Veronica Shiu leaves TVB after a decade

24 Jul - Ten years after winning Miss Hong Kong 2014, Veronica Shiu revealed that she is now no longer under TVB contract.

On 22 July, the beauty queen announced the news on social media, revealing how she was able to fulfil her dream of competing in the pageant while doing her Psychology degree, and joining showbiz afterwards with no apparent understanding about the entertainment industry.

"I do know that I love to perform, so I put in my best effort for this challenge. I feel very fortunate that TVB had given me the opportunities to try a wide variety of different roles, I've acted in sitcoms and dramas, and hosted for multiple live and lifestyle/travel shows. Through all my works (whether it be dancing, promos, dramas or hosting), I discovered countless new things and about myself," she wrote.

Thanking all the TVB executives, production teams and crews, Veronica stated that she has learned new things with every role that she had done.

"To everyone wondering about my next career steps, actually not a lot will change and I will keep myself busy hosting MC events, give show appearances, and do volunteer/charity work. It's going to be a year of eventful adventures, trying new things, and positive growth. I'm excited to explore new horizons, make new discoveries and friendly opportunities! Here we go, we'll keep you posted!"
