When an actor reaches a certain level of fame, their whole life becomes a movie – with fans as fascinated with their off-screen antics as their next screen role. And when two celebrities hook up, the effect is simply multiplied.

So as the leading superstars of Asia’s film industry, these celebrity power couples are as well loved for their great performances as their on- and off-screen chemistry. We’re always excited to see these celebrities together, whether it’s at an event, commercial campaign or in a film.

After staying together for many years, not only are these couples some of the happiest in the entertainment industry, they’re also known for being the region’s highest-paid actors with multimillion dollar fortunes and lavish lifestyles.

Veteran actors Tony Leung, 59, and Carina Lau, 56, are one of the most talked-about couples in Hong Kong thanks to their successful careers and long-lasting relationship – of 33 years. After dating for 19 years, they got married in 2008 and are still seemingly just as happy together.

According to Today, Leung admitted in an interview that his wife was his “remedy” and he appreciates their “comfortable” relationship. In a separate interview, Lau revealed that their relationship “isn’t one where we’re in the best state of love. But I can say that we’re both in the best condition, and we’ve also found a way to communicate with each other after being together for so long. We have a comfortable relationship and it works for us.”

Not only are Leung and Lau the biggest stars in Hong Kong’s showbiz scene, they are also savvy business investors, growing their purse year by year. Lau is the owner of her own fashion brand Anirac and some restaurants and bars in Hong Kong, Beijing and Shanghai. Her fortune is estimated at US$61 million. Meanwhile, her husband, recently star of Marvel’s Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, also earns millions from property investment, alongside his acting and singing pay, which allowed him to build up a net worth of US$20 million, per Celebrity Net Worth.

The pair reportedly live in a luxurious US$13 million house and enjoy a high-class lifestyle of travelling by private jet or yacht, collecting antiques, sailing and surfing.
