      1. Time will tell, or not. Something will be a secret forever.

        Reporters can tell, or not, too.

      2. I don’t believe that things like this can ever truly be a secret forever… The truth will come out sooner or later…

      3. I’m sure always have something we won’t never know.

  12. Updates. From a fan forum, Ruby apparently sorta denied this whilst yes Wallace’s manager is keeping the I didn’t know about this stance. Ruby also has a home in Beijing near her studio. Wallace as usual is saying nothing but some fans saw him having tea with a woman. Surely if these 2 are dating we will see such sightings.

    Frankly, don’t know.

    1. All I can say is, time will tell all.Also, just because they are seen together at times does not necessarily imply that they are dating. They can just be 2 good friends hanging out together too.

  13. I have been waiting for them to get together for a very long time. Even if they stay as good friends, I would be happy.

  14. aww they seem cute together. even if this isnt true im happy they are good friends.
    it would be cute if they are together.

  15. They look good together. Congrat to both of them if they are really together. 🙂
