Disliked by Raymond Lam’s Family, Karena Ng’s Marriage Dreams are Dashed?
Dating for two years, Raymond Lam (林峯) and Karena Ng’s (吳千語) high profile relationship is still being met with frowns from the Lam family. Early rumors indicated that Raymond’s father, Lam Wah Kwok (林華國), highly disapproved of their relationship. However, Raymond promised to return to Xiamen to help manage the family business in exchange for marrying Karena.
Delays Leaving Acting Career and Marriage Plan
Although Raymond comes from a very wealthy family, with his father dubbed as the Lee Ka Shing (李嘉城) of Xiamen, Raymond wanted to venture out and not rely on family for money. To make sure he does not anger his father, Raymond often expressed that he will eventually have to leave the entertainment industry to focus on the family business. Despite these claims, Raymond has a strong passion for his career and has delayed retirement many times.
In a last attempt to get Raymond to come home, Lam Wah Kwok allowed Karena to date his son, and agreed to the proposed marriage plans. Unfortunately, the couple’s relationship is also met with disapproval from other members of the Lam family. Raymond’s younger brother, Rocky Lam (林逸洺), mocked Karena in his recent social media post. Caught between the two sides, Raymond put a halt to all marriage plans and shattered Karena’s dreams.
Protecting Assets is Key
Portrayed as materialistic and loving luxury designer labels, Karena’s dating relationship with Raymond faced an onslaught of negative rumors. Photographed going on luxurious vacations, Karena was targeted for her lavish spending, ever-growing designer handbag collection, and extravagant living style.
Believing these speculations, it was said that Lam Wah Kwok personally requested that Raymond and Karena sign a prenuptial agreement should they ever decide to get married. This was to prevent Karena from obtaining a portion of the Lam’s $2 billion HKD fortune if the couple were to file a divorce.
Defends Relationship and Raymond
Karena has continuously denied that her relationship with her future in-laws was severed. Coming to Raymond’s defense, Karena boldly stated, “I don’t really know. His (Raymond) career is not bad. In a lot of families now, the oldest son doesn’t always have to take over the father’s business; he can create his own empire.”
Both Karena and Raymond claim that the Lam family has been very encouraging. “This is not the only time news like this has been written. I’ve responded before. In reality, we all come together for dinner during holidays and we also talk on the phone,” Karena further provided.

Who wouldn’t disapprove of the relationship. The age difference is not the problem but the fact is she doesn’t have her own career but yet is relying and spending his money, it’s like a sugar daddy. All she does is follow him around and bother him from working.
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine. U make me happy, my skies are gray, so please dont take my sunshine away
This is the exact description of Kate Middleton. Point is after Karena marries Raymond she can’t have any career of her own. That’s the price. Or look at it this way; she is having a career. Raymond is her full time career, with perks of course.
Agree. The point is Karena will never be the next Kate Middleton. Also, Raymond is not William.
too bad Raymond has no royal blood in him.
Money is the new royalty
Kate Middleton didn’t come from a poor family by any means.
Karena Ng = Kate Middleton? What an absurd analogy! The Middleton family is among the UK’s newly rich families.
Also, she was no social-climbing ‘floosy’ coming after the royal throne; she and William were high school sweethearts.
On the other hand, no one (including his father) has said that Karena cannot have a career after marriage. I believe his sister is working.
“she and William were high school sweethearts.”
Not quite. University.
“Also, she was no social-climbing ‘floosy’ coming after the royal throne;”
Tell that to the mother Mrs Middleton. Kate was primed for this role.
Frankly speaking, Kate had no job, no career at all before her marriage into royal family. All she did was following William around, spending ten years to wait for him to marry her. Her mother even stepped in and asked William if he has any intention to marry her daughter. Neither Karena can be compared to Kate nor Kate can be compared to Queen Letizia of Spain.
I agree with what Funn Lim and Nori said. Kate Middleton is one lucky lady.
A lot of people actually say Kate Middleton was actually kind of stalker too.
Kate’s family is super wealthy. She didnt need to work. Her story is different to karena’s story. Im sure her family can give her more money than what William can. If you say for fame then maybe but definitely not for money.
