Ruco Chan’s Mother Doesn’t Like Phoebe Sin?
Since Ruco Chan (陳展鵬) and Phoebe Sin‘s <單文柔> romance was revealed, the paparazzi closely followed them. In March, the couple were speculated to be moving in together after being spotted on a furniture shopping spree. Although it was said Ruco’s mother approved of her son’s new girlfriend at first, the increase of negative gossip surrounding Phoebe made her change her mind.
While competing in Miss Hong Kong 2016, Phoebe was labeled a “gossip queen”, someone who likes to bootlick, start cliques, and tattle tale on others. Phoebe was also labelled a flirt. While she was still actively pursuing Ruco, it was speculated that she simultaneously went after Mr. Hong Kong winner Jackson Lai (黎振燁), and first runner-up Karl Ting (丁子朗).
When these rumors were addressed by Ruco’s mother over dinner one night, Phoebe was photographed with an awkward express. With conversation barely flowing between the two women, Phoebe frequently looked over to Ruco for help. Known for being a filial son, Ruco did not want to be caught in between the two women and chose to look at his food the entire night.

if the girl can’t even survive a dinner with her potential mother in law, the relationship is hardly going to survive if the guy is a filial son.
Good luck to her. Sound like she needs it. Can’t be helped as Ruco is a good catch.
@happybi
Mother-in-law will be part of the marriage package.
The first photo especially draws attention to the awkwardness between Phoebe and Ruco’s mom. Their body language is revealing…wonder what unpleasant conversation they were having.
@jayne maybe ruco’s mum asked her if she plans to have kids right after marriage? the atmosphere does look rather tense.
ruco’s mum doesn’t look young.
In this day and age, people must still get their parents’ approval to marry the ones they love? That’s not being filial, that’s being stupid!
@creditor ruco must have brought his gf to have a meal with his mum. i think it’s normal…but the guy should have sat in between the 2 women so as to diffuse any awkward situations.
@creditor There could be only two explanations for this:
1) This is an arcane cultural practice still prevalent in HK
or
2) It reveals some degree of family dysfunction that explains why he is still such a “coddled child” even at the age of 40.
@creditor Oops I forgot a third and most likely explanation:
This is fake news created by the papparazzi who took a series of photo and pick out the one that would support their fictitious narrative. For all we know, this photo might have been taken in the midst of their teasing and playing around with one another.
@aiya true, too often the hk papparazzi will make a big deal over nothing, with nothing to back their claims beyond a seemingly ordinary photo: are they fighting? are they talking about marriage? are they calling security to escort those bums taking their pictures? find out next week…
Perhaps they should have considered going to a more private establishment which is less accessible to the paparazzi (not necessarily a high end eatery). Not throughout their relationship but at this stage when there is so much speculation.
many HK guys are still mummy’s boy.
