Kenneth Ma Responds to Nancy-Ruco Dating Rumors
Kenneth Ma (馬國明) said he will be happy and supportive if Ruco Chan (陳展鵬) and Nancy Wu (胡定欣) ever decide to make their rumored relationship official.
The 42-year-old actor, who dated Nancy for two years, was asked to respond to Ruco and Nancy’s dating rumors when he showed up at TVB Studios to shoot his new drama, The Demon-Conquering Taxi <降魔的>.
“If it’s true then I am happy for them,” said Kenneth. “I’ve always said that women shouldn’t treat their careers as their only priority. Besides, Ruco is a top bachelor and a great deal. He is handsome and rich.” (Do you think they’re compatible?) “You’re going to have to ask them that question.” (What about your own love life? Any new romance?) “I’ve been filming The Demon-Conquering Taxi every single day. I romance Mandy Wong (黃智雯) in the show.”
The Demon-Conquering Taxi is a horror drama that centers on a taxi driver and his encounters with various supernatural beings. Asking Kenneth if he had any strange encounters, he said, “I haven’t come across anything strange yet. I also don’t want to. But there are a lot of night shoots for this drama. It’s pretty difficult to do.”

Did kenneth and Nancy really date? Of cos Ruco is much hotter and more desirable. Rich or not is not top criteria since Nancy has an independent career that’s doing just fine.
he maybe praying hard for someone else to get her so she for sure won’t be back to haunt him. Lol. But then he’s friends with Ruco, he wouldn’t wish it on a friend, would he?
@jokercanadian
lol … your comment is funny
@cuckoo I’m dead serious,
@cuckoo it’s pathetic how the press, Nancy’s friends and even Nancy herself are all trying to pressure Ruco into dating her! Leave the poor guy alone! Love cannot be forced! He’s too good for her! Kenneth is too good for her too!
Looked like they are still friends after breaking up. always a good sign really.
I thought Nancy only go 4 rich guys after breaking up with Kenneth.
Nancy is already financially stable. So she can focus on love rather than money. And there is no guarantee that money will last forever. Look at some one’s husband now, on the verge of bankrupt….
@dramadrama
sorry who is going broke if u dont mind sharing?
A person that is financially stable can still be looking for a wealthy guy. An actress career is not very long so I dont think its wrong to be looking for a guy that can give future stability plus community status.
@1nit Just that wealth’s expiry date can’t be predicted. There’s an actress cum singer married overseas. Very rich guy. Owns some ships company or something like that. But now seems going to be broke.
Well, I think Ruco is doing not too badly financially either. But I believe he is more interested in the nice, clean, respectable girls. I also think Nancy is not good enough looking for him. Look at his former girlfriend, Eunice; Nancy is nowhere near! Or Linda Chung, I think he was interested in her at some point. She’s also prettier and nicer than Nancy.
@jokercanadian
I dont think Nancy is pretty either. Not a fan of her body as well. But beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
The media made me think that Nancy and her group of friends like 2 go for 2nd gen rich guys or CEO etc… So even tho Ruco is financially stable, it is not enough.
Linda matches with him better. But too bad she is married with a child. I cant see anyone else that match with him at TVB atm.
Time will tell if they are dating or not
@jokercanadian ankie was pretty hot. they’d make a pretty good couple…
@ruomin02 If jokercanadian thinks Nancy is too “tainted” for him, Ankie the party girl is worse, openly smoking and boozing with those Caucasian men at night spots in HK. No doubt she’s hot and sexy but no way is she good enough for him.
@isay yes she is too wild and “Caucasian” for him. Sorry, not intended to be racist.
@ruomin02 too wild and I think he’d dated her already
@jokercanadian nope, he was never interested in her IMO.
I don’t understand why everyone thinks nancy wants kenneth back. she never implied she wanted to rekindle their relationship it was kenneth who joked about it in an interview and he said something about how Maybe they will get back together in the future.
@holiday I don’t think Kenneth wants her back. From what I can read his personality, he’s super diplomatic and likely said it so as not to offend anyone, including Nancy. A true gentleman! Ruco is the same.
