A video from Apple Daily surfaced today which featured famous Hong Kong singer, Andy Hui Chi-on (許志安), 51, making out with an actress, Jacqueline Wong Sum-wing (黃心穎), 30, in a car. Both of the celebrities are attached. Andy is married to Canto-pop Queen, Sammi Cheng, while Jacqueline is dating TVB actor Kenneth Ma.
The footage is believed to be filmed on April 3, as the pair are wearing the same clothes when they attended the birthday celebrations of a mutual friend.
The media scrutiny has been focused on Andy Hui so far because he is the more famous celebrity of the two cheating parties. In fact, for many of us who don’t follow the Hong Kong entertainment scene closely, the first question asked when we hear about the scandal would be “Who is Jacqueline Wong?”
Who is Jacqueline Wong?
Via wikipedia, Jacqueline Wong Sum-wing (黃心穎) is an actress and television presenter under TVB management. , Her birthday is on 23 January 1989 and she was born in New York City in the United States.
She has starred in a bunch of TVB drama serials, but mostly playing bit roles or support roles with only one second female lead role in the 2017 serial, Provocateur (與諜同謀). She have two first female lead roles coming up in 2019 for the serials, The Maid Alliance (丫鬟大聯盟) and Finding Her Voice (牛下女高音).

Given how conservative and unforgiving the Chinese entertainment scene is, we are not sure if she will still get to keep her female lead roles or whether she will be replaced or have her scenes cut out or reduced significantly.
What is Jacqueline Wong famous for?
She is probably most famous for being caught on video making out with Andy Hui in a car now.
Before this saga, Jacqueline Wong first came to public attention when she won the Miss Hong Kong 2012 first runner-up title and placed in the top 12 talents at Miss World 2013. Her claim to fame was when she started dating TVB actor Kenneth Ma (馬國明). Jacqueline and Kenneth have been dating for about two years since 2017 and actually had marriage in mind. We are not sure if there will be a change in plan now, given the current scandal.
From her Instagram, netizens have pointed out that Andy appeared in a number of her Instagram snaps in recent months. He also celebrated her 30th birthday on Jan 23 with her. It was also pointed out that you’re more likely to see Jacqueline on Andy’s Instagram feed than his own wife.
How long has Jacqueline and Andy been together?
No one knows how long Andy and Jacqueline had been fooling around together, but in a sudden press conference today, Andy broke his silence. He apologised completely for his actions and admitted to cheating on his wife Sammi, without going into the specifics.
A solemn-looking Andy Hui apologised for causing embarrassment and pain to his loved ones and claimed that he had a lot of drink that evening of the video recording. He then manned up and said it’s still not an excuse for his behaviour and went on to say that he felt disgusted about himself after reading the news reports.
“From now on, I will be stopping all work commitments until I find my true self. I do not know how to move on from here. I hope to be given time to re-examine myself.” Added Andy.
Is it the end of the road for Andy and Sammi? Read about it here.
It seems like Andy would want to distance himself from Jacqueline Wong after this saga. It is likely it was just a fling for him. Jacqueline has not spoken publicly about the scandal yet, so we still do not know her side of the story.
Morale of the story?
Don’t cheat. Period.
If you want to cheat, don’t do it in a private hire car or taxi.
