Major Chinese dailies reported that Cantopop star Aaron Kwok proposed to his Chinese model girlfriend Lynn Xiong during a holiday in Maldives.

The couple was there to celebrate the heavenly king's 47th birthday, which fell on Oct 26.

Kwok and Lynn spent eight days at the Banyan Tree Madivaru Resort which costs at least RM6,000 a night.

The reports said the couple of six years spent most of their time at the villa.

Lynn's friend said the 32-year-old model was shocked but so touched by the surprise proposal.
