Hong Kong actor and singer Andy Lau says he married secretly because he wanted to protect his new wife from the media while they were trying to have a baby. Read more on Andy Lau’s marriage below.

Lau wrote a brief message on his Web site on Saturday stating that he and his girlfriend were married in the United States because they want to have a child by artificial insemination, and that procedure is only allowed for married couples in Hong Kong.

“I was afraid that if I announced the marriage, she would be stalked by reporters, so I made a selfish decision. I thought if things go well, I would tell everyone when the baby is stable, but instead I made things more complicated,” he said.

Andy Lau did not reveal the identity of his wife but public marriage records from the state of Nevada show that Andy Lau married Carol Chu on June 24, 2008.

Rumors have swirled about Andy Lau and Carol Chu (a former beauty queen from Malyasia) were spotted together in Hong Kong’s international airport on Tuesday.

Lau, 47, has been in many movies that include “Infernal Affairs” and “House of Flying Daggers”, and is one of Asia’s hugest celebrities.

Congratulations to Andy Lau and Carol Chu on their marriage!
