Kenneth Ma Yearns for a Wife and House
TVB “Diamond Bachelor,” Kenneth Ma (馬國明) has become a favorite among advertisers recently. Appearing at a Prince jewelry and watch event, Kenneth said that he was busily saving money to buy a new house, while hoping to meet the right woman.
Looking for a home to be at least 1,400 square feet in size for a family of four, Kenneth explained, “When my sister returns home with her two children, there will be enough space. Our current home is 900 square feet, which is very crowded when the kids are there!”
Asked if frequent costar, Tavia Yeung (楊怡), had recently purchased a new house, Kenneth said, “It appears to be so…. If it is, I will congratulate her!”
The 37-year-old heartthrob also admitted to intently looking for a girlfriend. “Yes, I’ve been looking! There are not many choices at TVB. The good women already have boyfriends, so I will continue to look. I’m not in a hurry. While I’m choosing, others are also choosing whether they wish to date me.”
While Kenneth was not extremely selective in his criteria for a girlfriend, he likened the search for a romantic partner to finding the right house, which is dependent on fate.
Leanne Li and Wong Cho Lam Save Money for House
Appearing at the same jewelry event with Kenneth Ma, Leanne Li (李亞男) revealed that she and boyfriend, Wong Cho Lam (王祖藍), would like to purchase a new home before getting married. “Having a house would give a greater sense of security,” the 27-year-old said that she wished to have an independently situated house instead of the popular condo apartments in Hong Kong.
Although their dream for Hong Kong house was not yet realized, Leanne was already a property owner in her hometown in Canada. Since Leanne’s parents still lived in Canada, she plans to divide her time spent there with Hong Kong. Wong Cho Lam also expressed earlier that he preferred Canada as the place to raise his future children, indicating his flexibility in accommodating Leanne’s preferences.

Jayne: Kenneth finally cropped his curly hair. Guess this will be his new hairstyle for Triumph in the Skies 2! His character, “Roy” had so little development in the first series, the scriptwriters have plenty of room to stretch his personality in the sequel.
Do you guys really think Leanna and Wong Cho Lam will get married? I think she’s a nice girl and all..but I also think she is dating Wong Cho Lam to make a name for herself. Honestly, I didn’t even know of her until they started dating…
I think they will… Honestly, I’m sure it probably wouldn’t be that hard for her to find a rich boyfriend if she wanted so I think she’s sincere in liking Wong Cho Lam.
Anna,
Wong Cho Lam appears to have been a mentor to Leanne Li since they became friends at church. She was unable to accept him as her boyfriend in the beginning due to their physical differences. They had separated, but Leanne realized that she loved and missed him.
Here is their love story:

I agree with AC. Leanne is pretty enough that it would be easy for her to find a rich / famous man who seems more compatible with her physically than Cho Lam. I do believe their relationship and love is sincere.
Kenneth finally cropped his curly hair. Guess this will be his new hairstyle for Triumph in the Skies 2!
But his new hairstyle still looks bad.
Nicole, this cropped semi-curly hair is an improvement over his style in “Season of Love.” With some highlights and sideburns, it might look more interesting.
Yes, a major improvement indeed!
How about short short hair~ he looked good in Tiger Cubs.
I disagree. His hairstyle looks like a trendier version of Dumb and Dumber hairstyle.
Is there any normal and suave looking hairstyle suitable for him!?!
His hairstyle in Mysteries of Love suited him very well. I think that’s the only one that actually looks good.
Yes, either curly or this new trend hairdo that following by most of Txb guys do not look good on him.
Leanne and cho lam dont have a high profile relationship, dont think she is trying to use his fame.
Leanne is a pretty girl, if she wants to get popular using underhanded means like those unknown to us prc ‘celebs’, she would have chosen and easily gotten someone else other than cho lam.
I think they sincerely love each other.. And i love the message that they are giving to others
Around them, putting God before everything else including their rs!
Kenneth seems to be a very nice man. He’s charming, friendly and caring(esp. towards his family) and so I don’t think he’ll find it difficult to find the girl of his choice. I think he just wants one who is sincere like him. Kevin is more picky.
““Having a house would give a greater sense of security,” the 27-year-old said that she wished to have an independently situated house instead of the popular condo apartments in Hong Kong.”
