Singapore actor Tay Ping Hui, once dubbed Singapore’s Most Eligible Bachelor, has finally tied the knot with long-time girlfriend university lecturer Edna Lim last Friday. The actor, who turns 40 this year, revealed that he had proposed to Lim, 39, last year and planned to marry her this year.
“I got married on Friday and went through all the traditional marriage rites like fetching the bride, registering our marriage and the wedding banquet on the same day,” Tay told xinmsn.com, before adding that fetching his bride was the hardest part.
“Of course we’ll have children; in fact, I would like to have five kids…”
Tay and three of his buddies were made to do 168 push-ups within a minute, down punishing beverages such as drinks laced with chilli padi and even give out what he estimated to be a “four-figure sum” in red packets before he was allowed claim his bride. “I am not even sure exactly how much it was. All I know is I kept giving out these stacks of S$50 bills!” he said.
When asked about his future plans to have kids, the celebrity said, “Of course we’ll have children; in fact, I would like to have five kids, big enough to form a basketball team! But that can happen later; for now we prefer to enjoy each other’s company.”