After dating for so long anyone would be concern let alone her mother.
Oh definitely fame. People could be as rich as billionaire but they just cant become royalty. They either born or married into it.
Totally agreed with you.
Feel bad for Karena
I think any girl would be very happy to havea a man like Raymond Lam, at least I will. He comes from a wealthy family, he makes his own money, he has fame, he has the looks and he’s generous to her & loves her so much. I would like to think any girl would like this kind of men. But then again, getting married at her age is not a good idea, at least for me, I think she’s still too young. Anyway, time will tell if they’re meant for each other or not.
Wrong, I am a girl and I never find Raymond flat face attractive. Not in the past, not now, and not ever in the future.
So don’t assume “any girl” would fall for him. LMFAO!
He is good looking and i love watching him and his expressions in dramas! they are so cute <3 im a girl, i love him like that, but dont know why, i dont think i will fall for him.
I’m with you on this.
With leilafan I mean!
To LeilaFan,
I think you didnt finish reading what I wrote. I didnt say only his face and I dont expect everyone would find him attractive, surely there’ll be some girls who don’t like him, but I would most people, some ppl might not find him good looking but they may be attracted to his fame for example. He’s definitely not bad looking, just not your type that’s all.
He looks freaky with the Frankenstein shape face. Raymond boy is the type that likes to play (acting, singing, and playing hard to get). He has the cash to back him up. LOL! 😀
Same lol xD
I think there is more to attract the girls than his fame and money. How the man act, his attitude is what make girl dreamy. That’s why the korean drama build around those, sure, they generally chick fame and look in. But w.o the attitudes and how he acts in various situation, no one would find them dreamy :p
Do’t make a huge issue out of a prenuptial. It is standard, especially amongst the super rich.
And if the family don’t really like Karena, no way there will be talks about prenuptials.
and the best way to prevent Karena from getting a cent from the family’s money? Cut Raymond out of the Will. Karena then can fight for her share out of Raymond’s own pocket which will be considerably lesser than his dad’s fortune.
Wow Raymond is really going to leave his passion of acting and singing to go back to work for his fam, just for them the approve of Karena. WOW why don’t he just do what he wants to do, once he get married and she has his baby, the family will most likely adore the child and forgive her! Whoo sounds like a chinese series lol!
I doubt it. His brother will run the company. Ray doesn’t strike me as business savvy
P/s see Isabella leong on the baby thing
True. She might as well just get pregnant then she might be approved by his family. I just dont get it. If you LOVE your boyfriend so you kinda need to endure the in-law family who does NOT approve of you is one thing but some ladies who would do anything to just married into rich even the boyfriends/husbands’ family HATE and look down on them. Why would you do that? I know MONEY is very important but its not the only thing that matters in the world.
that is how deborah forgive nic tse with regards to his secret wedding – the birth of lucas – according to nic tse from an old interview
Oh wow really? No wonder there are quite a few girls who would get pregnant intentionally.
Actually, I dont know if a few of my cousins-in-law did that intentionally or now but 3 of my cousins got married because their girlfriends got pregnant. My cousins’s parents are not super rich or anything but they are RICHER than their girlfriends’ families thats for sure. One ended up in divorce though.
Cecilia also supposedly bribed her MIL with designer handbags, and always had to do a lot of accomodating.
Does Deborah seem the type to be warm cuddly, forgiving? Or the tigress social-climber type, who always wants to be seen decked out in twin-outfits (with her puppet spouse Kong) at all the parties in town?
Jay Leno chin girl Karena, BORING! Yawnn..
Nobody care but Karena Ng, Raymond Lam and his family.
I still don’t understand why media is hunting them down like mad dog.
My first reaction was: Who cares about Karena’s marriage plans? LOL
Good thing in this modern age,real love between 2 person have nothing to do with their respective family members. If Raymond really loves Karena and won’t marry Karena because of his family disapproval (if we accepts tabloid version as truth) then he doesn’t deserve Karena’s love. Based on what Karena have said to media regarding her relationship with Raymond in many instances it seems she is a very nice and understandable person with very matured personality. Karena is a beautiful lady and she will find love again if Raymond turns out to be a mammy’s boy.
