TW-actress Chen Qiao En Ties the Knot with Non-celeb Husband Alan in Lovely Wedding in Langkawi, Malaysia

I would say it’s been a great year for TW-actress Chen Qiao En (Joe Chen) as she successfully transitioned to the elder stateswoman role of evil stepmom in hit C-drama The Double and also got married. She’s 45 years old so playing the mom/aunt role isn’t a stretch it’s just that most of us remember her as the fresh ingenue from twenty years ago hustling to make ends meet before meeting her frog who is really a prince. Most of her same gen TW-actresses all got married one after another in the last ten years so she is one of the last remaining still single until now, as she tied the knot with her non-celeb husband Alan who comes from a wealthy Malaysian family and the two met on a Chinese dating program and turned reel into real. They’ve been dating for a few years now so it’s not a fly by relationship and seems really low key and lovely from what they’ve shared. At the wedding were some of her girl group Seven Flowers mates as her bridesmaids and also her drama costars Ming Dao and Joe Cheng as groomsmen.

  1. Congratulations! Wishing them happiness. Cool to see a dating show relationship actually work out.

    I know she is 45 but she looks like she is in her 30s. She looked too young in The Double for her role especially opposite WJY who is in her 30s and looked too mature to be playing an 18 year old.

      Trust yu Zheng in making making actresses stretch our imaginations. Michele Chen as the iconic ethereal beauty and Wu Jin Yan as 14 or 18 year old girl.

    • I thought it made sense that Chen Qiao-en looked young since men like to get younger women for second wives and the actress who played her daughter is a younger actress who is 18 years younger than her in real life.

    • Yes, her acting was really good. I thought she looked familiar and I was so surprised when I saw the name as I was used to her youth Taiwanese dramas from back in the day.

  3. I love her in Fated to Love You (still the best and most creative version among all) and the Double. She is a great actress.

    Congrats and long life together!

  4. I loved so much Fated to Love you! (it’s nice to see the banner on this website) I never like the Korean version, the TW actors were too good (even they were a little bit too many fillers at the end…)

  5. Congrats to her! How I loved her and Joe cheng together for such a long time. lol. Everyone looks amazing and yes I agree with the comments her Fated to Love you was amazingly addictive.

  6. Awwwww, I’m thrilled for her and her husband could have been a celeb. He’s so good looking! Also love that Ming Dao and her are still so close. They were my fav Taiwanese couple in my teenage years and I’ve seen all their dramas together (even that crap historical one). Congrats to the newly weds!

  7. So happy to see her happy and the wedding pictures look beautiful. I love how she stayed friends with that early generation of idol taiwanese actors. It didn’t feel like a stretch that she played a mom character, but it was definitely jarring to see her play a bad guy since I’m so used to seeing her as the sweet, relatable gal. And she played the evil stepmom wonderfully!

  8. Congrats, she reminds me of the old good days when i used to watch Tw dramas , Fated to love you was one of my fave . Happy to see that Joe Cheng and Ming Dao were at the wedding . Barbie Hsu, Rainie Yang, Ariel Lin, … really good memories .

  9. She looks really happy and Im also happy to see one of my first actresses getting married :’) The 2 photos with veil looks especially beautiful to me.
