Gaile Lok Sacrifices Her Title to Protect Leon Lai’s Career
There are rumors that Leon Lai and Gaile Lok got married in a low profile wedding in Maldives. This has caused a stir in the entertainment industry. This perfect couple has won the acceptance of the public. But Gaile doesn’t want to affect Leon’s career which is still in its’ prime. She is following protocol of other mega-stars. She sent a short message and responded to reporters announcing that she didn’t get married and is currently on vacation. Gaile hopes that everyone would give her some privacy. It appears that she is resigned to be the woman behind her man.
Leon and Gaile are the targets for interviews ever since the rumors about a secret wedding in Maldives circulated. The reporter tried to call Gaile’s cellphone and it was obvious that the cell phone was using roaming services. No one picked up and the phone was switched off afterwards. All calls were re-directed to a voicemail. In the end, the newspaper reporter sent text messages to confirm the rumors with Gaile. Yesterday, past midnight (around 12 o’clock), she responded with: “I will never get marry [sic]. On vocation [sic]. Take care!”
Gaile’s response was suspicious. Why did she announce that she will never get married? Yesterday, early morning, the reporter sent another message asking if Gaile was already married so she would not get married again. Gaile responded in the afternoon of the same day with a text message to the reporter. Her text message was: “Not married. Didn't get marry [sic].....On vacation now. Take care n [sic] please give me some privacy. Thank you, don't want to be disturb [sic].”
In the text message, Gaile stated that she didn’t get married. It is believed that her actions were to protect the groom, Leon. She doesn’t want to affect his career and that is why the pair went to Maldives to have a low profile wedding. The newly wed’s company and label hasn’t even received news about the marriage yet. Only their close friends were invited to the wedding ceremony. All the signs suggest that Gaile is determined to quietly be Leon’s woman in the background.
Leon’s label A Music executive Alvin Wong suddenly showed up at the airport yesterday. The reporters went up to him to ask if he attended Leon’s wedding. Once he heard that, he was stunned and he expressed that he didn’t hear about Leon getting married. He also revealed that he didn’t contact Leon and announced that he won’t talk about private matters.

Gaile Lok Afraid of Breaching Her Contracts & Denies Her Marriage
The golden couple Leon Lai and Gaile has reportedly secretly married in Maldives last week. This has caused a stir within the city. Mrs. Lai denies being married because she is still carrying out several commercial and slimming contracts. The contract states that she cannot get married or have children before the contract ends. To protect her image as a spokesperson, Gaile needs to deny her marriage or face huge compensatory fines.
The Leon-Gaile romance has finally blossomed. The newly weds quietly flew to Maldives last week to have a secret wedding. It was a highly protected wedding except the leaked news of the wedding. It was first exposed by this newspaper. This has made Gaile nervous and lead to her denial of the marriage.
According to information, there is a difficult reason for Gaile’s denial. She is the face of quite a few commercials and is the spokesperson for a slimming company. To protect the products, there are a few conditions in the contract which does not allow marriage and child birth during the course of the contract. If there is a breach of contract, there is an enormous fine. But Gaile is risking contract violation to be with the person she loves. This shows how much she loves Leon. Also, 查小欣 on her show explained the reason behind artiste denying their marriage. She said: “If you are the spokesperson for a commercial, they would specify that you need to be single. Once you get married, you breach the contract and need to pay compensation. Even if you are married, you would deny it.” Yesterday, she called Leon’s manager, 陳善之, and he said that Leon will be returning to Hong Kong in two days. Gaile’s modeling agency announced through their spokesperson that they would not question their model’s private life. The spokesperson said: “We give our models a lot of freedom. We do not interfere with their private life.”

Leon Lai & Gaile Lok Quiet on Marriage Rumors
Last week, news broke that Leon Lai Ming and model girlfriend, Gaile Lok got married in the Maldives. The couple arrived separately at Hong Kong and Taiwan airports yesterday amidst a large crowd of reporters.
