Local actress Sisley Choi Sea-pui may not be lighting up the city's TV screens these days, but her luxurious lifestyle has caught the eye of the public, sparking whispers of a mysterious "prince charming" providing hidden support.
Once a rising star in Hong Kong's entertainment scene after winning first runner-up in Miss Hong Kong 2013, Choi has recently seen a decrease in screen time and a lack of acting roles.
The 34-year-old actress recently made a splash at a fashion event, where she appeared stylishly dressed in a black mini skirt and towering heels.
According to a report by East Week, sister publication of The Standard, Choi attended the event solely to support a friend without any compensation and declined further interviews from the press.
Rather than rushing home, Choi opted for a trip to the salon before heading to Sheung Wan for a two-hour street photoshoot with her female photographer companion and a hairstylist after the event.
Despite her reduced workload, Choi has been living her best life, sharing her move to a mansion and costly food and drink escapades on social media.
At a recent equestrian event, Choi even expressed a desire to raise a horse, embodying the lifestyle of a "wealthy socialite."
While Choi's contract with TVB remains intact, rumors suggested that the company has ceased to provide her with job opportunities and has cut her support staff.
However, sources indicate that Choi has been covering her own expenses, hiring a photographer, hairstylist, and even paying for her outfits and transportation, showcasing her financial independence amid dwindling job opportunities.
Additionally, insiders claim that a powerful individual has taken a keen interest in Choi, frequently bringing her to various social gatherings and offering financial support.
During the Lunar New Year, she was reportedly seen dining with this "prince charming," with companions recognizing their romantic relationship.
