Christy Chung and Shawn Zhang renew vows in seaside ceremony for 10th wedding anniversary

A decade after saying "I do", Hong Kong actress Christy Chung and her Chinese actor husband Shawn Zhang have renewed their wedding vows in a romantic seaside ceremony in Shenzhen, China, to mark their wedding anniversary.

Christy, 56, shared photos from the intimate celebration on Instagram today (Nov 11), giving a glimpse into the intimate celebration attended by close friends and family.

She wrote: "These 10 years haven't always been easy. There's so much behind this little milestone — growing, learning and finding our way through the hard days together.

"Being there reminded me that what matters most isn't how a celebration looks, but how it feels."

A day earlier, Christy also took to Weibo to share the photos, including some of the couple standing in front of a flower arch, set against a beach backdrop.

She wrote in the caption: "I am so grateful for these 10 years of companionship and cherish every single day we've spent together.

"I also hope that everyone learns to love themselves well, enjoy life, feel gratitude for what they have and cherish the happiness right before their eyes."

In another video posted on Weibo on Nov 8, Christy and Shawn, 44, are seen exchanging their vows.

Christy and Shawn first met in 2015 on the Chinese reality dating show Perhaps Love, with their friendship eventually blossoming into romance, which initially drew criticism due to their 12-year age gap.

Before tying the knot with Shawn, Christy was married to businessman Glenn Ross from 1998 to 2002 and share a daughter Yasmine. Christy later tied the knot with music producer Jon Yen in 2003 and welcomed two daughters, Jaden and Cayla, before the marriage ended in 2011.
