Their relationship first became public at the 2004 Athens Olympics, where they were seen walking and holding each other’s hands affectionately at the closing ceremony. They have been courting for almost eight years now and it’s high time that they get married. A low-key wedding ceremony was held on Monday in the five-star Shangri-La Hotel in Shanghai, YAO MING’S hometome.