Regarding the marriage rumors, both Leon and Gaile answered, "No comment." However, both Leon and Gaile appeared to be in especially high spirits and could not mask the new joys of marriage.
Since Gaile had to appear at a Chloe fashion show in Taiwan, Leon sent an assistant from his production company to aid Gaile. Like Leon, Gaile was not spotted wearing a wedding ring. Asked whether she and Leon got married in the Maldives, she only smiled and responded in English, "No comment!"
While attending a Chloe show later in the evening, Gaile said, "I am not pregnant. I did not get married, otherwise my parents would know. However, Leon would be the ideal man to propose to me."
Reflecting on the trip in the Maldives, Gaile said, "This vacation was perfect and romantic. However, the only imperfection was that too many people called me to ask whether I had gotten married."
When reporters teased Gaile's new weight gain, she admitted that she needed to lose weight. Responding to reporters' further inquiries on the alleged marriage, Gaile wrote in a text message, "Of course not my dear，must be misunderstanding，thanks!"
Apparently, Gaile was not ready to admit that she became Leon's wife yet!
Additional Details- Leon & Gaile's Romance
Leon Lai and Gaile Lok have dated for several years and Leon has always been attentive towards Gaile's living, eating, and daily needs.
In March 2007, Gaile's old nude photographs (taken during a modeling session) circulated. Leon prevented the photographer, Ike, from widely circulating the photographs and gave an expensive designer coat as a gift.
Both Leon and Gaile love fine dining. In the early days of their romance, they were often spotted dining at the Grand Hyatt Hotel. The couple often held parties to wildly celebrate holidays and special occasions.
While filming movie, 《梅蘭芳》in October 2007 in Beijing, Leon purchased a luxury $60 million (HKD) 6,000 square feet home. Leon intended to live with Gaile at the new home on St. Andrews Place.
In 2007, Leon spent $3.8 million (HKD) on a new Bentley car. Leon was often spotted driving Gaile around in his new car.
Leon Lai and Gaile have not appeared in the public together ever since marriage rumours were publicized. Last night, Gaile came out to attend the “Ed Hardy” function. The guest list for the function made its’ way into the press. It was revealed that Gaile’s name on the list was listed as Gaile Lai. This led people to mistakenly think that Gaile was married. In the end, Gaile personally confirmed that her real surname was Lai.
Gaile expressed her love for that brand so she took time off to attend the function. Are you returning to work after marriage? Gaile said: “It doesn’t count. I was on vacation before and I have two more weeks before going back to school. So I have time to attend functions. (“What does Leon think about the marriage rumours?”) Don’t know. (“Have you thought about marriage during this time?” I won’t get married just because of the rumours.)” Gaile was born in the US and revealed her birth name is Gai Lai. Gaile have used her real name at the modelling agency. She didn’t change her surname to use her husband’s family name because she was married. Would you consider Gai Lai Lai after you get married to Leon? Gaile said: “Don ‘t know. Didn’t think about it. (“Would you combine the maiden and husband’s family name together?”) Doesn’t matter. Haven’t thought about it.” The reporter then asked if anyone referred to her as Mrs. Lai? Gaile jokingly said that only the press have referred to her as Mrs. Lai. Even if someone calls her by that title, she may not answer. She said: “I am still very young!”
When Gaile was being interviewed, there was a Caucasian man who was fooling around and took pictures with her. He also accidentally bumped into her arm but Gaile expressed that she didn’t mind. She didn’t feel that it was malicious.

Gaile Lai lingerie photos exposed on Facebook Monday January 26, 2009 Hong Kong Yahoo News
[img]http://i39.tinypic.com/157g7cy.jpg/img]
Sexy bedroom photos of Hong Kong top model Gaile Lai, girlfriend of Heavenly King Leon Lai, are currently spreading on the Internet. The source of these photos was pointed to the Facebook account of female photographer Eydie Tai. Lai is known to be bold in taking provocative photos which had been published on tabloids.
