Aimee Chan is Expecting Twins?
Today, Moses Chan (陳豪) left for Toronto, Canada to prepare for his and wife Aimee Chan’s (陳茵媺) wedding banquet scheduled for July 17. Since getting married in June, Moses has been in high spirits but he remained vague about Aimee’s pregnancy. Recently, new rumors surfaced that the couple may be expecting twins. Moses was surprised by the reports and denied knowledge of the baby’s gender. He added that he and Aimee are unlikely to post photos of their upcoming celebrations and wish to maintain a low profile.
Moses was seen at the Hong Kong airport around 3:45 p.m. on July 15, accompanied by his manager and elder brother. Many airport employees and travelers surrounded Moses to ask for photos and to congratulate the actor on his recent marriage.
About banquet preparations, Moses said, “There is not much to prepare for. I am ready to be in a good mood.” When asked if he will be bringing any nourishment for Aimee, Moses said that there is no need to bring items from Hong Kong since they can purchase everything locally in Toronto. Reporters then asked if he is nervous. Moses joked, “I wasn’t nervous at first, but I am now after seeing all of you here. I was planning to quietly eat a meal [before the flight], and am shocked that so many people came to send me off… but I do feel very happy.”
Moses shared that he spoke to Aimee via phone the night before, and that she is doing well. He added that Aimee’s parents are caring for her every day and that his own family is already in Toronto.
Since he wants to keep the celebrations low profile, Moses did not reveal the length of his trip nor any details about the banquet. He hopes that his guests will enjoy the party, and shared that he and Aimee will not wear traditional Chinese wedding outfits, but will instead go for more casual styles.
Regarding recent reports that Aimee may be carrying twins, Moses laughed and said, “I don’t know. I didn’t get any notification. I am also curious and want to know. Will I accompany Aimee to doctor’s appointments? That will depend on the situation.” When asked if he will bring Aimee along when he returns to Hong Kong, Moses said simply, “We will see.”
Reporters then urged Moses to keep them informed about his return date and the baby’s gender, and asked him to post photos from the banquet. Moses thanked reporters for their concerns, but emphasized again that he wants to maintain a low profile. “If someone is able to snap a photo [and post it online], there is not much I can do. Personally, we have no plans to post any pictures on Weibo.”

It seems that not many readers like Aimee Chan. There are so few comments submitted on the articles about her.
On the other hand, many readers support Christine Kuo (also from Toronto) whose acting is so inferior compared to Aimee’s. There were at least 40 to 50 comments posted just about Christine’s overweight. Poor Aimee!
It’s not the quantity, its the quality.
40 to 50 negatives comments, you want?
I like Aimee, I don’t like Christine Kuo, but I posted there more than 1 comment, here, in Aimee’s story, I don’t until i see your post.
That does not mean I like Christine… coz, I don’t. Poor Christine.
I think it is better to not have any comments rather than have a whole load of negative comments.
Because not many people hate or like Aimee. Aimee is neutral for many people, so not many people care. Christine, on the other hand, is hated by many people, so many people care.
The same thing happens if a person is liked by many people, so many people care about the person. People care when they hate or like something. All the people that commented in jaynestars care, and that’s why they commented.
Personally I think Aimee Chan is a much better actress than Christine Kuo. Aimee never had that many gossips and rumours, and she acts better.
I am happy for Aimee for getting a good husband, Moses Chan, but feel sorry for her that she has to give up her career at her prime time (when TVB promoted her highly)
I feel like if Aimee And Moses Chan never revealed their relationship, she wouldn’t even get that much exposure.
It could be true. If you were in Aimee’s position, you would have done same. If she got more exposure, she could get better promotions by TVB. Why not? Anyway I think she also worked very hard in her acting skills and Cantonese.
In fact, Bernice Liu did the same. If she was not dating Moses at that time, her popularity would be less. TVB promoted her highly because of her relationship with Moses Chan. TVB just took the opportunity to promote her more.
I think Aimee would have been promoted too even if she didn’t date Moses. Remember Burning Flame 3 and Master of Play (just to name a few) she was already the 2nd lead actress in those, and those series was filmed before she and Moses got together.
I think Aimee had the potential to be a 1st lead or at least 2nd lead actress no matter she dated Moses Chan or not. First, she has a pretty face, sweet smile, pleasant personality for many types of characters. Secondly, she did well in “Burning Flame 3” and “Off Pedder Street”, and “Master of Play”. Due to the shortage of fadans, she should be one of the new actresses to be highly promoted by TVB anyway. Her only drawback is her Cantonese, but it is still better than those Mandarin-speaking actresses.
