HK-born actor Chapman To celebrates 20th wedding anniversary with ex-TVB star Kristal Tin
Hong Kong-born Taiwanese actor Chapman To and former TVB star Kristal Tin recently marked their 20th wedding anniversary with an intimate gathering of close friends.
Among the guests was actor Anthony Wong, who made a special trip to Taiwan to join the pair in celebrating the milestone.
On June 7, To, 53, shared a throwback photo from his wedding to Tin, 47, surrounded by famous friends such as Andy Lau, Wong Jing and Shawn Yue – all of whom reportedly served as his groomsmen.
The couple tied the knot in June 2005 after six years of dating.
'Today, 20 years later, some people remain while others have moved on. I wish everyone happiness. To me, happiness means letting go of the past, not worrying about the future and simply embracing the present moment,' To captioned his Facebook post.
He also uploaded a photo with Anthony Wong on his Instagram Story, adding that the 63-year-old is the only groomsman he still keeps in touch with after all these years.
The actor then capped off the celebration by posting a short video of Tin talking about how he had transformed her life.
Meanwhile, Tin reflected on Instagram how her perception of the word 'tolerance' has evolved over the years.
The Brother's Keeper (2012) star admitted that she once perceived the term negatively, saying: 'Why do I have to tolerate things after marriage? Didn't we love each other so much that we couldn't help but be together in the first place?'
However, Tin shared that her perception has now shifted, and she views tolerance not as putting up with one's flaws but peacefully accepting them.
'Happy 20th anniversary. Please continue to give me your guidance in the future,' she wrote, alongside a photo with To and their dog.

Bobcat Company and Actor and Director Josh Duhamel Give Back to the Los Angeles Fire Department
Bobcat UTV Donated as Part of its 'Work Worth Doing' Initiative Supports LAFD's First, Full-time, Paid Hand Crew LOS ANGELES, June 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Award-winning actor and Hollywood director Josh Duhamel recently partnered with Bobcat Company for a surprise visit to Los Angeles Fire Department (LAFD) Station 88 to deliver a powerful gift: a brand-new Bobcat UV34XL utility vehicle. The donation was part of Bobcat's 'Work Worth Doing' campaign—a nationwide initiative celebrating the work of everyday people who are making a difference. Duhamel, a Bobcat ambassador, personally handed over the keys to the UTV in recognition of the LAFD's first, full-time, paid wildland hand crew, who help mitigate and control wildfires and will use the UTV on the frontlines of future fires. 'I think this is some of the most honorable work that you can do. It takes a special kind of person to sign up as a firefighter, especially in a place like Los Angeles where wildfires run rampant,' said Duhamel. 'We believe, myself and Bobcat, that the firefighters deserve the best tools out there, and that's why we wanted to donate this machine. I think that anytime you can support those who are protecting others is definitely work worth doing.' Bobcat is also supporting the Los Angeles Fire Department Foundation by donating a portion of proceeds from the sale of its limited-edition hat Duhamel is seen wearing during his recent visit to the LAFD. 'We are grateful for Bobcat and Josh's commitment to advancing our efforts with the generous donation of a Bobcat UTV,' said Adam VanGerpen, Captain and Public Information Officer, Los Angeles City Fire Department. 'This will enhance our hand crew's efficiency in mitigating and fighting wildfires, enabling us to achieve so much more in our mission to keep the community safe.' Bobcat kicked off its 'Work Worth Doing' initiative in May by teaming up with entrepreneur and Magnolia co-founder Chip Gaines to surprise a deserving neighbor and a United States veteran, Jason Shields, with a Bobcat T595 compact track loader. Shields is the founder of Hoof Haven Sanctuary, a non-profit that rescues endangered or injured horses, rehabilitates them and provides them with a forever home. The 'Work Worth Doing' initiative continues throughout 2025 with other Bobcat ambassadors, including country musician Justin Moore and professional BMX rider Ryan Nyquist, visiting and rewarding people making a difference in their communities. Others can get involved on social media by sharing their 'work worth doing' by tagging @BobcatCompany and using hashtag #WorkWorthDoing.

Labubu toy sculpture sold for US$150,000 at China auction
SHANGHAI: A Beijing auction house has sold a four-foot-tall sculpture of a viral plush toy character for more than US$150,000, as global demand for the Chinese-designed Labubu dolls reaches fever pitch. The rabbit-like figures sporting mischievous grins began as a character created by Hong Kong-born artist Kasing Lung, and are made by Beijing-based toy brand Pop Mart. They have been endorsed by celebrities such as Rihanna and Dua Lipa, and fans have queued overnight outside stores hoping to snag one, with analysts pointing to the phenomenon as evidence of China's growing soft power. On Tuesday, a teal sculpture depicting a Labubu character with a furry body and head fetched an eye-watering 1.08 million yuan (US$150,260) at an auction held in Beijing, according to the auction house's app. The sculpture is "the only piece of its kind in the world", according to Yongle International Auction. It was offered alongside other Labubu paraphernalia including a brown statue that sold for 820,000 yuan. Pop Mart has over 400 stores globally, including 30 US branches. The worldwide frenzy has seen people go to desperate lengths to acquire their own Labubu. Last month a London branch of Pop Mart suspended in-store sales of the toys, fearing violence from would-be buyers who failed to get their hands on the limited-edition Labubus. In Singapore, CCTV footage captured a family stealing Labubu dolls from a claw machine, according to Singaporean online media outlet AsiaOne. Burglars broke into a store in California last week and took several Labubu dolls along with electronics and other valuables, American news outlet ABC reported. In China, the toys have been promised as freebies for new bank customers – an incentive quickly shut down by local regulators, according to Chinese media reports. The toys have spawned a booming resale market as well as an online community of fans sharing tips on how to customise their dolls. Knockoffs – many of which are also made in China – have flooded online platforms, dubbed "Lafufus" by social media users.

Actor Shaun Chen saves more after moving family from Singapore to Johor
Malaysian actor Shaun Chen revealed in September last year that he had moved his family from Singapore to Johor. Photo: Shaun Chen/Instagram Local actor Shaun Chen made headlines in September last year after revealing that he had relocated his family across the Causeway. The 46-year-old, who's based in Singapore, now reportedly lives in a rented home in Johor with his Malaysian wife Celine and their two daughters – Nellie, nine, and Neia, seven. In a recent interview with actor-host Allan Wu, Chen described the move back to his home country as a 'natural and logical' decision. 'Since we're Malaysians, we have an advantage. We can reduce our living expenses and stay in a bigger home. 'If we had stayed in Singapore, I don't know if I'd ever have a chance to stay in a landed home as I'm not Singaporean,' he said. Chen, who's a permanent resident in Singapore, also cited the rising cost of education and general living expenses in the country as factors behind his family's move to Johor. According to the Mediacorp star, the fees for public school and after-school care for permanent residents in Singapore is on par with the fees for international schools in Malaysia. When asked to estimate how much he's been able to save since relocating, Chen answered that the figure falls between 30% and 50%. Although he now enjoys a more comfortable lifestyle in Malaysia, the actor hasn't ruled out the possibility of living in Singapore again in the future. 'I don't think it's a downgrade. I've upgraded my lifestyle,' he said, before quickly adding, 'But that doesn't mean Singapore isn't good!'