Hi Tom,
Yes, a lot of people still disregard what the family has to say, even objections and go ahead with the marriage. Of course some family starts to accept but some not. It really depends from family to family. It’s not quite true that marriage it’s between 2 persons, it’s more than that. In reality, marriage actually involves 2 families. I’ve seen a lot of couples quarrel or had disagreement some from minor to major because of respective family’s issues.
Yes, for this case, I feel Raymond Lam would still go ahead to marry Karena even if his family is objecting it, that’s my feeling.
I can’t help but think of how Karena ditched her boyfriend to accept Raymond. That sounds like a gold-digger to me!
Yes 99% of the people would agree with you.
Who is Karena’s ex? Is he someone in the e-circle?
Her ex is the son of Ellen Wong, 2nd RU at MSHK 1985. If I remember correctly, they were dating for 2 years until they broke up in August or September of 2012. That was before they were reportedly dating in July 2012.
I feel very sorry for him. Those liars cheated on him and the girl was playing the victim card.
Can people just leaving celebrities alone on their personal lives?! What is wrong with a boyfriend buying gifts for his girlfriend. Raymond makes a lot of money, so he buys her nice things, it is all relative! Karena works too, so she could have bought some items herself.
She seems to be more than mature enough for Raymond despite the age difference. He even said that before. As long as they are happy, I am happy for them.
“Karena works too, so she could have bought some items herself.”
True. But she is not buying things from Ikea is she?
All she cares is Hermes, Gucci, Chanel, and all the luxury brands. Swiping his credit card is better than taking out her own wallet. I will not believe what artistes say after Andy Lau’s famous statement lol. And hmm, didn’t Raymond lie to his fans and the media too?
“after Andy Lau’s famous statement lol.”
What did he say?
His statement was:
“I will tell all you guys when I get married.”
All you guys include fans and the media.
However, he got married in August, four months after making that statement but he didn’t come out public.
Raymond was also untruthful to his fans and to he media, although he admitted it later lol but the damage has already been done. I’ve heard from my friends that he lost a lot of fans over these 2 years. A close friend of mine is friends with a number of his fanclub members. They have since dropped out of his fanclub and the fan club membership has dropped to an all time low…….
If Raymond handled his relationship in a smarter way, he wouldn’t generate so much hate from his fans and from the media. He and of course Karena are the ones to blame.
“True. But she is not buying things from Ikea is she?”
LOL!
Why should anyone care what Raymond or Karena buy or gift each other! Can’t the press just report on real “entertainment news” and leave some privacy for the artists! No need to “speculate” or make up headlines/stories to sell their rags! So pitiful and unethical.
No wonder Andy Lau and Wu Chun kept their marriages a secret. Artists do not owe the public every morsel of their private life!
“A close friend of mine is friends with a number of his fanclub members. They have since dropped out of his fanclub and the fan club membership has dropped to an all time low……”
Is it really that low?
Have you not seen some web forums, people constantly hating Raymond Lam and Karena in the past couple years?
Why does everyone thinks karena is useless and a gold digger. Is all she can do is just shopping and spending money?
Pretty much lol. She said she has filming work but I haven’t noticed any of her “famous works.” Even the news media asks her about her relationship more than her works. She really has no news value except for her relationship.
Yeah I agree with Agnes! Her acting career isn’t really going anywhere! She has no know representative works, her acting is mediocre all she has is her so called “unique” beauty & Raymond Lam pampering her like a princess!
It’s not even about the age difference anymore! She doesn’t even try to hide her materialistic living style…
They will 100% get divorce after they eventually marry I don’t see them lasting long!
I was wondering the same thing, what does this girl do besides dating Raymond Lam?
@Andrew
You got it a bit wrong.
Andy made that statement before, and after he was married. He even made it weeks before his father-in-law died. He even threatened. various individuals with lawsuits if they continued to say such things about him.
