Gallen Lo and Sophie Su Ready for Baby’s Birth
Gallen Lo (羅嘉良) and Sophie Su (蘇岩) remained happily in love since their marriage in 2009. Often sharing their blissful love relationship on social networks, the couple announced last October that they are expecting their first child together. Gallen had since reduced his workload to care for his wife, responding to her needs on a 24/7 basis.
On Monday evening, Gallen and Sophie were caught baby shopping in Causeway Bay, Hong Kong. The expectant parents held hands tightly and appeared cheerful despite the presence of reporters. Wearing a loose maternity dress and flat-soled shoes, Sophie strolled cautiously with her heavy eight-month belly. The couple continued to flaunt their love publicly, revealing matching tattoos on their left ankles. Gallen even wore a pin that was made with the couple’s loving photo.
The two visited several baby supply and clothing shops but left empty-handed. Gallen and Sophie shopped mainly for pink and white-colored dresses and accessories, fueling speculations that they are expecting a daughter. When asked whether they know the sex of the baby, Gallen replied that they do but will not tell.
They continued their shopping spree, stopping briefly to ask reporters to help them locate Hilary Tsui (徐濠縈)’s fashion store Liger. Gallen stated that he is good friends with Hilary’s husband, Eason Chan (陳奕迅), and heard that Liger carried nice dresses. Gallen posed for photos before heading into the store, hoping Eason will see them and know that he was there.
A Second Time Father
Fifty-year-old Gallen has one son from his previous marriage. He and ex-wife Clare Fong (方敏儀) separated in 2008 after being together for 28 years, in which they were married for 10 years. Gallen relinquished custody of his son to his ex-wife, and left them a condo worth $40 million HKD.
The same year, Gallen met current wife Sophie on the set of their mainland drama Perfect Ending <完美結局>. Gallen and Sophie quickly fell in love and married in 2009 after dating for four months. Since his marriage, Gallen focused solely on his mainland career and gradually faded from Hong Kong’s entertainment industry. Currently, Gallen has put his career on hold to take care of his wife, who is expected to give birth sometime in May.

wow. he’s so rich
so happy for him & Soph!!!!
I wonder if he still cares for his son from his 1st marriage. poor thing
Surely this must be Sean Lennon to Julian Lennon sort of situation?
nah… I’m feeling sorry for his ex wife and son… so pity..
I hope the new baby arrives safely.
And I pray that God would watch over his first wife and son.
That is the nicest and sweetest comment I’ve ever come across.
God Bless.
was he this public with his first wife? I don’t think so.
Here’s an idea, maybe she didn’t WANT to be in the limelight? Su Yan and Gallen are both celebrities. If they want to be public, who really cares?
When I say he wasn’t public .. I didn’t mean to reveal herself. There’s other ways to publicly profess his love for her without pushing her into the limelight. If you haven’t noticed, he’s on extreme high profile when Sophia Su was three months pregnant. He acts like as if he’s a first time father when news broke out. He totally neglects his first child. What, throwing some lump sum of cash on a condo for your ex wife and child is going to make you a decent father?
Agree with @uni!
Nothing wrong with getting a divorce and moving on with your life, but you divorce your spouse, not your kids. Why would any woman want to marry and have a kid with his man?
Wow, I didn’t realize you know every detail about this man’s life and his relationship with his first wife and son.
People hating on this couple need to get a grip.
Why does making a comment have to be about hating? Quit with the hating and hater crap. It’s not about that.
I don’t know every detail of this man’s life (nor do I want to), but like I said, adults need to realize that a divorce is between the husband and wife, not the parent and children. And from what I have read about him in the past, it does not seem like he’s involved in his first son’s life. Skype and telephone conversations don’t count as being involved. Logically speaking, if he’s in Mainland China all the time, and his son is in HK, one does not have to know ‘every detail’ about his life to deduce that he’s not there a lot for first his son. Or, for the hopefuls out there, maybe he flies back to HK every other day to see his son, right?!?
I am guessing maybe he married his first wife out of gratitude and not love so the marriage did not last for life?? With his current wife, it was more out of love so he seems a lot happier and is more blissful.But regardless of how he felt towards his first wife, he should not neglect his son.
Has it occurred to you or anyone judging Gallen Lo that maybe his ex wife didn’t want Gallen Lo in his son’s life? Nobody really knows what goes on in these celebrities’ lives and shouldn’t jump to conclusions and make accusations on what goes on in their personal lives – especially when you don’t know the full details.
Happy for Gallen and his wife. May she have a safe delivery and healthy baby!
As for his first wife.. we don’t know much about their relationship so why are people so judgmental?
“Often sharing their blissful love relationship on social networks”
did he ever consider the feeling of his ex wife n his son?the ex wife spent all her youth for him-28years!!gosh.the least he can do is to minimize her and their son hurt by not go publicly show how happy n blissful he is with his new marriage.the first wife spent all her youth dedicated to him.damn.
Agree.
I know, OMG 28 years???? I know they have been together since like forever but 28 years? MY GOD, that’s long. I remember how everyone was thinking back then, he is a forever kind of will not change kind of guy haha..Indeed sadding for those first wives who wasted all that youth when he was apparently a nobody and when they became a somebody, it’s usually ‘GOODBYE’ sigh…
WOW, they were together for that long?? Ok, I can’t believe that he showing his blissfulness and happiness in such a high profile manner then. It is like he is rubbing it in their face then.I can’t believe he has the heart do that.
very true. AGREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
not good to have tattoo on any part of our body, it’s a ticket to hell
Gallen forever!
Even though you may think of Gallen negatively as a person but there’s no denying that he’s talented, that’s what’s most important.
It is true that we should not judge his ex wife and his past relationship since we aren’t sure of what really happened. However, I think many are just against him for neglecting his son which is his own blood. I really wonder if he was that happy over his first son’s birth and all??? But with this child he is going overboard with the celebrating and all that… I feel bad for his son the most and really wonder how he is feeling that his own father is happy about his to be half siblings birth and possibly neglecting him like he does not even exist.
Yes, that’s what i always say. You can be a S****Y husband ex husband or whatever you are but neglecting his son and making excuses like ‘ too busy at work, felt out of touch, felt apart b/c we got divorced ‘ BULLS*** OK haha LOL..
If you care, you will MAKE the time for your first born no matter how bad of a relationship you have w/ur ex. And now all these facebook and twittering, all we hear is him talking about how happy he is w/his current life???
OMG… Not a good man in anyone’s book. IMO of course…
But then again, maybe it is more complicated then we think?? Since he and his ex may not be on good terms, what if she restricted him from seeing his son?? That can be a possibility… But I guess if he loves his son, he can still try and not give up since he is his father afterall and nothing can change that…
Is his wife from China…?
yes, she is
