Taiwanese actor Steve Ma has found love again!
According to Taiwan media reports, the 63-year-old is dating a woman named Jane, who's 26 years his junior.
On Tuesday (Aug 19), Jane took to Weibo to share a video of the couple heading to Hong Kong singer-actor Nicholas Tse's concert together.
'Going on a date and meeting the person who used to live in our earphones back then,' the 37-year-old wrote in the caption.
In a recent livestream, Jane, who works in financial investment, revealed that she first met Ma at a friend's party.
'No one actively pursued the other. We just got together naturally,' she said, adding that she has long been a fan of the actor and his works.
When netizens teased her about their age gap, Jane remained calm and graciously responded: 'Steve and my dad are the same age. It's normal. I don't care at all.'

In her post, she accused Ma's two ex-wives, actresses Tang Yun and Wu Jiani, of not appreciating him.
Ma was married to Tang Yun from 1990 to 1993, and they have a daughter.
He has two sons from his previous marriage to Wu, which lasted from 2007 to 2017.

Ex-TVB star Felix Wong quits acting after wife's death, says he's unemployed now
Hong Kong star Felix Wong Yat-wah stepped away from acting following the passing of his wife, actress Leung Kit-wah, in 2020. Photos: China Press Hong Kong singer-actor Felix Wong Yat-wah was one of the city's biggest teen idols in the 1980s, earning the nickname 'Third Tiger' as part of TVB's Five Tiger Generals alongside Michael Miu, Kent Tong, Andy Lau and Tony Leung Chiu-wai. Over the years, the 63-year-old has starred in dramas such as Demi-Gods And Semi-Devils (1982), The Legend Of The Condor Heroes (1983), Looking Back In Anger (1989) and more. However, he stepped away from acting after the passing of his wife, actress Leung Kit-wah, who died of organ failure in 2020. She was 59. In a previous interview on actress Lee San-san's online programme, Wong described Leung as his 'No.1 fan' who often gave feedback on his performances. 'I only improved because of her sharp analytical skills. Now that she's gone and can no longer see me act, what's the point of continuing?' he said at that time. Recently, a netizen posted a video of Wong on Xiaohongshu, noting that the former TVB star has been unemployed for some time. His last listed work on IMDB is the 2023 short film A League Of Their Own . 'Mr Wong says he's unemployed, but he still has savings and is doing his best,' the netizen wrote in the caption. In the clip, Wong was seen signing autographs and asking a fan if they had opened their gift. It's reported that he still spends part of his savings to buy gifts for his supporters. These days, Wong spends much of his time with Hong Kong's Celebrity Football Team, often travelling to mainland China for matches. He also accepts occasional singing gigs, most recently appearing as a guest performer at a concert in Hong Kong.

Actress Ada Choi says husband Max Zhang had a heart attack in Singapore
Ada Choi and Max Zhang married in 2008 and have three children aged five to 14. Photo: Ada Choi/Weibo Hong Kong actress Ada Choi revealed that her husband, Chinese actor Max Zhang, suffered a heart attack while the family was vacationing in Singapore. Zhang disclosed in the first episode of Chinese reality show Call Me By Fire 2025 , released on Aug 9, that he almost died while he was overseas with his family on April 17. 'I felt pain, had difficulty breathing and was covered in cold sweat,' Zhang told Korean-American singer-actor Lee Seung-hyun on the show about the incident. 'I could not say anything at that time and felt like I was falling into an abyss.' Zhang and Choi, both 51, married in 2008 and have three children aged five to 14. He is known for starring in martial arts films such as SPL II: A Time For Consequences (2015) and Master Z: Ip Man Legacy (2018). Zhang recalled on the show that Choi and their children were about 10m away, and were about to board a duck boat for a tour. 'I told myself I couldn't die here as I was overseas,' he said. 'I held on and told myself not to collapse.' He saw a doctor soon after he returned to Hong Kong. The doctor told him he could have died during the heart attack, Zhang said. Choi was asked about the incident while attending the lensing ceremony for TV drama Behind The Queens on Aug 17. 'He experienced two episodes of discomfort in March and went to see a doctor, who performed an electrocardiogram test,' Choi said. 'The report showed that he was fine.' She said the family then travelled to Singapore in April. 'He suddenly couldn't breathe, couldn't move, couldn't speak and had to sit down. I left him behind and proceeded with the duck tour, thinking he had caught a cold.' Choi said she realised later that something was wrong when she returned and saw his face turning pale, although he said he felt fine after a while. 'While we chatted the next morning, he said tearfully that at the moment the day before, he was looking at the four of us and felt like he was about to pass out and might never see us again. He had to get back up and he did,' she recounted. 'He cried while he was talking and I had never seen him like that before.' Choi accompanied her husband for the health screening in Hong Kong. A computed tomography scan found that about 80% of his blood vessels were blocked, and he had to undergo an angioplasty to insert stents immediately. 'I felt so apologetic when I learnt about his condition and cried on my knees, wondering how I could be such a wife,' Choi said. 'Knowing that we could be separated forever in an instant, I hugged him. I would have gone crazy if something had happened to him.' She said the whole family has grown closer as a result of this incident and now pays more attention to exercise, adding that Zhang has also cut down on oily food. 'We have to count our blessings,' Choi said. 'I almost became a widow, and he almost died in a foreign land.' – The Straits Times/Asia News Network