Maybe it’s a bit better security than renting a house, but, not much greater. You still have to borrow money from bank and get tied down for years repaying the borrowed money. If you can’t pay the installment, the bank can take your house to resell it. You will still end up with nothing in this case.
I assumed they buy a house at once instead of in installments. Then I would understand the greater sense of security.
It would be silly to pay off your house unless u have so much money u don’t know where else to put it. Most practical people will buy a house within their means. Don’t buy a mansion if u can’t afford to make the monthly mortgage payments.
First line actors always have excuses of wanting to buy house a first, save money first, not enough money to marry, can’t find girlfriend, but, we see second line actors all getting married early and able to raise children. I’m sure they didn’t make as much as the first line actors. How come these actors can so easily find girlfriends and get married while the first line actors couldn’t?
I think TVb forbid them (these 1st line actors) to settle down so fast since TVB can still use them to milk more money but Wayne Lai is an exceptional case..
In Wayne’s case, that was before he was catapulted to first line status. Luckily, RB made it big, otherwise TVB would’ve continued ignoring the talent…
Anyway, most of the leads are 30+ today, so are we meant to believe they’re innocent virgins? The problem is the fans who go all hellbent on hating/attacking/hurting themselves when their idols are in a relationship.
RB had all the makings of a hit. Viewers love that sort of story. If Heart of Greed, etc can be mega hit, I can’t see why not RB which actually has a decent story and a touching love story.
Kidd,
1st line actors want to buy luxury homes while 2nd line actors don’t mind living in smaller apartments. Different status leads to different values.
Wheeee I love Kenneth Ma 🙂
Kenneth, if you are reading this… go get married soon and stop acting like a loose-cannon looking for a wife!
keneth looks good.. hopefully he wll find ms rght soon
Isn’t Nancy willing and waiting?
If not, Kenneth, me! ME!!
But wow, 900 square feet with FOUR people? Very crowded. Wait! There’s him, wife, parents, sister, husband, 2 children… overcrowded!!
Nancy already said No.
Selena seems to wait for boy like Patrick to come?
So you don’t have love rival. Congrats.
What is this man!! Nancy one time said want next time don’t want. Make up your mind because a lot of us are lining up!
Kenneth, give up on Selena. She doesn’t want you. Give up on Margie. She is like first lost love. Who else?
Funn,
Kenneth’s first love in HK entertainment industry might be Sharon Chan. While filming “Dream of Colors,” he had a crush on her.
http://www.jaynestars.com/news/kenneth-ma-rarely-brings-women-home-admits-liking-sharon-chan/
This should be the timeline of Kenneth’s interests:
1. Sharon Chan
2. Margie Tsang
3. Selena Li
4. Nancy Wu
Selena revealed that Kenneth had crush on her for 6 years (?). Between Margie and Selena, I think Kenneth must have been crushing for a decade.
Wonder if he had any flings in-between?
Sharon can just be a crush. He has loads of crushes. Sharon is not right for him. Too outspoken.
BUT it does show he has BROAD taste in women. Much like Sonija has in men. Maybe he will marry someone not in front of the camera Surely there must be some pretty assistant directors out there in TVB??
Nancy now doesnt want and is again linked with Derek more now, Selena sure doesnt want, Sharon is even more busy with Joel more than bothering of MM and Margie denied twice. You dont have any love rival in the list and the line is making for you to queue. In an easy game like this, you cant feel the excitement and have to question the girls?
HAHAHA Funn you crack me up as always.
I actually think Kenneth and Selena would make a good match and as someone already mentioned, Kenneth has had a crush on her before. I watched an interview with them a few years back and it’s obvious Kenneth had a soft spot for her.
Here’s hoping Kenneth finds someone! He comes off as a nice, down-to-earth guy and deserves a great girl.
Bridget, me! MEEEEE!!! Get in line!
Kidding, in case anyone takes what I said literally which some do.
Yes, seen many guys but he is one of those I feel if I meet in person I will like him very much. Maybe his goofy sort of smile disarms any suspicion I may have on his character.
But his hair…
Kenneth’s picture-nice! BUT the hair… why that hair… give him gelled up look! Give him suave look. Not that silly boy hair!! Kenneth, why are you fighting your handsomeness? WHY?!
Ma Ming should just get married with Margie Tsang.End of the story.
the woman can not have children, too old
Too bad i’m married and wont have chance with him LOL ! what a yummy
Ma Ming please marry me haha