Her relationship with Moses might have sped up the promotions by TVB only.
Some fadans are not good for ancient drama series, but Aimee can handle both once her Cantonese gets better. She did okay in “The Confidant” though not great. She needs to speak her Cantonese clearer and slower, especially in ancient drama series. It is very hard for her if she does not understand any classical Chinese. It will take her some time to understand and digest it. If she could handle Chow Yuk Ming’s “flying paper script” in “Master of Play”, she will be able to overcome her future obstacles sooner or later.
Aimee worked very hard to improve her acting skills in the last few years. I could see her improvements in recent drama series.
Improvement, yes. But her acting is still inferior compared to other actresses.
Banquet. ..again all in how many banquets they plan to have he..he..heavily king Andy Lau with no banquet at all. Moses really honor Aimee as his empress of dowager.
It is the idea of Aimee’s father to hold a banquet in Toronto. Aimee’s father has a decent Chinese restaurant in Toronto and Aimee was born here. It means that Aimee’s family has lived in Toronto for over 30 years, and they should have a lot of friends and relatives in Toronto. Of course, his father wants to celebrate his daughter’s wedding with his relatives and friends. He is hosting the banquet in his own restaurant. What is wrong with it?
If Andy Lau wanted to keep his personal life private and held no wedding banquets, it was his own choice. He even kept his marriage private for years! Everyone is different. I don’t think we should compare Aimee’s wedding banquets with Andy Lau’s.
I find them funny with big belly still holding so many banquets quite shameful. ..lo..
What is so shameful about that?? I think if you are talking about back in the olden days where you are supposed to get pregnant after you get married, then I can see what you are saying. However, in these days, what is the big deal?? Angela Tong had a big belly when she was getting married too along with a number of others as well…Not just a big belly,but some already had kids before tying the knot so what is so shameful???
@HSt
From what saying now is more like following a fashion trend …
What is the name of Aimee’s father’s restaurant?
I’m curious which restaurant this is?
Legend (Lai Ching in Chinese) Chinese Restaurant in Thornhill (just outside of Toronto), Ontario. It is a decent Chinese restaurant which has been in business for 20 years at the same location.
Probably it is a trend now in Hong Kong – to get married only when the woman is pregnant – especially in the entertainment industries. Almost 90% of the celebrities got married because of pregnancy, such as Aimee Chan, Angela Tong, Man Chun Han, Chu Yan, Yoyo Chan, Sonija Kwok, Suki Tsui, etc. and etc. Sad!
sandcherry,
Well, I don’t think it is a trend now in Hong Kong. I think it is because people are open-minded about it and don’t make a big deal about it as long as it doesn’t affect them, other people, or the society. Just because we were raised to think it is bad doesn’t mean it is actually bad. Maybe this is seen as bad to religious people, but the fact that it is already 2013 makes me prefer facts over myths. Yes, it is true that getting pregnant before marriage does not have any positive effect, but it doesn’t have any negative effect either. After all, the man doesn’t run away after knowing the woman is pregnant, so at least they are still together at the end. The only difference is the time the woman gets pregnant. One is before marriage, and one is after marriage. The responsibility is still fulfilled whether it is before or after. Furthermore, nobody is affected.
However, some don’t even want to be responsible and just run away, including the mothers of the children. Look at how many abandoned children in this world. Obviously, Aimee and Moses are 100x better than those people.
Perhaps I am old-fashioned. I think marriage is a promise between two people to live and share life together forever under any circumstances, good or bad, happy or sad. I personally don’t think a couple should get married only after they know they are expecting a child. A child is the end product of a marriage, not before a marriage. If a couple get married only after the woman gets pregnant, it is only the “consequence or responsibility” of having sex. I don’t think they are the same.
No, I don’t think you’re old fashioned, sandcherry! I have the same beliefs as you 🙂
@sandcherry,
Agreed, if the man does not commit to marrying a woman (before a baby), why the h*ll would the woman commit to having his baby? Duh?
“some don’t even want to be responsible and just run away, including the mothers of the children.”
If the woman does not want to be responsible, maybe better to just abort the pregnancy?
@sandcherry,
I agree with you and many old fashioned people do as well. My parents for example, really oppose sex before marriage so of course still look down on people who get pregnant before marriage. I personally am not that old fashioned since I know many have sex while dating, but they should be careful to not get pregnant. My parents think that if a girl gets pregnant, the guy can easily drop them and run off if they are not married. I have seen many cases where a guy only marries a girl just because she is pregnant and sadly in a lot of cases, it did not work out since they married out of responsibility not because of love or willingness. That is one of the main reasons why I still feel it is better to have kids/get pregnant after marriage. However, if the guy is a good guy and was going to marry the girl anyways then it would be ok. But I still prefer having kids after marriage rather than before.