Were you trying to reply to my other post? Anyway, I’m not sure when he said it since he got married few years ago.. But I remember that the press found his marriage certificate online, with Leon and Miriam’s…. Talking about honesty……..
Boy you never pass up a chance to blast Andy do you? Did he do something to you? Also Andy is not the only one that has done that.Many other artists have done that,but yet you always target Andy. Strange how you can hate a person that you do not even know personally so very much.
@HeTheiShou,maybe he/she knows andy,you never know,because you dont know he/she,maybe andy did terrible things to he/she, you never know because you dont know he/she,lol.
@chesesecake,
Even so,it does not give him or anyone the right to go spreading hate towards anyone. I have heard so many posters on forums and online say they know such and such but in the end,it all ended up being BS. I remember a poster here saying they knew Aimee and how she was not into Moses and did not like him much.,However, they are happily married and has a son now. People who claim to know celebs usually have only met them a few times. I wonder is that considered actually,”knowing” Tammy particular person? You can know someone your whole life and not know them well,but someone you only know to some limited extent,how can you truly know them? But of course if you hate anyone,you will focus on their bad traits only and disregard all of their good traits.
Meant to,say any particular person
Nothing new from the media whether to believe or not upto each individual….always a gossip is this a breaking news. .
Quick quick get pregnant!
She has a wonky smile…
So reading the article, it mentioned how his dad noticed her getting all these super expensive bags from RL just made me realized that Karena was kinda greedy and dump. She should have not let RL spent all these money on luxury bags for her and at least pretended to be frugal so his dad might consider her LOL. But who could resist the temptation of luxury designer handbags? Obviously young Karena cant.
LMAO!!
@ sophia:
Agree – Karena should have played her cards right.
Accept ONE designer bag … maybe.
But to change her whole lifestyle = that just shows leeching and greed, without ANY capability of her own except of course, to snare a man.
i am LF’s big fans…whatever make LF happy…i will support! Best them the best…it is always those make up news! I am living with his father…how would we know whether LF’s father approve or not…another nonsense news!
What if he’s not happy?
Gold digger. Buying her a car for her and everything. I have never heard of Karena once in my life before RL started to date her.She wants the fame. 14 years of difference is alot like Karena is still a young adult. I dont like them together.
I know a lot of people that dislike and hate them…. And I’m talking a lot lol.
Tell me about it. All she is famous for was because she is with Raymond Lam.
Whether we like Karena or not, it is Raymond’s money that he is spending on her. The last time I checked, he did not need the family money to spend on Karena, cause he makes enough on his own.
Why is it that netizens are willing to believe everything they read about Karena and other celebs they do not like, but are ready to kill anyone who dares to speaks negatively about their gods , accusing the person or persons of lying.
I had always heard that Raymonds dad is a controlling monster, and it seems to be true. Raymond does not need to promise his father that he will run the family business in exchange for his dads ‘permission to date Karena, like this article mentioned. Hello Mr Lam, we are in the 21st century,, not the 12th. Take your anceint China s-h-I-t and get lost. Raymond dos not need your permission to do anything.
Agreed! Raymond makes a lot of money on his own, hats off to him for loving and protecting his girl despite all the negativity. He is truly a man! How lucky for Karena. And also for Raymond, who has Karena on his side.
Two years together but often facing criticism on something which is no one else’s business is so very difficult. Bravo for them! As long as they are happy together, why can’t people stop scrutinizing every little bit of their lives!
Trini,
I find it funny how you are defending Karena and Raymond but yet you blast others that you hate, but hey,that goes for everyone.if you hate anyone,you will believe all of the bad things that is written,and said.However, if you like them then you will defend them at all costs. That is bias which is something we all have whether we admit it or not.
HeTie|Shou
What makes you so sure that I do not know Andy Lau??
Oh wait, he is so above all of us that a little peasant like me could not even get near him to lick his boots, haha.
There are many celebs who I don’t fancy but yet still I have defended, and there are some who |I do like and I have reamed them out. I don’t idol worship. You have saidhow there is this celeb who you don’t like or respect anymore because he lied to the fans constantly. No one has done that more than Andy, and he still continues to deceive and belittle his fans or “family” as he calls them, and yet you are ready to kill for him. How ironic is that. You are in no position to say the things you said to me. I am done.