My interpretation of this whole scandal about Ruco and Nancy dating and Nancy moving to be closer to Ruco’s home: may have to split into a few posts, lol …
Ruco and Nancy were sighted at Sammi’s concert… Ruco posted Video and IG while there. I believe he wanted to let us know that it’s nothing going on, just the both of them attending a concert. I’m pretty sure he would not want to publicize his date so openly. It may well be that Nancy invited him.
@jokercanadian my interpretation of the video and IG is that he knows they will be discovered attending the concert together so he might as well beat the press to it. It could be that both he and Nancy are fans of sammi and just went together. Simple as that.
@jokercanadian why “scandal”? Both aren’t attached or married. There’s nothing scandalous. “Rumour” is a more appropriate word.
@isay scandal because so many people are getting their hands into it, including us,
@jokercanadian not trying to go against you in any way but just giving my two cents on this rumour (which i really happy to see it, haha! I’m a strong shipper of this couple)
Ruco and Nancy attended Sammi’s concert with tickets that are not in the VIP area (that’s where most PR tickets for celebrities are assigned seats to) which shows that they both were trying to avoid the media.
@joster555 no problems, I like exploring other perspectives and appreciate yours.
@jokercanadian Like your comment here – will keep it in my little black book for future use.
Also like your use of the word “scandal” – for the pun that it can be intended for
@kangaroo thank you. But unfortunately it has offended some!
Then what about those comments he posted in response to Nancy’s IG? Well I was a little stumped by them too, to be honest. He comes across as shy and and not open with his feelings. I took that he wanted to do some promotion because he’s filming Alliance with Nancy. He’s done that before when he was filming with Linda Chung. But this time, Nancy’s friends took that as Ruco courting her.
@jokercanadian And as for the IG comments that he posted, note that those were made after their AFWFW promotions, if you were to look carefully at the dates, all of those happened in September. AFWFW was broadcasted in August and he had all reasons not to promote anymore. Well… all i can say is that i have never seen Ruco made any comments on any other people’s IG except Nancy’s. HAHAHA!
@joster555 I was thinking promotion for the new drama, The Alliance. I still can’t see a low-key person doing something like that! Honestly, I, probably like others, am just taking an interest because they are celebrities. They are mature adults, they will and should do whatever pleases them; especially when it comes to romance. In the end, fans (true fans) of each camp should support their ultimate choices and give them their blessings and good wishes. Cheers.
Nancy moving closer to Ruco. Nancy did say when she was interviewed about her breakup with her ex that she was moving. Whether she wants to move closer to Ruco bc she’s interested in him (Ruco was giving Linda Chung rides to the studio bc they lived close by), maybe it was planned by Nancy or may be just coincidental. This part I have no firm opinion. But it became part of the scandal. Lol. Show biz!! And we are taking an interest … serving their intended purpose!
@jokercanadian Lastly, Nancy has been living at her apartment for a long time and she definitely did not move there because of Ruco. Take this part of the news with a pinch of salt:)
I believe Nancy is a pretty nice girl, if you look at her IG and weibo, she has MANY celebrity close friends which just tells me how nice a person she is. what you see on interviews may not be as accurate because its a kind of confidence they have to bring across to audience sometimes.
@joster555 I believe a person’s behaviour and reactions to various situations and interactions tell a very solid tale of the person’s character and personality. It’s a science; my education and professional background. That’s why many businesses use role playing and scrutiny of potential employees’ social media accounts as a part of assessment in the recruitment process. The video clips and conversations in the media tell quite a tale!
@jokercanadian you know what? I think you should stop throwing us yr professional qualifications to justify why you dislike nancy so much. You don’t know her yet you’re saying all these mean stuff about her as if you knew her personally. Then you say all those good stuff about linda. We can see that you’re just as biased as the rest of us. I agree with joster. If Nancy has so many good friends in the industry she can’t be as bad as you make her out to be. Btw I’m not a fan of nancy but i do feel offended by how you’re bashing her character.
@jokercanadian I like your style – the way you answer is critique but with a laid-back approach. I don’t get the impression that you “throwing us yr professional qualifications to justify”.
