Louisa Mak's husband's recruitment ad reveals more than intended
31 Jan - Former TVB actress Louisa Mak's pregnancy journey has taken an unexpected turn after her husband Keith Shing inadvertently revealed their baby's due date.
The revelation surfaced as Keith had posted a recruitment advertisement for a domestic helper with a detailed job description.
As reported on Mingpao, the said ad recently circulated online, showing that Keith was looking for another help on top of their long-term helper who has already been working for them for over 10 years.
Some of the requirements include experience in taking care of newborns, willing to work as a team and at least two consecutive contracts with the same employer.
He also added that they need a domestic help "to arrive in Mar/April 2025". The timing requirement - specifying the dates - effectively revealed the couple's anticipated delivery window.
It was back in November last year that Louisa revealed that she is pregnant with their first baby.
The couple, who met on the set of "Young and Restless", tied the knot in January 2024, and held their wedding reception in March the same year.

Thousands turnout for Grayslake wine, art and performance event; ‘We're showcasing our town'
Approximately 2,500 people experienced visual and performance art on Saturday at this year's Arts Festival and Wine Tasting in downtown Grayslake. Adults could sample varieties of wine from several wineries to the sounds of live music on what turned out to be a nice day, weather-wise. Wine-tasting enthusiast Judith Mason of Niles said, 'I love Lake County. One of my best friends lives up here, so I'll spend the whole day up here. I come up probably once a month, easily. It's like a little vacation.' The Grayslake Chamber of Commerce presented the event, which featured 34 booths and food available for purchase. 'It brings people into the town so they can see what we have here in the Village Center,' chamber executive director Maribeth Hamm said. 'We're showcasing our town and all of our businesses.' Kelcie and Colleen Keith of Grayslake were delighted to find the festival while on a morning bike ride with children Lachlan, 5, and Lorelai, 3. 'It's magical,' Colleen Keith said. The Keith family viewed artist tents with inventory ranging from framed still images to jewelry and handmade crochet plushies. 'I, personally, am really into photography, nature-based art,' Keith said. 'Very thankful stuff like this gets put on.' Sarah Ratschan of Buffalo Grove said Grayslake is 'a great community with a great downtown, and lots to do. Very family friendly.' The Ratschan siblings reacted with surprise to the artwork shown at the shared booth of Painter Kelsie Morway of Round Lake Beach, and her father, Bill of Antioch, shared a booth featuring bright masks he had made. 'Because I have an artistic daughter, I just started doing these masks about six or seven months ago as a wintertime hobby,' he said. 'It's a therapeutic, enjoyable thing for me.' A performance by the Spotlight Company of the Dance Connection Grayslake school drew a large audience. Company members are, 'the community outreach ambassadors for the studio,' according to Bridget Blake, the owner of Dance Connection Grayslake. 'Throughout the year, we perform at festivals like this, but we also perform in the winter … perform at nursing homes and retirement communities,' she said. 'What I love about, especially Grayslake, is this kind of familiarity everybody has with one another … this comfort and connection with community.' Visitors also included a meet-up group with participants from Winthrop Harbor, Grayslake, Volo, Woodstock, Winthrop Harbor, Round Lake, Mount Prospect and Round Lake Beach. 'These are all my peeps,' meetup organizer Sue Weller of Grayslake said. 'There's a lot to do in Lake County … a lot of great festivals.' Participants in the meetup sampled wine, she said, but also did 'a little shopping, and (looked) for some jewelry, or some artwork.' 'I love to see all the talent,' group member Cindy Hohoff of Woodstock said. 'There's so much talent in these art fairs.' Ellen Russell of Round Lake, who was also part of the meetup, said, 'I'm going to be visiting some friends back East, so I'm looking for some gifts to take along that are from the area. It's a very pleasant little event.' Jeff Trager, a wine consultant from Wauconda, poured wine samples from vineyards including South Africa and Provence, France for Louis Glunz Wines. The Glunz company has a Grayslake tasting room and a Lincolnshire warehouse. 'The whole family grew up in Grayslake,' Trager said about the Glunz family, which also maintains a Paso Robles, California, vineyard. 'Wine to me is food; it really is,' he said. 'Wine adds to your meal. Wine adds to your experience. 'When you're eating, you're with family, you're with friends, you're smiling, you're laughing,' Trager added. 'Wine just brings that out. It's good for you. It's good for your soul. It makes life happier.'

The TVB artiste, who made his debut in showbiz after winning a singing competition in 2001, will appear on the show as a judge, bringing sincere encouragement and comments to the participating families, and also injecting more vitality and highlights into the show. Speaking about his judging stint, Edwin said, "Usually when I come to Malaysia, I am the one who sings for everyone. This time it is my turn to sit down and listen to my Malaysian friends singing, because I know that many people here sing very well!" As for what he would emphasise on when it comes to judging, Edwin said, "Of course singing must be good, but tacit understanding is also important. I will pay attention to their cooperation. Whether they can interact naturally and cooperatively on stage are also crucial." He also mentioned that he hopes to be inspired by the performances of parent-child groups in the programme, and have the opportunity to form a father-son duo with his son to perform on stage together in the future. The show has already completed the first round of recording and will officially air on 8TV in early July. (Photo Source: Edwin IG, Oriental Daily)
