Who is Denice Lam, the controversial Miss Hong Kong 2022? The model and beauty pageant queen is the daughter of 90s TVB star Wilson Lam – but her sex life revelations refuse to die
- Lam radiates glamour in her Instagram posts, fashion shoots and ViuTV screen appearances – and was determined to take home the crown the final year she could join Miss Hong Kong
- When she told a talk show that she prefers men who have ‘more stamina and can last longer’ with ‘more moves’ that leave her feeling dizzy, the internet exploded
With her stunning good looks, the charming Denice Lam, 27, radiates glamour in her Instagram posts. So perhaps it wasn’t surprising that she won the Miss Hong Kong 2022 title at the beauty pageant this year.
Coming from a showbiz background, Lam seemed determined to win the crown, as this was the final year that she could participate because of her age.
So just who is Denice Lam, how did she reconnect with her TVB star dad, and what was that furore over her love life all about?
She was the oldest Miss Hong Kong contestant and seventh mixed winner
Lam turned 27 at the time of the competition, making her the oldest contestant at the pageant. She went head-on with dozens of younger models and came out on top as Miss Hong Kong 2022, according to an Asian entertainment channel.
Aside from being the oldest in the group, Lam is also the seventh mixed contestant in history to win the Miss Hong Kong title. Her mother is said to have both Chinese and English heritage.
She has a famous dad who was a TVB star
Although being crowned Miss Hong Kong 2022 has boosted her fame, the Asian model seemed destined for the spotlight – after all, her father, former TVB A-lister Wilson Lam, 61, was among the best known actors during his heyday in the 1980s and 1990s. According to The Star, he was called “one of Hong Kong’s most handsome men” by the media. He retired from acting in 1996 to focus on his business.
But Wilson wasn’t consistently present in his daughter’s life when she was young. He and his wife then got divorced when Denice was just a baby, and she and her mum left to live in the UK, as per 8days.
For 15 years, Denice grew up without much of a connection to her father. It wasn’t until around 10 years ago that they met up once again. As per the article, Wilson was able to reunite with his daughter with some help from his relatives. After rekindling their parent-child relationship, the duo are said to meet up as often as they can, and maintain a close bond despite working far from each other.