Tai, who shot Sammi Cheng's album cover photos, uploaded photos she had taken of 40 top models which include Lai, Balia Chan and Lisa S, onto her personal Facebook account and set the privacy level of photo album to "Everyone", whereby anyone with or without a Facebook account can view the photos.
Judging from the background of the series of 43 photos, it is believed that they were shot at the models' private apartments.
In the photos, Lai was seen in alluring poses, sitting and lying on her bed filled with plush toys, dressed in sexy lingerie; another photo featured her biting her lips provocatively, in a tank top, seeming without her bra on, sitting on a flush toilet.
According to reports, Lai was stunned and helpless when she learnt that her photos had been spread via her photographer's Facebook account. Apparently, the photos were uploaded without permission.
According to reliable source, Tai has excellent socializing skills and knows many top models and celebrities. In addition, she is one of the very few female photographers in showbiz; many female stars have thus more comfortable working with her.

Leon Lai and Gaile Lok secretly married a year and a half ago Saturday August 29, 2009 Hong Kong Source: Oriental Daily Translated by: aZnangel & boo @ http://asianuniverse.net/forums/
March of last year, Oriental Daily discovered that Leon Lai and Gaile Lok officially registered for marriage in Maldives. At the time the couple denied to such thing, but paper cannot cover fire (secrets cannot be covered), yesterday it was finally exposed that they were married on March 9th of last year in Las Vegas, United States. This proves that the exclusive was accurate. As for Andy Lau who had always been denying that he's marriage and Miriam Yeung was discovered to have secretly gotten married in Las Vegas, but the three of them kept their mouths shut yesterday.
As the saying goes: "paper cannot cover fire", the truth will eventually be exposed! Last year in March, Oriental Daily exclusively reported that Leon Lai and Gaile have already gotten married, but at the time they did not have enough evidence to prove it accurate. It was also revealed that Leon and Gaile were to hold their million dollar wedding in Maldives. Leon's father responded to the rumor and could not help but to express his sweet smile. Just based on these findings, the couple denied to such thing, while Gaile was in Taiwan for public events, she expressed: "I am not married." This year Leon held a concert and had weddings as the theme, he continued to insist his previous respond: "No, No, No."
Although Leon refused to reveal if he's married Gaile, but yesterday Reporters in the United States found something surprising at the Clark County, Nevada website. It stated that the couple arrived in Las Vegas on March 7, 2008 and registered for marriage on March 9th under the English names LEON, LAI MING and LAI GIA, proving the news discovered by Oriental Daily true. It is understood that she is a Sino-Vietnamese half-cast, that was born in Macau and, at one point, she revealed that her chinese surname was Lai, but as for why Gaile's surname was originally Lai Oriental Daily re-investigated records to find out. They found that during a period of time last year, Leon was doing public promotions for a movie, it is clear that they were in love and rushed to get married.
Early yesterday morning reporters were waiting outside the front door of Leon and Gaile's detached house in Sheung Shui, but unfortunately the involved people did not emerge. Calls to Leon's mobile phone were diverted to voice mail and, due to his inbox quickly becoming full, we were unable to leave a message. At about 6pm in the afternoon, we suddenly saw Leon driving his babysitter back home but not long after Leon drove back out with an empty car. However, he said to the reporters waiting outside, "She won't come out, you can all finish work now."
Associated artists sworn to secrecy As we know Leon, yesterday, left very early to go filming, yet he did not let the disclosure of his marriage affect his mood, which shows just how professional he is. While the East Asian entertainment industry were responding to Andy Lau and Miriam Yeung's respective marriages, Leon decided to expose his own. He points out that apart from Andy and Miriam, there is another married artist that has yet to be made public. He also said that the reporters may as well investigate it, which totally made it obvious that he was referring to himself and Gaile.
