Ron Ng and Raymond Lam: “We Did Not Fight Over Linda Chung”
Earlier, there were rumors that Ron Ng Cheuk Hei and Raymond Lam Fung’s friendship was over due to mutual interest inLinda Chung Ka Yan. Allegedly, the men had a heated exchange on their blogs.
At yesterday’s TVB Anniversary Lighting Ceremony, Ron and Raymond posed for press photos and denied any animosity. Raymond said, “My friendship with Ron Ng has not changed over the last decade. I never dated Linda Chung. Artists are paired with different co-stars. During the filming of a series, there are either dating rumors or disagreement rumors. I am just laughing over the rumors.”
Ron emphasized that he starting having more intimate contact with Linda since the filming of Men and Women’s Dwelling Choice <抉宅男女>. Linda dismissed the rumors as false before leaving the scene quickly.

Jayne: An old re-hash of Raymond Lam’s rumors with Linda Chung, but adding Ron Ng to the triangle. Haha if only it were real, that would make for interesting gossip!
Nahhh.. Linda will go for the better of the 2. Which is the better of the 2 you decide. I have made up my mind even before reaching the 1st sentence.
Raymond!
I’m supporter of underdog, so, I go for Ron. 😛
Why Kidd? Why??Prince is there and you want pauper?
Ok I hope there’s no Ron fans around!
By the way why is Raymond having that god awful hairstyle? And he looks pale, thin and terribly tired. I give full marks to Ron for the fashion. But chop off his head and plop Raymond’s head on his.
What the heck is wrong with Raymond these days?
BUT if throw Bosco inside? Still Raymond because sorry lar, Prince, pauper and court jester, Prince wins.
BUT throw Sammul in it, whatever the rumours and what nots, I have to say I would sort of choose the knight over the prince, the pauper and the court jester.
But who will Linda choose? Maybe the princess, Fala!
KIDDING!
Funn, haha funny analogies. I would choose the court jester.
Ray’s been overworked with his concert and series filming. He does look tired. His skin looked really off in ‘Growing Through Life’ in the HD stuff! You should see his concert, Funn… his hair is even worse (bleached with a weird black section on top).
Anyway, good stuff Ron & Ray. Bros before hos as they say.
raymond should get a hair trim soon. yes i agree, he has been looking really tired ): *heartaches*
hmm such gossip is kinda lame -.- it’s so obvious that raymond and linda ARE NOT dating. and now ron is dragged into the picture ?!?!
i can only say LOL.
I actually like Raymond’s outfit. His hair is a little uncombed and he looks tired. Watch until “The Colorful World of Sister Fa” is released, Raymond will probably look haggard and tired in that series.
Ron’s outfit and smoky glasses make him look a bit like a pimp though. Minus the glasses he might look better.
These rumors just never end, huh? But, I am a Ron supporter in this! Ray is just too princely and pale for me. I like the buffer, bigger guys like Ron! I’m looking forward to next year, cause he’s going to be in 4 series! I hope he can really make a breakthrough to attain similar status to Ray!
I believe there is some truth to the Linda/Raymond dating rumors. Actors never admit until they are close to marriage or many years later. There was a recent gossip article about Linda Chung being so upset over her break-up with Raymond that she had to take time off to return to Vancouver to recouperate (which was why Linda was missing from the Can’t Buy Me Love finale gathering with the whole cast in HK).
Allegedly, Raymond has been cheating on her with some China actress, last name Lim/Lum/Lam, with several pictures posted in the article and showed good friend Shirley Yeung overheard comforting Linda. Who knows how much is true, but I do believe that Raymond & Linda probably at least went out/dated for a while, if they don’t have an underground relationship. Why would Linda reject Raymond if he showed any interest in pursuing her. And I refuse to believe that Raymond lives a “very dry” life as in no dating life at all during his career. He just does not admit it.
Anyways, he’s the “prince” and how many female actresses out there can really resist??
I agree with you Wendy. My mom was mentioning to me that she heard that Ray and Linda did date but of course they will not admit it. I think their relationship was pretty brief and did not last though. If rumours re-occur over and over again, I think a lot of times there is some truth to them. If there is no fire then why is there smoke??
