2021 ended with several divorces like Wang Leehom’s, Barbie Hsu’s and Shila Amzah’s. But, 2022 still has couples coming together, like Jenn Chia and Jon Liddell. In fact, Taiwanese actors George Hu (胡宇威) and Annie Chen (陳庭妮) announced their engagement today (13th January)!
George and Annie broke the news over their socials with two adorable photos. Although fans were cooing over the couple pic, some sharp eyed netizens noticed an odd addition. A shiny diamond ring on her left hand signaled the duo had officially gotten engaged.
The couple also hinted at the betrothal with their captions. George captioned his with “ToGetHer” while Annie wrote, “Twogether“. If the photo wasn’t enough, Taiwanese media “ETtoday” confirmed the news with George’s agent who said, “The proposal was successful.”
George has only officially dated Emma Wu (吳映潔). However, after he met Annie while filming “Love, Now (真愛趁現在)”, they broke up. George and Annie never officially announced they were dating. In fact, the actor often referred to Annie as a “good friend”. Yet, netizens always assumed they were together based on how affectionate the two were with each other.
That affection spanned to the planning of the proposal as well. George had apparently been planning how to pop the question for a long time. The actor attempted to surprise his wife-to-be by taking her on a hiking trip. However, things didn’t go to plan.
George planned to propose to her at the top, but they took 8 hours to reach the summit. That resulted in him proposing when they came down to the parking lot. However, his legs were so weak from hiking that he knelt on the ground to propose. The agent stated the duo went alone and so, there were no recordings of the proposal.
Their wedding date has yet to be set. Apparently, the duo will be waiting to see their work schedule before planning anything. As for the gorgeous diamond ring, it was revealed to be a Cartier ring with a two carat diamond.
Well, it’s certainly a memorable engagement for the duo! Friends and fans alike have left congratulatory messages and blessings in the comments. Although there’s no wedding date announced yet, we’re sure everyone will be looking forward to them tying the knot!
