Zhang Ziyi's Ex, HK Billionaire Heir Eric Fok, 43, To Marry Russian-Mongolian Actress, 29

Looks like wedding bells are finally ringing for one of Hong Kong's most eligible bachelors, billionaire heir Eric Fok, 43.

The grandson of late Hong Kong tycoon Henry Fok is set to marry Russian-Mongolian actress Narana Erdyneeva, also known as Naran, 29, on Dec 12.

After months of speculation, the couple's wedding invitation has surfaced online, revealing details of their upcoming nuptials.

According to Hong Kong media, the wedding will be held at the Grand Hyatt Hong Kong, with the invitation bearing the names of Eric's parents, Hong Kong tycoon Timothy Fok and former Miss Hong Kong Loletta Chu.

Neither Eric nor Naran has publicly confirmed the wedding.

Eric is the second of three sons born to Timothy and Loletta, and serves as vice-chairman of the Fok Ying Tung Group. The family fortune has reportedly been estimated at HK$5bil (S$830mil).

His elder brother is Hong Kong politician and businessman Kenneth Fok, 47, who married Chinese Olympic diving champion Guo Jingjing in a lavish wedding in 2012. They have three children.

Eric previously made headlines for his two-year relationship with Chinese actress Zhang Ziyi.

The pair met at a charity gala in 2004 but split in 2006, reportedly because the Fok family disapproved of Ziyi continuing her showbiz career after marriage.

As for Eric's bride-to-be, Naran started out as a model and appeared in Jay Chou's 2016 music video for 'Love Confession'.

She later shot to fame playing the seductive Su Daji in the 2023 Chinese fantasy film Creation of the Gods I: Kingdom of Storms.

According to Hong Kong media, Naran first met Eric when she was 18, after signing with a modelling agency in which he had invested.

Their relationship was initially professional, but the pair reportedly reconnected years later and romance blossomed.

The couple sparked dating rumours earlier this year after they were spotted holidaying together in Europe during Chinese New Year.

In June, reports surfaced that they were planning to wed in Hainan in November.

When Timothy was asked about the wedding rumours, he neither confirmed nor denied them, instead telling reporters to ask Eric himself.

Well, it looks like we finally have a date.
