Why Him Law Chose Tavia Yeung as His Wife
Only 31 years old, Him Law (羅仲謙) surprised fans when he secretly got married with Tavia Yeung (楊怡) in England. With a promising role in The Monkey King 2 <西遊記之孫悟空三打白骨精>, Him’s decision to get married seemed contrary to what most rising stars would choose at this stage in their careers. However, Him revealed that he greatly cherished having Tavia by his side for the past four years, and that tying the knot was the obvious choice.
Big Film Break in “The Monkey King 2”
Successfully breaking into the Mainland industry with his role in The Monkey King 2, Him shared what it was like to work with Aaron Kwok (郭富城), who plays Sun Wu Kong in the film. Him said, “Aaron is even more hardworking than I am. Not only on the inside, but he keeps a great physique as well. He goes jogging every day regardless of weather conditions. He has high expectations for himself and that influenced me in doing the same. If I want to continue to work in the entertainment industry, I have to maintain my looks. I will try harder. I’ve actually consulted a nutritionist to eat healthier. “
Inspired by Tavia Yeung
Shortly after working together in The Hippocratic Crush <On Call 36小時>, Him and Tavia quickly became drawn to each other despite their five-year-age gap.
Him revealed, “We both support each other – we don’t really do anything special but we always praise and support each other if we do something good. If something’s not right, we voice it. Honestly speaking, there aren’t a lot of people who tell the truth in this industry – very few are honest with you. Everyone will tell you that you’re handsome – it’s endless! In reality, how many people actually give valuable advice? Tavia was an inspiration to my work and personal life. People are often affected and influenced by each other.”
Dating for four years, Him found it was natural to eventually settle down with Tavia and plan their future together. Him said, “This prompted me to prepare for the second stage of my life. To be honest, if I want to get married and have children, I have to think of what I want to give my partner. What kind of environment do I want to give my children? If I were still single, I can go have fun and buy a sports car. Now, I will be more practical and invest my savings to prepare for the future.”
Since Him is only 31, he admits that he still likes sports cars. However, he will reflect on what is the most appropriate spending choices for himself at this stage in life. Him said, “It depends on whether [you can control your own spending habits]! When you want to change, you will tell yourself, ‘It’s more practical to make this choice!'”
Hopes to Have a Family
Although growing up in a single parent family, Him has not lost faith in marriage and hopes to have children with Tavia. Him ponders, “My feelings about marriage have been positive since growing up – I’m actually not scared. I will try my best to keep my marriage intact. It felt like I was missing something growing up – so I won’t let that happen to me. I will give my best to my children and my other half.”
Growing up in a rather traditional neighborhood, Him laughed and said a big wedding celebration in the near future is inevitable. Besides talking about hosting his year-end banquet, Him wants to have the perfect family.
Him expressed, “I don’t really matter. It’s more important to be responsible for my parents and my other half. Men will always put themselves last – parents, other half, and children are their priorities. If I’m not in this industry, it honesty doesn’t matter what I wear or eat. The most important thing is good health and happiness.”

Really seem like Tavia have a positive impact to him. Glad to know he have things plan out in his head and that he welcome a family even though he was brought up in a single parent household. Best of luck to the two of them.
Well said. For the 1st time, we are seeing a bit of what Tavia saw in him ???
Of all the marriages recently, this feels the most natural progression. No hint of a quick rebound or diving into marriage as a sign of desperation.

I remember right after Tavia and Him’s “car shaking” incident, they accepted many interviews to clarify the incident. They had a lot of chemistry in the interviews, easy banter and some flirting. They seemed very comfortable with each other, but there were also small caring touches that were seen.
I’m not surprised Tavia wants to get married since she seems ready to move on to the next stage in life. While Him is only 31 and can wait another few years, I’m glad to hear that he took this next step because of his love for Tavia.
When he spoke about sports cars, he demonstrated his restraint that he can put aside his own self-interests for their goals as a couple to save money. This is exactly what makes it work for couples in the long run, to identify joint goals and stick with them. I’m impressed by Him’s ability to compromise and maturity.

Him of course does not have to shower Tavia with gifts. She has greater wealth.
It might be Leanne that’s worried that Wong Cho Lam will leave her for all we know. Wong Cho might get bored in the future and decide to split up or It could be Leanne that becomes bored. Maybe they will live happily ever after. We are outsiders and won’t learn about the small details of their relationships. You’re acting like you sleep under their bed.

There’s more to attributes to just looks. Wisdom, charisma, compatibility, sense of humour.You might as well use use the word ‘appearance’ than ‘attributes’ because that’s all you seem to be bringing up. Does that mean Him should run as soon as Tavia shows her age in her appearance? Unlikely, there’s more to relationships than the shallow thought of appearance only.

@freedalas I was about the compliment you on your sensible and thoughtful thoughts & talks, when you proceeded to start it all over again (that on WCL & LL). My goodness, why, is it fun? Don’t bother to reply though. Just wondering aloud.

Wow, he just gained a new fan based on this interview alone.
I actually like him as an actor since On Call but not sure about his relationship with Tavia. Seemed like Tavia is a great influence to him and he appreciates it. Great couple.
I like this article and I’m not too surprised to hear that Tavia had inspired and changed him for the better. It only makes sense since Tavia has always been a good girl, almost to the point where people thought she was boring because she didn’t have any scandals. But she seems like someone who has her own principles and Kidd reminded me of Him’s incident with Teresa and she’s older than him, so it all somehow comes together.
I guess my next point is why Tavia chose Him? Since they are almost two different generation of stars, I didn’t really see the point that Tavia really needs him for support or praise. I guess I won’t be convinced unless there was something deeper.
@ladykriselle Agree with you. Tavia have a lot going for her IMO. Why does she pick Him? I guess she saw a side to him that we didn’t. Best of luck to them for sure.
Quite surprised that Him sounds mature. I wonder however if his choice of an older wife has to do with his lack of motherly love growing up. Perhaps he sees in Tavia a big sis or mother figure to give him a sense of security.
Him married at the age when men are usually working like a dog to reach a peak…but his romance with tavia has been going on for a while. With a wife now, his marriage is complete. So his target is to work hard to provide a happy family.,