Trini,
Honestly,even if you did know Andy,for you to go around constantly spreading hate towards him does not make you a good person either. I used to really like Jimmy Lin for example and he lied through his teeth,but with time I got over it and moved on. But you continue your quest with hating Andy. It is like you have some obsession with hating him or something, if you truly knew him,you should know his good traits too but all you do is reflect on his negative traits. You are just a hater so of course your opinion is bias. I have learned to be more understanding when celebs lie. If they have good reasons then I can understand,but of course it does not mean that I agree with the things they do. Why can’t I say those things to you? If do,then who are you to say those things about Andy or anyone?
It us not just Andy,but the things you say about Wu Chun, Leehom and many others are really mean and honestly cruel. I doubt that you know them all and honestly even if you did I doubt you know them well enough to,say the things you do. You can know someone your whole life and not know them well.
To Trini,
I didn’t manage to read what you had posted earlier on about Andy Lau but I did read some from HeTieShou posted. I don’t know what makes you wrote Andy Lau is a hypocrite, was it because he kept his marriage under wraps? If this is what makes you said that I feel you’re a fanatic fan of some celebrities out there. Andy Lau’s fans are mostly women and I’m sure you would agree that some fans go overboard by liking some idol. A lot of celebrities dont want to share their personal life especially their marriage because they’re fearful they will lose their fans as they know those fans love them excessively. Andy Lau wasnt the only one that kept his marriage as a secret but I thought a lot of ppl would have suspected that he and Carol Chu are together? So, whether they actually registered or not is not that important, Andy Lau is a very faithful person from what I feel. He seems to be nice and down to earth so I had no idea why you seemed to hate him so much. There are worst celebrities out there.
@Bloom
I knew for many years that Carol was drifting on and off through Andy’s life and I knew that he was married. I have my reasons for calling him a hypocrite. I am not a fan, never was, so let me get that straight. I am not a girl, happily married, so not into men, hahaha. I am not a fanatic of any celebrity ,as all are human and they have a lot of faults and skeletons in their closets. They do a lot of horrible immoral things because they believe they are above human, they have money and fame so they believe they have a free pass to do as they wish. I know what I am talking about. The celebrity that I will get fanatical about is not born yet, not yet.
If a celeb does not want to admit their relationship in a public manner, that is fine, just don’t insult the fans by saying, you are family, I will tell you when I get married, I have not found anyone suitable enough to marry yet, I am going home alone to sleep because Ido not have a girlfriend. On top of that, threaten legal lawsuits to people who persist in printing that this individual is married. Have found the perfect act to be such a philanthropist, caring, giving individual who loves his fans like family because it works, it gives him fame and fortune beyond words. Andy that everyone sees and Andy who comes across as doing all this good is a fraudulent act. The man is a pretending hypocrite. There are stages in his life I won’t even get into. A nasty piece of work. What is sad is a lot of you guys worship him and think he is so caring, so giving, so faithful, so perfect. Yes he gives, he donates, he will bend over backward tolook after others in public, showing sympathy and care, even to the beggar on the street, but it is part of the image, the image that makes him the idol who everyone thinks is God.
@Trini, well said. If only more people could see thru him! I always wonder why they can’t.
Hi Trini,
Thanks for clarification that you’re a guy 🙂
I wasn’t a fan of Andy Lau either. But let’s be fair, not only him ever lied to fans. If I remember correctly Leon Lai did exactly the same, he was married and he did say similar things. Celebrities are human beings too, they lie, I lied too but I guess most ppl like audience dont want to accept an artists that lies. But then again they are human and like I wrote earlier, all of us lied in some ways or the other. I guess in life, sometimes in some condition we had to do something against our wishes like being superficial. I woould like to think that some celebrities like Andy Lau doesnt’ want to upset his fans whom are almost 100% women (mostly fanatic) maybe these ppl idiolise him and wanting to marry him…. Anyway, none of us are perfect, we’ve greed, we’re selfish in some ways etc etc. Never perfect. I honestly don’t know Andy Lau in person so I don’t know whether he’s a hypocrite or not but so far yes, he does potray a clean image at least to me.
