Gillian Chung Gushes Over New Boyfriend: “He Makes Me Feel Loved!”
Since her debut as a one of the two Twins popstar duo, Gillian Chung (鍾欣桐) has been the dream girl of men both in and out of the entertainment industry. Although Gillian’s other relationships may have been overshadowed by her ex-boyfriend, Edison Chen (陳冠希), she had also dated Juno Mak (麥浚龍), Alex Fong (方力申), Chun Fen (秦奮) and Korean actor Tyler Kwon. After several failed romances, did Gillian Chung (鍾欣潼) finally find Mr. Right in Taiwanese doctor Michael Lai (賴弘國)?
The 32-year-old medical professional was previously married to a stewardess who was dubbed as an Ariel Lin (林依晨) lookalike. Their marriage eventually fizzled out and they divorced six months later.
Gillian did not seem to mind and openly acknowledged the relationship in October. “We have not known each other for very long, but he is very caring towards me. He makes me feel loved. Although he is a very busy person and flies around a lot, he still makes a great effort for us to get to know each other. Although my previous relationships have been tumultuous, I still believe in love. I hope I can have everyone’s blessing this time. I hope this relationship will blossom into something more.”
Despite being in a long distance relationship, the couple often makes time to visit one another. Michael was recently spotted in Hong Kong entering Gillian’s home in Sai Wan. After purchasing coffee, the Michael drove Gillian’s car to pick her up from work. Perhaps afraid that the high-profile publicity will ultimately damage her newfound romance, Gillian stalled when she spotted reporters and did not enter the vehicle until her assistants provided enough cover.
While Michael was in Hong Kong, Gillian also brought him to Charlene Choi‘s (蔡卓妍) 35th birthday celebration. Although the party was mainly by EEG stars Joey Yung (容祖兒), Yumiko Cheng (鄭希怡), Nicholas Tse (謝霆鋒) and Kenny Kwan (關智斌) Michael fit right in and seemed to get along very well with Gillian’s friends.

I don’t know much about Twins, other than the very cursory and the news of Gillian’s dates (since explosive news with Edison) .
She’s also got way more news about dates (just look at the lineup) than acting-singing achievements.
The overall feel throughout all the reads – is she seems kinda materialistic, and a needy (desperate to be loved, taken care of)
Her dates all seem have to be someone (ie citing a Korean who knows folks like Lee Byung-hun when Tyler Kwon is relatively UNknown in Korea. I have been an avid Kdrama/movie fan since 2010 to current), some wealthy-rich dude, or a doctor or whatever.
She’s very sweet looking … I hope she finds her own SELF-worth and independence. A guy should only only bonus-icing on the cake … but that cake should be solidly HERself first.
@nomad822 independence is important but I think having a partner to go thru life’s hardship together is also something worthwhile to strive for. I think it’s just default for most actresses to marry ppl who are renowned given that they’re pretty famous themselves. They all run in the same circle. Charlene is the same way – actually I think Charlene is much more controlling and needy than even Gillian cus I rmb reading this article once where Chapman To called her a b*atch for always harrassing her husband at the time and controlling where and who he hangs out with
@coralie I think between the two, Gillian is definitely more needy. She seems like someone who craves for love or to be love. I remember when she was dating Tyler, she had him followed her everywhere. Now that she’s dating the new guy, he’s following her everywhere too. Idk, Gillian’s new boyfriend has such a colorful background too. Hopefully, she’s truly happy and not settling just because she’s older.
@vlol it’s hard to say. before her scandal, nobody thought she was the needy type. after her scandal, well, her chances of obtaining a normal relationship dropped dramatically. maybe she’s more needy now because of what happened or maybe she’s always been needy. I can’t say.
as for colorful backgrounds, in comparison to Charlene? her exes had really colorful background too!
@coralie Which husband? Ronald?
It seems like she’s into a younger guy. He must have the money for sure.
Gillian def. seem more needy to me over Charlene. Wish her luck for sure.
I don’t think it’s comparable who’s needier? haha Lol… I do think this Gillian is getting more desperate perhaps due to her scandal w/EC that mad her so. But life is unexpected thou, this twins girl is clearly more successful and popular than that Bobo Chan who was even more saddening as that the previous rich dude dumped her over the incident but she had no problem finding a husband so sometimes you just never know. Perhaps bc she is more popular it is even more difficult for her to find that Mr. Right. Both twins girl thou sound like they are needy, can’t say who’s needier but definitely the seems the kind who really need to find that Mr. Right in order to be happy even thou one of them had been there done that.
Why not both? Im sure we’re all needy at some point. I think it’s quite unfair to judge who’s needier based off interviews and everything.
Best of luck to Gillian though! This girl is so unlucky with love.
I don’t know which is worse, Gillian’s singing or her acting. However, the poor girl has been through a lot and has not had much luck with love. She is constantly criticised for chosing non chinese boyfriends. HELLO??. The chinese men refuse to date her. Yes she was part of the unfortunate scandal that was not her fault. It was not. These people who judge her and ostracise her better be worthy of living in glass houses. I wish Gillian well with this latest relationship.
@bubbletea well said
Ww@hannah Thanks. I am just so sick and tired of everyone putting Gillian down. She deserves a second chance
. She was treated like crap not that long ago by a getting ugly pretty boy ido who thinks she is beneath him. His life is filled with so much immorality but he has avoided the scandals. The women always get punished.
The chinese men refuse to date her and netizens complain that Gillian would not date chinese or HK men. Then her collegues shun her or avoid her because they think they are better than her. This arrogant clown who harassed Gillian better learn that you can’t hide your true colors or your sick life forever. He should learn from his fellow countryman and celeb, who also is married and has kids. He supposedly has a scandal free life, but HIV don’t lie. No one should disrespect Gillian because of the computer incident, especially the ebiz folk.
Time has a way of exposing buried skeletons. Just ask the ask the tall, HIV singer, or Harvey Wienstien. Give GC a chance
