Hong Kong actor Roger Kwok has dismissed the unfounded claims suggesting a romantic relationship with former Miss Hong Kong winner Hilary Chong.
Rumours began circulating after tabloids reported that Kwok, 60, had been giving private tennis lessons to Chong, 23, following their recent collaboration on the TVB drama Golden Forest.
In an interview at a charity event, Kwok urged the public not to take these rumours seriously, adding that such speculations could interfere with his chances of finding love.
“Please don’t make wild guesses and stop me from finding my true soulmate! I’m not seeing anyone currently, but if these rumours keep spreading, it will only scare people away,” he said.
Kwok, who finalised his divorce with former TVB star Cindy Au in 2024 after 18 years of marriage, went on to describe Chong as intelligent and gracious.
He also made it clear that such gossip wouldn’t affect their interactions moving forward.
Meanwhile, Chong has also laughed off the romance rumours, stressing that there will never be room for romantic development as she and Kwok share a “father-daughter relationship”.
The TVB actress, who was crowned Miss Hong Kong in 2023, also clarified that there were other Golden Forest co-stars present on the day she played tennis with Kwok.
“Our group is like one big family. Everyone shares a good familial relationship,” she said.