I think like 20yrs back my ex-colleague told me that Andy Lau was having dinner at Shangrila KL with Carol Chu’s family. Their relationship could be longer than that. Even if they were not married, they already lead a life like married couple, cohabit the only difference is they didnt have any official registration as husband & wife nor they could announce to the world.
Well said @Princess.
HETIESHOU
you are entitled to believe if I know these people or not. The truth hurts. It is not about being mean, it is about being honest.Keep worshipping your beloved Andy, the biggest hypocrite, the most lying and vain and shallow of them all. The one who has more to hide than any other Asian celeb, and the one who belittles and insults his fans more than any other Asian celeb. the man is a piece of nasty work, and someday, coming soon, he will be exposed. That is all I will say.
RL’s dad wants him back to run the family business. Karena publicly states that she thinks RL can build his own empire. Losing points with the in-laws with that one…
If I am Raymond Lam Fung’s younger brother, better still, since big brother doesn’t want to come back to work. Then as the other male in the Lam family, younger brother will rightfully inherit the multi-billions Renminbi (RMB yuan) business from dad.
I’d rather be a business owner, lands owner, buildings owner anytime, than memorize song lyrics, acting scripts, and dance choreographies. Since it is Lam Fung choice of career let him be. Don’t waste time to nag him anymore. He is old enough to think what he wants for his future. Daddy should let him go. Let it go, let it go…
Let younger brother be a successful Donald Trump, Wang Jian Lin (No. 1 Richest Man in China), Li Ka Shing (No. 1 Richest Man in HK & Richest Chinese Man in the World), Lee Shau Kee (No. 2 Richest Man in HK). All are successful, powerful, reputable billionaires property tycoons. I support Younger Brother be a property magnate heir himself. I would want to create a harmonious, affordable, good living environment and homes for people. To help people faster to be home owner, a more meaningful purpose in life. At least for me. If only I have such father…
Let Raymond Lam Fung dance all he wants, sing and act till his old age.
Hahahah! Reverse psychology.
How true.
Go with his flow – as a test of his love, just cut him out of the entire family inheritance. Karena can live off his earnings too, as a test of endurance.
Let him be with his choice of partner, and sing/dance/act until his old age.
Proof that his younger brother rocky really love his older brother raymond. Big bro , you need to wake up
As a female, I would never let a guy spend that much on presents for me…. It doesn’t matter that he makes a lot; or that he has family money… it just doesn’t feel right to accept presents like that from a bf…
To Dr M,
I’m like you, I honestly feel it’s not nice to make a guy spend so much on me. So, my guy friends know, they always tell me that women dont have to pay and it’s their job, they’re from old school. But I told them I shouldn’t be sitting back and letting them pay all the time. So once a while, I offer to pick up the bill and they allowed. If I wanted to go to somewhere nicer with nice ambience, I always get ready to snatch the bill to pay. Think about it, I hardly made any guys to buy me gift and never once accepted any vacations from them.
Dr M, actually there are a lot of girls these days that are looking for men like Raymond Lam. Rich, I mean. One of my friends, she doesn’t want to work but she continuously live with the money her boyfriends give to her. She told us that she doesn’t love them and hated herself especially when she had sex with them. She was only using them for their money, once she gets enough money, she will dump them.
Eventhough this actress, Karena Lam has her own income but that doesnt mean she doesnt like Raymond to spend on her. I would say most women likes men to spend on them especially on gifts and expensive holidays, cars, house you name it. Some of them feel it’s the mens duty to do so i.e. to provide, but unfortunately not all men are so generous and also has so much excess I would say.
Yup, you have generous guy friends. Good for you.
Girls nowadays are independence and some make much more than the guys. As for your friend there, she’s lazy and has very little self esteem. Just a dumb girl selling sex. She isn’t the one that use them it’s vice versa. LOL! 😀
Same goes for men. Men shouldn’t take advantage (like “free” sex) of women either. Actually, it’s “dumb” for women to let men have sex for “free/cheap”. Otherwise, it makes it very “affordable” for them to have sex with tons of women.
