They kept it quiet for two years.But actor Carlo Ng Ka-Lok and Violet Chow Wai-wai have come clean. Yes, the TVB bit player and the daughter of Chevalier Group founder Chow Yei-ching are an item and will get married next month. The gossip broke when entertainment snoops found the couple's name at a marriage registry. Since then, the hounds have been on their tail day and night.
The two finally faced the music when they showed up at the Swank Shop's fashion show this week.
'We are used to being followed by the Chinese gossip magazines' reporters now,' Ng said. 'They are everywhere - even at 7-Eleven.'
But the publicity-shy couple is laying down paparazzi ground rules for their coming 'small, private' nuptials.
According to the 34-year-old actor: 'We will agree to let the media take some pictures after the wedding ceremony - only if they show us some respect and wait till we're ready for them. If they try to sneak in, we'll refuse to deal with them in the future.'
