#SHOWBIZ: HK actor Bowie Wu regrets not giving his late wife flowers
HONG KONG: Veteran Hong Kong actor and television host Bowie Wu Fung recently spoke candidly about his marriage and personal regrets. According to Dimsun Daily yesterday, Wu admitted to carrying the weight of personal regrets, primarily that he wasn't present for his children during their early years. "I didn't get along well with them back then. I rarely met them because I was so busy with work. Whenever I returned home, they would all be sleeping," he said. Wu has five children with his late wife, Lui Wing Ho, who passed away from an illness in 2016. He revealed that when he married in 1957, his boss had insisted they keep it a secret as he was at the peak of his career. Despite the secrecy, Lui remained patient and focused on raising their children. "My wife is the love of my life. I don't know what I would've done without her help, so I'll always miss her," he said. One of the actor's lingering regrets is never having given his wife flowers while she was alive. To make up for it, he now places flowers in front of her photograph every few days. "I'd also talk to her each night," he added. Wu is currently in a relationship with 90-year-old actress Helena Law Lan. The couple went public in September last year, with all of Wu's children expressing their full support for the romance. Since beginning his acting career in 1953, Wu, 93, has appeared in major dramas such as Virtues Of Harmony II (2003-2005), The W Files (2003), and Forensic Heroes III (2011). In recognition of his contributions to the industry, he was honoured with the Lifetime Achievement Award at the 2023 Hong Kong Film Awards.