Dumb and dumber. LOL! 😀
To Kiwi,
No, I don’t have rich friends, some are okay, even if they’re rich, it has nothing to do with me as I’m always independent.
That girlfriend of mine recently told me and another girlfriend that she cant work because of sun & rain. I cant stand that comment and said none of us like to work but we didnt have any choice, I’ve lots of commitments and bills to settle so I cant afford to not working. And the idea of getting a man for money, it’s a big no-no for me, anyway, I’m no longer young. I dont want to lead such life. Sometimes there were times I was really down at work, with colleagues and boss, sometimes I wish I had someone that I can depend on. But then again, it’s not a good idea, no free lunch. Anyway, I’ve to continue with my girlfriend story. She has this Mr X close to 50 yrs old coming to her house on a weekly basis to help her do housework. I dont know what he really did but I know he helped her wash her toilets. She is a divorcee with 4 children and this friend of mine love partying. Her 1st & 2nd daughter are quite grown up so they can look after her youngest son around 5 yrs old while she goes out party sometimes to wee hours. This guy friend of hers have been diligently paying her like USD2K a month to support her since she’s not working. I felt this man is very pathetic because at his age, he doesnt have a house nor car because he doesnt really earn a lot. He gaves her almost like 90% of his earnings. My friend has no feelings for him at all, when she told us that she plans to dump him like in a year or 2 I felt even more pain for this guy. He basically has nothing, it’s not fair for her to treat him that way. She has no empathy for him, at least there must be some gratefulness I told her. She was angry with my comment and our relationship is strained. I didnt regret, yes, maybe I was being busy body because I’ve only met Mr X once and she didnt treat him with respect. It was none of my business anyway, but then again, I hope anyone who reads this dont do this kind of thing to anyone. It’s not good to hurt someone whom treated us with sincerity and kindness I feel.
“Dumb and dumber.”
If “Dumb” and “Dumber” hooked up, it may actually be a match made in heaven. haha 🙂
Also a match made in hell. LOL! 😀
If RL is stupid enough to be conned by such a woman, he really should not be made heir to the business. He might just end up bankrupting the business with his stupidity. But of course, if I am a competitor, I would very much love to have him “ascend the throne” since he is so indulgent and infatuated with this woman, she would become his biggest weakness.
To Rika,
It’s not stupid, it’s quite true that love is blind. Raymond is really head over heels of this girl and perhaps he felt that he has already found his true love. Alot of men actually don’t mind spending money on girls like shopping and travels.
Indeed, a lot of men spend lavishly on women thinking that it is the only way to capture their hearts. When they overspend and end up heavily in debts, the women leave them for other men. I know someone in real life who fell into the same problem and he is now leading a terribly miserable life. Anyway, that’s his problem since he DID after all, stupidly chose such a path.
Love is blind and it also makes you stupid. LOL! 😀
To Rika,
It’s strange sometimes how we think the opposite will think. I think I’m different, I dont make men spend on me, if I like them then the more I wont let them spend on me. I must admit that I love to receive gift but then again I would feel very guilty and uneasy if an ordinary friend were to give something to me.
Men should know that if the girl truly cares for him, they wont make them spend unnecessarily or should I just write burnt their pocket? You may think that I’m silly, I dont want to owe anyone too excessively and what if I’ve to pay them back the next life.
LOL! 😀
@bloom Not every girl thinks like that. I have an ex female colleague who insisted that her boyfriend MUST at least get her a branded bag every 2 months.
Back on topic, Karena is obviously enjoying the rich and luxurious lifestyle which she never had in her upbringing. Like what some other posters mentioned before; she practically made a career out of him. Of course, it’s RL’s prerogative to spend all his money on her but my point remains that his father should think twice about handing the business to him. Traditions have it that the oldest son should inherit the legacy but we all know that there are few family businesses that could stand the test of time. The Lams are no Rothschilds. Whether the business that RL’s aging father had poured his entire lifetime building could remain for the next decade all depends upon his selection of the appropriate heir.