Style: Ron
Swagger: Ron
Charisma: Ray
Physique: Ron
Acting: Ray
Singing: Ray
Since it’s a tie, I’ll take both home!!!
Right, HeTieShou, these rumors persist because there is some truth to them. Linda and Raymond will be performing a Thanksgiving concert in Reno together, so it’ll be interesting to see them together then. I have tickets!! 🙂
As for preference, I’d choose Sammul over all the other guys. He is taller and the most handsome. I remember him and Raymond in Survivor Law and Sammul was so much better looking than Raymond. I think Raymond had some recent plastic surgery or something b/c his chin and cheeks look so different, even if he has some weight loss. Just look at the concert pictures from 2009 and 2010. Cheeks are sunken in and chin seems longer in 2010. He looked cuter in 2009, imho.
I personally don’t think that Linda and Raymond went out. I reckon Linda is too “european” and raymond doesn’t suit her style. I think Linda would want someone more europeany.
And I agree Raymond did have ALOT of plastic surgery. He looks totally different. I definitely prefer his look before. He looks a bit freaky now…
Poor Raymond, he seems to have aged in this pic eventhough he is a few months younger than Ron. Ron on the other-hand is looking more and more handsome, minus the sunglass please. As a Tavia supporter, I would not want Linda to pick any of them 🙂 But like Pandamao, I would take both. LOL
Wendy, I heard something different regarding Linda going to Vancouver to recoup. In one interview, she said that she couldn’t shake-off one of the character that she was playing and was lacking sleep, I think it was “ghost writer”, thus needed to take a vacation. Ray made it really clear in the Fan Kam interview that he is tired of his rumors with Linda, it’s getting old and now brining Ron into it is just unpleasant. Ray once had rumor with Fala too, that someone caught them going to Karaoke together. But then again, there are some truth in some rumors, but most of the time, it’s for promotional purpose or gossips.
Jayzemine, From what I read, Linda suffered insomnia and had to take a week off in June/July, but her recent trip to Vancouver was in Sept/Oct, during the Can’t Buy Me Love finale. Maybe the problem is still persisting so she needed another longer break, but who knows. In her very recent pictures, she does have a sad look or forced smile on her face.
I feel bad for these actors/actresses, always having to hide their relationships, forcing them to have to make up excuses or lie when answering the media’s constant questions. Maybe it is protect their careers or the other person. Andy Lau said something very interesting. When asked if there is still triad influence in the entertainment industry, he indicated that’s the reason why he didn’t want to disclose who his wife/partner’s identity was. Guess loved ones can be used as a threat.
I have heard that some companies do forbid artists that work in the same company to date, but luckily TVB is not like that. I am not sure if these actors/actresses are ever “forced” to hide their relationships(maybe in a few selected cases, but as far as I know that doesn’t happen often), but they instead just choose to hide it. I think it is sad because what will they do or say when the truth finally comes out??
“There was a recent gossip article about Linda Chung being so upset over her break-up with Raymond that she had to take time off to return to Vancouver to recouperate (which was why Linda was missing from the Can’t Buy Me Love finale gathering with the whole cast in HK).
Linda went back to VAncouver for her sister’s wedding.
“Why would Linda reject Raymond if he showed any interest in pursuing her.”,
Why wouldn’t she? Not every girl must reciprocate when Raymond come a courting.
Not saying that Linda/Raymond never date. I’m no insider. But, sometimes, no feel is no feel. Doesn’t matter the guy is handsome, rich, etc.
Recently, Raymond seem to be going for the Harry Potter style. He didn’t wear his Harry Potter glasses in this picture. But, in a earlier picture, he did and he look so like Harry Potter. 😛
Wendy – I noticed Linda’s sad look at the TVB Lighting Ceremony.
oh haha i thought Linda dated Philip Ng? I remember seeing it in some magazine. I don’t know but I’ve never seen any pictures that show Raymond and Linda actually went out and I always thought that the rumors were fake.
I don’t understand how so many people are pulled into tabloids and ongoing false rumors. Has anyone actually read these magazines? They’re pretty ruthless and most of the times false. (An extremely good example, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie) There have been NUMEROUS articles on them breaking up or fighting or having a fall out. Completely false and if people paid attention, they’re still extremely loving and family oriented.
