#SHOWBIZ: HK actor Roger Kwok, 60, denies dating actress Hilary Chong, 23
HONG KONG: Popular actor Roger Kwok has dismissed claims suggesting a romantic relationship with actress and former Miss Hong Kong, Hilary Chong.
Rumours began circulating after tabloids reported that Kwok, 60, had been giving private tennis lessons to Chong, 23, following their recent collaboration on the TVB drama Golden Forest.
In a recent interview, Kwok urged the public not to take the rumours seriously, adding that such speculations could interfere with his chances of finding love.
"Please don't make wild guesses and stop me from finding my true soulmate! I'm not seeing anyone currently, but if these rumours keep spreading, it will only scare people away," he said.
Kwok, who finalised his divorce from former TVB star Cindy Au in 2024 after 18 years of marriage, described Chong as intelligent and gracious.
Chong has also laughed off the rumours, reiterating that there will never be room for romantic development as she and Kwok share a "father-daughter relationship".
The TVB actress, crowned Miss Hong Kong in 2023, further clarified that other Golden Forest co-stars were present on the day she played tennis with Kwok.
"Our group is like one big family. Everyone shares a good familial relationship," she said.

Despite the common belief in the so-called "seven-year itch"– where relationships are said to hit a rough patch around the seven-year mark – the 48-year-old isn't worried. In fact, he and Sin, 35, seem to be going strong, often appearing together at public events and brand endorsements, including a jewellery showcase in April. Speaking to the media at the event, Chan acknowledged the superstition with good humour, saying they dressed up especially for the occasion as their anniversary approaches. As translated by he said: 'It's not that kind of itch. I've spent the past seven years 'raising' Phoebe – keeping her healthy and happy.' Meanwhile, Sin – who looked elegant in her black and white outfit adorned with diamond accessories – added with a laugh: 'All the diamond accessories that I picked today are long, making me look slimmer.'