Lion open it’s mouth. The Lams are no old money for sure. Raymond is a rotten child. LOL! 😀
Hi Rika,
I’ve heard something similar too. Actually it’s quite common for a lot of girls these days to be extremely materialistic. I work for a caucasian company, once a caucasian mentioned to me that all chinese are like that. Care so much of the outsider (on the surface) always ensure they are having brandeds but struggle, some lives in flats or cant even afford a car. I’ve heard a lot of girls save their earnings just to buy a branded bag (they think it’s branded example like coach) but to me those are no longer branded because you honestly see it on a lot of ppl now. What you wrote about your ex-colleague reminded me of this conversation I heard when I was working in another firm. One morning I overheard all these males colleagues talking about buying diamond rings for their girlfriends. Out of curiousity I asked them they’re so generous, they said no choice because the girlfriends are comparing with their friends, if the guy dont buy you diamonds that means he doesnt love you! I think this is rubbish, how much can you please a girl? Yes, dating you may want to please her, but can you continue to do so after marriage, after having kids? I guess we’ve to be realistic, having diamond or branded of course is nice, but it’s not a necessity and furthermore we shouldnt use it as a tool to measure the love. If the guy loves you a lot but he just cant afford that doesnt mean he doesnt love you.
Sorry for writing so much.
Coming back to Karena, yes, I’m sure she was swept by the love (in terms of attention from Raymond, the media) the branded bags, clothes, shoes, stones, luxurious holidays, or even cars and cash.
who know the news is real or not, if lam ‘s family really disliked karena, i don’t think raymond & karena will not admit it. they will not stupid to admit at public.
Absolutely! If his brother really likes her, he would’ve followed her but he doesn’t. This goes to show how well liked she is lol.
Can a girl like name brand items without being labeled a gold digger? Heck if my bf were a millioaire I’d be happy if he were generous enough to buy me nice things. Plus when looking for a bf/hubby who doesn’t look at income/education as well as physical appearance and personality.
“Can a girl like name brand items without being labeled a gold digger?”
Yes, when you pay all the items yourself.
Well said Rika.
Agreed!
LOL! 😀
Dont care about dad’s inheritance, go make your own empire. I bet your dad will proud of you
hi there
1. honest, what a big deal about two individuals into a relationship thing.
2. just leave them alone.
3. so what if family members disapprove or what.
4. just another big yawn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
She is hot and ray should just marry her and get it over with.
She is not hot at all lol. She has no bust and skinny to the bone. Don’t get her facially at all, cute at best.
Raymond Lam’s taste is really the poorest out of all TVB’s siu sheng, Ron Ng and Bosco Wong (referring to Myolie of course) and Kevin Cheng pick the better girls.
Some many hot girls in TVB – Late, Linda, Eliza, etc. for him to choose and he chooses a gold digger. LMAO!!! Any girls in the Mclub are better than her! LMAO!
“So many hot girls in TVB – Late, Linda, Eliza, etc. for him to choose and he chooses a gold digger. LMAO!!! Any girls in the MClub are better than her! LMAO!”
Totally agree!!!
Some people just want sex (not a decent women). So what if she “expects” him to build his own “empire”. haha 🙂
Excuse my typos MW. I meant to say so many hot girls and any of the girls in MClub look better than her. Great you understood what I wrote.
No biggie. Reading for content/context often allows one to overlook slight oversights.
What’s wrong with a man that has the money and can splurge on his girlfriend? You guys can’t expect the rich to marry rich or dating right? Love can happen to any age or ethnicity. Just because she is. It as rich as him or as famous you guys call her a gold digger?? Shame on you guys for being prejudice.
why do i have a feeling that raymond will be put on the spot and have to choose between woman or empire (family wealth) (gong shan ran shi mei ren)
..though hopefully he doesn’t have to get to that point!
but im not surprised at the opposing of this relationship! as many of you has said, she doesnt even have a career! does she actually love him? or his money? =\
Raymond is probably with her to p-iss off his family.
