TOPick Clip
"The closet at home has almost all been given to her. My Donald Duck collection has temporarily been placed at my parents' house". Kenneth Ma, who will officially be off the market this year to marry his girlfriend, Roxanne Tong, said in an interview with TOPick.
When a married couple lives together, it is inevitable to make compromises when getting along with one another. Apart from temporarily putting aside one's favourite things, Kenneth, who has an organized life, is willing to change for his other half. He said, "She has never asked me to change. In fact, as long as one loves the other enough, would subconsciously accommodate one another".
Kenneth, who likes children, hopes to have a son and a daughter, and even predicts that Roxanne will fade out of the entertainment circle to support her husband and teach their children. The responsibility of supporting the family is entrusted to him...indeed a well-known warm guy in the industry.
Kenneth Ma Frankly Says That the More He Filmed, the Fitter He Became
"The Invisibles", starring Kenneth, Joel Chan, Moon Lau, and Natalie Tong, is currently airing. Kenneth, who plays Chief Inspector of Police 'Ocean', personally performed a lot of action and gunfight scenes.
Kenneth frankly said that the more he filmed, the fitter he became. He said, "Wasn't considered fit at first, but after shooting outdoor gunfight scenes, the entire body was full of sweat as though [I] had done strenuous exercise. There was no excess fat on the body. Was really fit at that time".
Would Rather Fight, Does Not Like Intimate Scenes
Injuries are unavoidable when filming gunfight scenes. Kenneth said, "Had to snatch the criminal's gun. The gun handle hit my finger and injured it". However, he has not gotten scared of it; instead, he wants to do more action scenes. "Because the shoot comes out very cool. Guys are very simple, and actors are very easy to deceive".
As for the scene where Moon entices him in the series, Kenneth said that he did not dare to look around during filming to avoid being in a suspicious situation. He said, "Only said to Moon when watching the outcome on the playback, 'Wow. You're very incredible'".
For Kenneth, he would rather fight than film intimate scenes: "Actually, filming intimate scenes is very awkward, especially if you are not familiar with your partner. If the director thinks that you are not intimate enough, should I do more? But I'm afraid of the girl misunderstanding. The actor would find it troublesome and awkward".
He revealed that when filming "Plan 'B'" with Eliza Sam, Eliza asked to remove kiss scenes. He said, "Eliza said, 'Sorry. After marriage, my husband doesn't like it very much'. Then I said, 'It'll work out if you say so!" So we changed the kiss scenes to kissing the cheek or kissing the forehead, which also explained that relationship. Thus, you must speak up; otherwise, you won't film happily, and it'll also be awkward for me".
Will Not Force Wife to Cover Up
However, the husband-to-be Kenneth will not ban Roxanne from filming kiss scenes. He said, "Roxanne said that, after marriage, she will avoid intimate scenes, but if she encounters a good role in the future, I would be assured about letting her act. Feel that the boundaries of television are limited. (You would not be dissatisfied like Joshua?) Because he is not an actor. I'm an actor, so I would understand. If the script is good, and it is not a purely ostentatious intimate scene, I would support her to film it. Enountering a good script is not easy. There should not be too many constraints".
Similarly, Kenneth will not be burdened after marriage. He continued, "If it's embellished with some sexy scenes, it's acceptable as an actor, as it's a must to attract the attention of viewers".
Roxanne occasionally posts pretty pictures on IG. Kenneth said that he would not ask her to cover up: "The pictures that she shares are not purely ostentatious...just slightly sexy. It's fine as long as it's pretty. I am not too conservative".
Preparing a Deep 'Love Declaration'
On New Year's Day this year, Kenneth announced that he and Roxanne are officially engaged. The two's wedding date has not been set. The wedding, wedding pictures, and other matters will left to Roxanne to decide. Kenneth said, "I have no ideas at all. May have acted out too many wedding scenes, so [I] don't have a vision for it, but the girl would fantasize about her own wedding".
Kenneth laughed at himself for not having his own views; it's better to have Roxanne making the decisions. The only thing he has to do is prepare a 'love declaration'. "It is the 'homework' that she has given me. Needs me to personally prepare a speech...say some true words from the heart".
Recalling the day of the proposal, Kenneth laughingly said that there were many blunders: "I don't know how to be romantic. Thought that it was well-planned, but when it was implemented, there were so many blunders. She also thought that it was quite funny".
Kenneth Ma: My Lifestyle Is Very Simple!
