Since becoming a father last year, Andy Lau (劉德華)
has reduced his work load to enjoy family life. With Andy’s daughter
turning one year old earlier, reports surfaced that his wife Carol Chu (朱丽倩) hoped to give him a son, and that she was already pregnant.
Andy and Carol’s love has spanned for more than two decades. In 1986,
24-year-old Andy traveled to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia for a tournament
with the Hong Kong Celebrity Soccer Team and fell in love with Carol,
who was 18 years old at the time. They shuffled their long-distance
relationship between Malaysia and Hong Kong, purchasing properties in
both locations. As Andy’s career soared in the 90s and the 2000s, the
couple postponed plans to start a family. Finally, Carol became
successfully pregnant and gave birth to Hanna Lau (劉向蕙) in May 2012. Andy became a doting father and it was understood that he wanted to have a second child.
At an earlier promotion for Switch <天机·富春山居图>,
Andy dismissed recent rumors that Carol was pregnant. “Didn’t I say
that the Internet rumors are false? If I have to clarify every fake
story, that’s impossible. So I simply will not respond to it.” With
their recent wedding anniversary, Andy said that they did not exchange
gifts and spent it in their usual fashion.
Director Ambition
With the recent trend of actors producing and directing their own
films, Andy also hopes to direct his own project. However, it takes time
to prepare the right script.Time is a luxury for Andy, and directing
may have to wait another two years. In the past two to three years, he
had conceived a script about firemen, but he was too slow to put it into
production and there were already two firemen-themed movies this year.
For a future directing project, Andy hopes to film a comedy.