@sandcherry and Bubblez,
I second your comments. Children should be blessings to people who are already committed in marriage. Children should not be the basis of marriage. I’ve seen way too many real-life tragedies of failed relationships and broken marriages due to premarital babies.

Agree with you. I know many people have sex during dating, but they should take precautions – not to get pregnant. Birth control is so good and safe now, and I don’t see any reasons of not practising safe sex these days. That is the minimum that a couple can do before marriage.
I disagree with all of you. No, I’m not one of those that gets pregnant before marriage, but it doesn’t mean I think people that get pregnant before marriage are bad, or are less superior, or are inferior to those that get pregnant after marriage. Maybe it is just me to think so as I am very practical in real life rather than theoretical, so instead of setting a rule and asking people to live according to the particular rule, I’d prefer not to have many unnecessary rules–in other words, societal rules–as long as it doesn’t affect other people because everyone’s experience of lives is different. Practically, I still prefer the outcome rather than the process as long as the process doesn’t affect other people. After all, we have 7 billion people in this world, and it is hard to make everyone have similar experience of lives. If you don’t want to do it, then don’t do it. But don’t force other people to act similarly like you or think other people are bad because they don’t act similarly like you.
Same here, I have also seen many people that get pregnant after marriage but end up in tragedy as well as many people that get pregnant before marriage that successfully raise their children.
They can have as many as they want to since they are paying for it. I don’t think they are having that many. Other celebs have had 2 or even 3 at times so it is nothing new nor is it a big deal, especially if they grew up overseas. In this case, Aimee did so it is perfectly normal for her to have one in Canada,HK and wherever she got married.
I agree that it is not fair to compare to Andy’s case since his case is so different. Moses and Aimee were so high profile when they dated while Andy has always been secretive. It is just a matter of choice for each couple.
TVB wanted to sponsor and air their wedding, such as banquets, wedding dress, photography, videography, but they refused. They wanted to keep it private and personal instead of making it a big public celebration. I respect their decision. Though they were high-profiled artistes since their dating, they wanted to keep their wedding low-profiled.
I’ve liked Aimee since Off Pedder. Her acting was horrible at first, but you can see improvement throughout the sitcom. I especially admire her because she could have gone the sexy route, but instead chopped off her hair and covered up in Off Pedder.
Very happy for Moses and Aimee. All the best to them!
Aimee is pretty. I just dont like Moses Chan.
Both Aimee Chan and Christine Kuo are pretty, but in their own ways. Aimee is a sweet and happy girl, while Christine is a pretty and mature woman.
As long as Aimee is happy with her other half, we should be happy for her. Moses Chan is not bad, just a bit too old for Aimee (10 years older). At least he is not a flirtatious type of man. He did not have many relationships with women in the entertainment industries and he seems to be a serious and honest person.
Ooh.. I live in Toronto hehe. Maybe I should go to Aimee’s father’s restaurant tomorrow lol
In my opinion, Aimee and Christine look kind of alike.. Is it just me? But Aimee is prettier^^
Good luck! If possible, take some photos and post a link here for us to see.
I don’t think you will be allowed to have dinners there after maybe 5 p.m. on July 17, 2013. It is not a super big restaurant and is just good enough for Aimee’s family, relatives and friends (maybe 35 tables the most).
I don’t know, maybe you are right.. Even if the whole restaurant isn’t closed there may be one of those barriers. Haha idk maybe I’ll stop by >.<
Can you spell the restaurant name in Chinese?
Legend Chinese Restaurant 麗晶酒家
Thornhill, ON
(not sure of the exact address)
I’m just curious .. this place has been opened since 1994. How do you know it is run by Aimee Chan’s family? It sounds like you live in Toronto?
thanks. Will pay a visit after July 17. Always looking for some more chinese choices south of hwy 7
I read it in a local Chinese newspaper, Entertainment Section. You are right. I live just outside GTA.
I ate dinner there many years ago when it was new, but the food was just average. I also had dim sum there 3 or 4 years ago, and it was also average. Anyway, it is not a pricy restaurant, so I guess we cannot expect excellent food there.
I did not know the restaurant is owned by Aimee’s father until I read about Aimee’s wedding banquet reception. Since it was reported in the newspapers, I think I can share this good news with you people.
I will also try the food there in the near future. Just to see if the food is better.
I like Aimee Chan and Moses Chan together, a sweet couple 🙂 I think they are very compatible and both are down to earth people.
