Despite his efforts to provide for his family, Hong Kong singer Steven Cheung remains caught in a difficult struggle for financial stability.
On Sunday (May 25), Cheung, 40, made a plea on his Instagram Story, writing: “I’m in urgent need of a job opportunity, requiring HK$6,800 (RM3,648) today. Help me.”
Not long after, his wife Au Yin Man, made a post of her own on Instagram, sharing: “Just a little effort can bring about a change in life. Sometimes, it’s not enough.”
The couple has four sons aged between one and five.
Earlier this month, Au, 33, revealed that their monthly rent amounts to HK$15,000 (RM8,049).
She said then that the family had already fallen a month and a half behind on payments and risks eviction if the outstanding amount isn’t cleared by the end of the month.
Cheung, who was part of the Cantopop duo Boyz, has taken on various jobs to make ends meet in recent years.
Among them include cable wiring, construction work, distributing fliers and condoms, as well as making food delivery orders.
The singer has struggled to land performance gigs since a 2019 scandal, when he announced his marriage to Au while still dating Hong Kong actress April Leung.
