A recent media interview with veteran actors Lau Dan and Helen Ma has unintentionally revealed that Lau Dan’s granddaughter Noemie, the daughter of his son Hawick Lau and Hawick’s ex-wife Yang Mi, is now studying overseas.

It all started when the veteran actor attended a public event on 7 November and was asked how Noemie felt about her father Hawick’s new relationship with model Christy Lai.

While Lau Dan was taking time to respond to the question, Helen, who was standing next to him, immediately blurted, “She’s studying in the UK, so she probably doesn’t know about these things!”

Lau Dan immediately gestured for her to stop, causing an awkward moment before he finally relented and confirmed, “She’s studying in England, but I think she knows her dad has a new girlfriend, and I believe she’s happy about it.”

“I know that’s what she thinks, so I’m happy, and that puts my mind at ease,” he added.

Although the situation was unintended, many criticised Lau Dan and said that he should not speak on behalf of his granddaughter Noemie.