He, who has a simple and unadorned lifestyle, believes that it will be the same after marriage. He said, "The husband and wife living a simple life. I have always been very simple. Just go to work, play soccer, or may go home to take care of the kids in the future...already very content like this".
However, after getting married, it is daily life, which is different from dating. Kenneth and Roxanne have been living together for a period of time. The two have also made accommodations for each other, which includes eating habits. Kenneth said, "For example, I like to drink hot soup, and meals need to be hot, but she does not like drinking hot soup. She's afraid of burning her lips. Or that she's a cheese lover, but I don't eat cheese...have to make compromises for these".
Roxanne excels in the kitchen and her social life. Kenneth highly praised his fiancée's cooking skills: "The dishes that she makes are quite delicious, including spaghetti bolognese and home-cooked fishes. She also knows how to make soup".
Becomes a Cat Fool Because of Roxanne Tong
Because Roxanne loves cats, Kenneth is raising two cats at home. He said, "I have never raised cats, but I fell in love with them as soon as I got them because they act cute toward me and make me very happy. Would follow me wherever I go. When I'm looking at a script in the study, they would accompany me by my side. Would also miss them when [I] go to work".
Used to think that cats were only haughty, but now Kenneth understands the cuteness: "Already very happy to stay at home with them when [I] have time off. A day passes just like this".
Kenneth Ma Loves Tidiness: Room Used to Be Very Tidy
The two's living habits are not completely the same. Kenneth has changed his bad habits for Roxanne. He said, "She often says that my toothbrush wears out quickly because I brush my teeth with a lot of force, so I am trying to be more gentle".
After slowly getting along, have gradually discovered conflicts in the details of their lifestyles, but Kenneth said, "As long as we find ways to resolve it and accommodate each other. It'll always be difficult to change one's personality and preferences".
Just like Kenneth loves tidiness, on the contrary, Roxanne is rather casual...cannot expect the other party to change. He said, "She never folds her clothes and leaves them to the domestic helper to help, but I grew up being used to folding my own clothes. Have to give freedom in this aspect. I would not ask, 'Why don't you fold your own clothes?'"
However, Roxanne is willing to make changes for him. Kenneth said, "I am a very organized person. In the past, everything in the bedroom had to be neatly arranged, but she is a more free-spirited person...puts things in random places. When I say it a couple more times, then she tries to be neater".
He continued, "I didn't force her, and neither did she. It's just that I remember things that she previously said, voluntarily accommodating the other party. Now that [I] think about it, think that it's quite funny. (It's an expression of love?) Perhaps. Because we love each other, would willingly take a step back and subconsciously accommodate each other".
Accommodating and being tolerant are two different things. Kenneth gave an example: "I really hate people eating in the car...worried about getting the car dirty, but Roxanne really loves eating in the car. After a long time, think that it doesn't matter. Cleaning is not a difficult thing.
Roxanne Tong Is Also a Person Who Loves Home
In addition to looking at the timing for marriage, it is also important to have a like-minded partner. Kenneth said, "She really loves staying at home and doesn't like going out. In this aspect, she is similar to me...stays at home playing with the cats and watching movies when there is time off. In addition, we both love hot pot and eating Japanese food. It's easy to find a suitable restaurant when going out".
In addition, the two have similar goals in life, both pursuing a simple life. He said, "Is there a need to be rich? We are both people who do not pursue these things...can live a simple life. In the past, there were some wealthy guys who pursued her, but she did not accept them. She does not pursue a rich lifestyle, and I am also not a rich second generation...merely a working class person".
Rushing to Have a Baby After Marriage
After being asked about the wedding date, Kenneth laughingly said that, recently, he has been asked about when he would be having a baby. He, who is turning 50 next year, frankly said that he would be working hard to have a baby and hopes to have two children. He explained, "As we gradually get older, we will depart. If it is an only child, there would be no close relatives in the world. If there are brothers and sisters as companions to discuss with, then it would not be so lonely".
Already making tentative plans for his children, Kenneth seems to be an attentive father. "Yes, but I would give them free rein and would not give my children too many restrictions". After having children in the future, Roxanne would mainly take care of their children. "She probably won't be filming series...just occasionally shooting ads. (She thinks that it's a sacrifice?) Would not. She really likes children. She said that, if she becomes a mother in the future, would also not be willing to work".
Kenneth, who is about to get married, experienced a few relationships in the past. Outsiders often describe him as having a 'bumpy love road', but Kenneth disagreed, "Every relationship has happy memories. Why does one have to remember the unhappy things?"
The reason Kenneth is called a god is due to his kind heart and open-minded personality.
