On 10th November, our nation’s pride and international shuttler Dato’ Lee Chong Wei will finally tie the knot with his off-and-on girlfriend of 11 years, Wong Mew Choo. Wong Mew Choo was also a former national badminton player – Malaysia’s top woman singles shuttler, to be precise.
No prizes for guessing why she retired!
The duo met during training and has tried to keep their relationship/love life as private as possible for more than a decade. As a matter of fact, according to our Dato’:
I’ve known Mew Choo since my junior days and we’ve been in and out of relationship for the last 11 years. Of course, there have been misunderstandings but she has always stood by me. She knew me and liked me even when I was a nobody … and she has not changed. She has waited for me for a long time and I decided that it was time to marry her. She is one patient woman and I like that quality in her.

It was also said that the couple spent three whole hours in a pre-wedding photo shoot at the iconic Sepang Gold Coast Palm Tree Resort – the very same place where the private beach wedding is going to be held.
