Helen Tam has been married for twenty years?


24 Jul - Rumour has it that Hong Kong television personality Helen Tam and live-in boyfriend Stephen Chou have actually been married for a long time.

Helen and Stephen's romance sparked when she was just a teenager, when Stephen came to Helen's high school as a substitute teacher. The two of them started dating after she graduated and remained loyal to each other ever since.

Despite nearly getting married in 1991, Helen reportedly told the media a few years ago that she is not a firm believer in marriage, and that the two of them will continue living together as lovers in their home in Discovery Bay. She also said that despite being a host of a children television show, she and Stephen never thought about having children together.

However, according to Mingpao, sources recently claimed that the lovebirds are actually married, and have been together as husband and wife for 20 years. It was said that the couple tied the knot in secret, and that nobody else knew about the marriage except for family members.

It was also alleged that Helen decided to keep the marriage a secret as a respect to Stephen, who doesn't like to be at the centre of media attention.

However, when asked about it recently, the 53-year-old declined to make any comment about the rumours. She simply responded, "I don't mind [the rumours]. Thank you for your concern."
