Career
Ho was born in the United States to Hong Kong parents, but he was raised in Canada and Taiwan . He studied at Ontario College of Art and Design , and began his singing career after being offered a record deal in a karaoke bar. In 1998, he released his debut album Miss You Love in Taiwan.[ 9]
Since 2000, he shifted his career focus to acting in East Asia .
Personal life
Ho has stated that he has been in four relationships, but has only publicly acknowledged two: singer and actress Jessica Song and his current wife, Peggy. He and Song were in a relationship for nearly two years before her entrée into the entertainment industry. However, due to strong opposition from Ho’s management company and prolonged periods of separation, Song eventually initiated the breakup. Ho married Taiwanese saleswoman-turned-designer Peggy Lin in 2016. After the marriage, Lin became a model and influencer. In 2018, Lin acted in the Ho-directed TV series Age of Rebellion. [ 10] [ 11]
