HK actress Eva Lai, 62, reveals fiance proposed to her on a beach in Sabah

Hong Kong actress Eva Lai Yin Shan made headlines last month after announcing that she would marry her non-celebrity partner next year.

In a recent interview with Ming Pao Weekly , the 62-year-old revealed that her fiance, a former businessman who is nine years her senior, proposed to her on a beach in Sabah, with close friends present.

“He secretly made all the arrangements beforehand. He took out a ring and roses and proposed to me in front of everyone. It was a warm and romantic moment,” she said.

Lai added that their wedding date falls on the same day as their first date two years ago.

She also revealed that they had known each other through church for more than 20 years but only grew closer after she turned to him for prayers during a difficult period.
