action star and former Bond girl Michelle Yeoh is to marry Ferrari motor
racing team boss Jean Todt. [CRI] | "I proposed to
her and we are now engaged," said 58-year-old Frenchman Jean Todt.
He said that they had spent many happy days together and did not rule out the
possibility of marriage.
Michelle Yeoh is a 42-year-old actress born in Malaysia who later moved to
Hong Kong. She became famous as a spy in the 1997 James Bond movie Tomorrow
Never Dies.
Yeoh had brought Todt back home to meet her parents in Malaysia during the
Christmas season.
Todt and Yeoh met in June at a promotional event organized by Ferrari in
Shanghai, and the couple has been sighted together since then at F1 races in
France and the United Kingdom.
She was caught dating Ferrari CEO Jean Todt by German paper Bild. A German
sports channel photographed Yeoh sitting next to Todt, the CEO and also the
chief of the Ferrari racing team. He is also the boss of seven-time F1 champion
Michael Schumacher.
Yeoh said she was very happy with their relationship. Strangely, Yeoh said
she hadn’t heard anything about her engagement: "How did that come out? I didn't
know about it," she said.
Asked about a beautiful blue diamond ring that she was wearing, she said it
was not an engagement ring but just a present from Todt. She said she would
announce her marriage if there were any detailed plans.
The pair was introduced by Yeoh's former beau of four years, Hong Kong movie
producer Thomas Chung. "Michelle is a very smart woman, I wish her happiness
both in her life and career," said Chung.
