TVB artists, Jackson Lai (黎振燁) and Ashley Chu (朱智賢), made headlines as the stars of “OnSum Cheating” Scandal 2.0 on April 27, after Apple Daily caught the two of them eating cake in a car. It’s being touted as “OnSum Cheating” Scandal 2.0 because the initial reports had reportedly said the two of them were “rocking the car”, similar to what Andy Hui and Jacqueline Wong were doing a year ago. In addition to that, Jackson Lai has been married since 2015 and Ashley Chu has been linked to fellow TVB actor, Brian Tse (謝東閔). Jackson Lai’s wife is also reportedly pregnant.