Also, if people paid attention to what the artist themselves have to say, they do make it very clear, although some tabloids take it out of context. (I remember one article that quoted how he “needed a maid” and they related that to Linda Chung’s character on the TVB show. If you pay attention to his mannerisms he sighed, most likely tired from being rumored with her for so long). He’s taken on many interviews, some questions ask what kind of ideal woman he likes and he’s described them. Along with saying numerous times how he is not, never was with Linda.
This probably does seem like a rant, but I, probably like Raymond Lam himself, is extremely tired of hearing just about every other quote from him, linked to Linda or reporters asking him about Linda every chance they see him. They need to give it a rest.
Glad to see Raymond and Ron still extremely close like brothers and as Raymond said “My friendship with Ron has not changed over the last decade. I never dated Linda Chung.”
1st time hearding Linda/Ron. I believe that there was a fling btw Linda & Ray. I don’t doubt that there’s m/b a bit of spark or flirts btw Linda and Ron, it’s common b/c Linda admits earlier in her series that she gets too into her character and have some feelings for her co-stars.
I was so confused about what to buy, but this makes it undresatandble.
Haha I definitely don’t think there was anything. I kinda feel like people aren’t getting the whole story too. I do think that Linda does have feelings for her coworkers, well maybe, maybe not. She’s mentioned she likes some of the guys, so it’s probably one sided. And in this case, Raymond and Ron and strictly professional and don’t feel anything for her. Especially if anyone has watched that one interview where Raymond says what type of girl he likes and how he’s concentrating on work first.
And TBH, if anything, I think he’s definitely shown to be closer with Tavia.
I feel that the relationship between Raymond/Tavia and Ron/Tavia is like brothers (hing dai).
Raymond’s denial of his relationships (or wanting to focus on his career as an excuse) is equivalent to his denials of him having plastic surgery. It’s all false! He cannot admit to having relationships or plastic surgery b/c it will affect his popularity. But there is NO WAY that he has not had anything done. Are we all blind?? Come on, give us more credit.
Lol, who noe if actually 2R is dating and Linda is the third party :p. In the picture, 2R looks like a couple so much more than Ronda or Rayda.
@ Lynn: Lol, actually his fans dun mind both (relationship and plastic surgery). Just his anti-fans and couple fans mind both. Dun noe why sometimes ppl mix his fans with his anti fans and couple fans.
I support Ray dating with Ron! LOL they look rly good together!
If they date, they have a 11 years relationship. Awesome :p.
@ Danielle: Yes, they looks so good together, competitive than any couple else.
But, Ron filmed more with Sammul. They have filmed 6 series together and have great chemistry. 😛
Anyway, really like the strong friendships of 2R. I especially like reading about strong friendships in the entertainment industry like
Kenny/Hins
Danson/Jiro/Shu
Dicky/Edmond/Andy H/William
As for female artists, I know Sonija and Charmaine used to be very close and trust each other with their secrets. But, not much news about their friendship now. So, don’t know the situation now.
Ron seems not tat close to Sammul. He always mentions that his best friend is Fung. When fans in Shanghai asked if he noe tat Fung had left Shanghai before him, Ron immediately said he noe and just chatted with Fung on phone.In Ron’s weibo, Ron said tat this scandal dun affect “our relationship”. Lol, who in “our”? Remind me of a Fung’s new song: We are fine.
Just wonder, Hins and Kenny truly admit/or not?
Haha, I know. Just want to mention the frequent collaboration Sammul and Ron. 😛
Sammul is friends with the other siu sangs (since they collaborated with one another often) but, not up to BFF level like between the 2R. Raymond was also very good friend with Joel I think.
Hins and Kenny never admitted to any brokeback relationship, but, they are very open about their close friendship.
When actors don’t admit, I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt and take their word for it. 🙂
LOL I agree with Fox!! Haha. I love them so much!! And Ray and Ron definitely seem super close! They’re so awesome, and like Ray said recently, their relationship never changed! It’s been the same for the last decade!! Always close. Haha I love them.
And LOL at Danielle! I would totally support that!