I don’t know you but the style of your words and reply here pretty much gives me the feeling that you are merely commenting your points of view (do not think that you are been mean or bashing)
@kangaroo thank you for noticing… exactly my intentions. I did mention that employers these days commonly use role playing and look at potential employees’ social media activities since recruitment professionals believe those activities tell a tall tale about the the person’s character and personality. I guess that comment offended someone.
@kangaroo i beg to differ. She sounded “professional ” until l she made those comments glorifying linda till i couldn’t stand her biased opinion any more hence i commented about her throwing her professional qualifications around to justify bashing someone she didn’t like. Her comments about Nancy were uncalled for and she justified that with her professional qualifications not facts. Then she glorified linda calling her close to perfection. That just smacks of blind idolisation ro me and thus she lost her credibility.
@isay it’s ok for you to disagree. But I just wanted to share how I arrived at my conclusions. I feel it’s more meaningful than merely making statements. i so think Linda is close to being perfect and it would not bother me a bit if you expressed the same sentiments towards your own idol. Of course I am biased, aren’t we all? Otherwise there would be no variety in the world. How boring and monotonous life would be?
@jokercanadian I’m glad you agreed that you’re biased. We all are whether we possess professional qualifications or not. If we don’t like someone we nitpick on everything they do. Eg there’s a fine line between being confident and conceited. If you like her you say she’s confident. If you don’t like her, you’ll accuse her of being conceited. Interestingly my opinions of nancy and linda are reversed from yours. I used to have a good impression of linda but not anymore. As for Nancy ive always been neutral but never got any bad vibes abt her even before that. I appreciated her hard work and her good acting. Im sure her close friends like myolie Elaine and mandy all can’t be wrong about her so who are you to judge and make statements about her character like as if you knew her personally? Worse still, you throw in your professional qualifications to justify your opinion which is essentially merely your opinion and not the truth yet you try to make it sound like the truth.
@isay no problem. You’ve expressed your opinions and I’ve expressed mine. We’re both biased. I’ve already said previously that there are different perspectives. Not sure why you keep commenting on my same post? I sense that you are trying to alter my thinking? Let’s just agree to disagree and move on! I hold firm on my impressions of Linda, Nancy and you. I’m sure you do too!
@jokercanadian hahaha i thought YOU were the one who kept commenting on my same post and that YOU were trying to alter my thinking lol. Ditto to you.
@isay let’s forget about them, they’re just people like us, maybe they have more enemies than us normals. Lol. Have a good day!
@jokercanadian thanks and same to you 🙂
@jokercanadian
What reaction did Nancy have in which situation that made you dislike her?
And from the above what have you seen in her personality that no1 else could see?
If you dont mind sharing what is your qualification and professional background?
Its hard to have a meaningful discussion when theres no examples or facts.
@1nit no problem I will not talk more of my personal background. But we are all entitled to our opinions. We don’t have to have a consensus to have a meaningful discussion. Cheers. No hard feelings. There are people who agree with my interpretation and others, yours. Even if no one agrees with me, no prob. I just want to express my cents worth.
I also want to emphasized that I like everyone else have my own biases. No denying that. I prefer a nice, kind-hearted person and dislike the opposit. I guess both Nancy and Linda are very good actresses since they are both able to give us an impression that’s not their natural character and personality. Kudos to both!
@jokercanadian “thumbs up”
I’m actually surprised Kenneth and Nancy dated, let alone lasted two years. Kenneth is an introvert who likes to keep to himself, despite his comments in interviews sometimes. Nancy, on the other hand, appears very sociable, but also likes to flaunt it and show off.
@dandan you’ve hit it right on!
I remember reading that Nancy moved closer to Kenneth when they were dating (like she moved closer to him when she was chasing him). Seems that she is repeating this with Ruco (???)
@kangaroo yes I’ve read that about her moving closer to Ruco too. It would make sense if they were really dating,to save travel time between the two residences. only time will tell if they are indeed dating, They are both mature adults and they should date if they both want to; regardless of how we feel.