Yesterday reporters contacted Ms.Sam, a spokesperson of Leon's record company, however, she did not reply. It seems that even associated artists Janice Wei and Charles Ying have received an "order" - that is to keep it on the down low. As for the modelling company Gaile is with, they said that, "Today we have not seen any related reports, really? We're not sure. (Not letting other models getting married?) Of course not, however, we have not heard her talk about it before. Getting married is a joyous matter, we're sure that she would say.

Famous model Gaile Lok and Leon Lai were rumored numerous times to have gotten married secretly, but the stars in the rumor have always denied. But, the couple were caught by the Media last week that they already did get married last year March 9th in Las Vegas in the United States. Leon although did admit indirectly, but yesterday his other half personally admitted that she is "Mrs. Lai". But, Gaile was unwilling to respond to the other secret marriages that emerged, her reaction was the same as her husband Leon, looks like Mrs. Lai is pretty obedient!
Yesterday Gaile Lok was at the Haagen-Dazs ice cream shop for an event. When asked about her marriage, Gaile expressed that usually she's quite nervous about it, first she made a confession: "Sorry! I was also surprised, I felt the same way as you all, I haven't gotten a full understanding of the marriage myself. People can ask me, but I won't have a response. If I don't want to response, I will raise my hand and signal my answer. " As to all the new titles "Mrs. Lai", "Ah So", Gaile could not help but reveal a smile, she said: "You all treat me as 'Mrs. Lai', I am already very happy. You can just call me Gaile, but this is my first time being called as 'Ah So'!"
Chemistry with Husband, both refuses to answer
Reporters later asked a chain of questions including how the proposal was like, was it a surprise marriage, what are the couple's plans after marriage, how does it feel to be a wife, will they have a baby, why don't they have wedding rings and how did they hide that they were married? Gaile refused to respond to all the questions asked, she explained: "Leon and I hope to have some privacy, please respect us! I am a married person, questions about what will happen in the future or if we'll hold a wedding banquet, I cannot answer that right now. Even so, I may not talk about it!"
Asked about being a wife, is the responsibilities larger? Gaile said: "I never thought about that, next time I'll answer you!" Will her work and jobs be affected after marriage? "This question should not be asked to me, please ask my company!" Gaile strongly stressed that exposing her marriage or not is not important, they will handle it naturally. She said helplessly: "Originally privacy is secret, but now everyone knows, this is different from me announcing it on my own, might as well admit to it!" Praised for finding her happiness, Gaile simply said: "Thank you everyone for your concern. I already solved my marriage case. People who know Leon and I understand that I don't usually talk about my private life, I originally want to keep it secret, Thank you!" Her Cantonese has never been that great, to avoid saying the wrong things, when she accepted the phone interview from the Media, she spoke in English and spent approximately 20 minutes to talk about her marriage. She turned away from all the questions and have not responded to any.
Gaile Lok reveals why she doesn't wear her wedding ring
Hong Kong model Gaile Lok-and wife of Heavenly King Leon Lai-recently attended at the Gioiello Italiano Jewelry Fair held two nights ago as a jewelry model. She donned a million dollars worth of accessories and openly shared her love for both inexpensive and luxurious accessories.
"I will buy whatever is fashionable in the ongoing trends. [Leon] seldom [buys me any], I prefer to buy things myself though I will also occasionally shop for him too. I am not very sure how many [jewelry] we have at home. The most will be earrings because I don't normally wear rings. I will forget where I've placed it each time I remove the ring for work!"
When reporters probed Gaile on her wedding ring, the model candidly replied, "That is why I don't wear it! Whenever I have time to go out and shop, I will wear it - only when I'm not working. That is why you can't see it."
The beaming model refused to divulge the details of her wedding bling as she was afraid that it might be used as a topic of contention for the media. Gaile laughed as she spoke about a surprise she received from Leon, "He bought a bottle of perfume on the plane's duty free shop. The air stewardess told him to buy it, and he really bought it!"