Does anyone remember that one article that mentioned how Ray would always come over to Ron’s place and relax or eat or play video games? They’re so cute, they sound like a couple to me;)
Just because 2 guys are close doesn’t mean brokeback. It means bromance and nothing more. Guys generally love their best friends more than their wives. Maybe experimental brokeback but not REAL brokeback. I am sure all straights guys at some point are attracted to other men as with all gay guys must be attracted to a woman at some point.
I never knew Ray and Ron aka RayRon are such BFFs? I don’t suppose Sammul is BFFs with anyone. He looks rather not very affectionate.
Real brokeback relationship or not, only them can answer. Fans can “YY” but can’t know the truth until it revealed.
Ron said tat Fung has the key to his apartment and his parents know Fung so well.
Fung is also have bbf with Joel and Bosco, but dun noe it’s as tight as 2R or not.
However, 2R!
I didn’t know Raymond was best friends with Bosco. I thought Bosco was closer to Power Chan.
Yes, they are. Also with Myolie in the triangle :p. Bosco, in his craziest time, call Fung “Honey” and Ron “Darling”.
All these discussions and I can only remember seeing Raymond happily holding hands with Linda during one of TVB’s anniversary shows when the cast of Moonlight Resonance went on stage. He only dropped her hand when someone pointed the cameras to him…
Raymond and Sammul is an eunuch look alike.
Anyone has watched old video clips of Raymond and Linda in 2007 and 2008 can sense the “feeling” Raymond has toward Linda. The reason why their rumor lasted so long is because reporters and TVB colleagues saw how Rayda treated each other OFF-screen. Then, Raymond changed his behavior after Mr. Ng’s name popped up in the news…..
If there is nothing between Rayda, Raymond could have called Linda his “sister” since day one when the rumor broke years ago. Steven Ma and Linda Chung had 4 TVB series together, there is No rumor what-so-ever.
Frankly, who wants to have Raymond as a boyfriend at this stage of his career? Too many crazy girl fans are drooling on him!! Many took out their jealousy on Linda (mostly fans in China) and spread false rumors about her — It is disgusting.
Then, the HK paparazzi just keep making up ridiculous stories to pump up magazine sales. Linda went back to Vancouver for her sister’s wedding. She looks gorgeous and very happy!
As much as Rayda really look like “golden boy jade girl”, I only want to see them on screen. In real life, Linda should look for a man that really loves her. She is such a simple and sweet girl for this kind of behind-the-scene-underground relationship.
Raymond is right to put his career first at his prime age. After kissing so many female artists and having some many on-screen relationship, I wonder if he can be loyal to any girl right now. On top of it, he really does not have time. And, if you ever notice, all his co-stars denied any off-screen relationship with him to avoid being “smeared” some of his crazy fans…..
I remembered in one interview with Linda Chung, she said she likes Steven Ma and Ekin Cheng. As you can see from Linda’s private pics. She’s so close to Steven Ma and as to Raymond I don’t even know what’s between them. I think that their long rumors are so lame and getting extremly boring.
Linda is too cute and pretty. She needs a much taller man that’s got some rugged to him. Raymond is too into his appearances. I saw a video of a few actors getting ready to go to an award show and Ray still didn’t come out of the hotel room. Those guys were teasing that Ray is the one that looks in the mirror for the longest time. That’s funny.
I agree with some people. Ray looks like he got his cheeks and chin done. It’s scary to look at. He looked matured and his babyface is gone. He used to have a softer appearance not it’s just eeww…also those tight pants that you can see his ass crack is just nasty. Looks sorta gay.
Ron is having 4 series next year???? Good for him. Y does Ron look better than Ray is because he got nothing do e on his face. Natural beauty is the key to forever beautiful. The more u mess with your face the more it’s go na get ruin like michael jacksons nose.
If rayda is dating shouldn’t Ray go to attend linda’s sister’s wedding??? Not every girl likes Raymond. We shouldn’t speculate who each of these celebrities are dating until the final end. Even if it is celebrities gets divorce like it’s nothing. I didn’t even know that Charlene got married and now divorced.
I’m sure the smarter celebrities will go for people outside the entetainment industry. Mandy Cho’s husband is so ugly!!!!!!!!
I have to say, Ron does look better than Ray nowadays. He looks so good in the award ceremony. He looks healthy. I hope the heavy workload next year won’t drain him and make him haggard like Raymond.
both of them really brother, i hope never split, and i prefer fungyi.
