TVB actor Kenneth Ma opens up about celebrating first Chinese New Year as a married man
Hong Kong actor Kenneth Ma is celebrating Chinese New Year for the first time as a married man.

He tied the knot with TVB actress Roxanne Tong in Koh Samui, Thailand on Dec 16 last year.

In a recent interview with Hong Kong's Ming Pao, Ma, 50, shared that the celebration doesn't feel significantly different from previous years.

The TVB star mentioned that before even becoming a husband, he already had his own tasks assigned to him during CNY.

"I'm in charge of buying stuff at the market and cleaning the house as per traditional Chinese customs," he said.

When asked whether family and relatives have inquired him and Tong, 36, about their plans for starting a family, Ma laughed and said he's accustomed to such questions.

"When we first announced our relationship, people asked us to get married. When we got married, they asked us to have a baby," he said.

The Queen Of News (2023) star added that both he and his wife aren't pressured about starting a family and will let nature take its course.

"I'm not in a hurry. As long as my wife is healthy and happy, that's more than enough," he said.

In the meantime, Ma wants to focus on working hard and earning enough money for his future kids.

Reflecting on the past year, the actor expressed gratitude for his marriage to Tong, adding that it's his biggest accomplishment in 2023.

"I feel that the greatest gain is marrying a good wife for sure. My CNY wish is for everyone to be healthy and for the whole family to be together," he said.

Last year, Ma told Hong Kong media that he's interested in starting a family.

However, he would likely have "one or two children at most" considering the demands of his career and the substantial time commitment required for parenting.
