When mentioning his current wife - Miss Hong Kong 1984 Kao Li-hung, Sammo Hung used a humorous tone. He said that Le-hung had taken care of him for more than 30 years. When he was old and weak, the artist lived with illness, Kao Li-hung took care of his meals and sleep. The actor said: "She didn't let me eat this, she forced me to eat that. She took me to see a doctor. My wife worked so hard, she was really patient with me."

According to St Headline , Le Hong was in tears but smiled brightly, making a heart symbol in response to her husband on stage. In recent years, Sammo Hung has made fewer films, spending time recuperating due to many illnesses such as diabetes, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol. He injured his knee and often had to use a wheelchair and use a cane. Cao Le Hong closely monitored her husband's diet, forcing him to eat lightly to stay healthy.

Le Hong, 59 years old, is of Australian and Chinese descent. In 1984, the beauty won the Miss Hong Kong title and participated in several action films but did not gain much popularity. Le Hong fell in love with Sammo Hung when he already had a wife and four children. The actor divorced and married the beauty queen in 1991.

After getting married, the beauty queen gradually acted less in movies to take care of the house and help her husband with his work. According to Ifeng , Gao Lihong did not have children with Sammo Hung to avoid outsiders gossiping about her stepmother and her husband's biological children. Sammo Hung once confided that he always felt grateful because Gao Lihong took good care of her stepchildren and worked to keep the family harmonious.

According to HK01 , Sammo Hung holds an important position in the Hong Kong film industry. He did stunts at the age of 14. Since 1977, he has been starring in martial arts films, with notable works such as Beware of Thieves, The Legend of Wu Xing, Seven Little Fortunes, Ip Man 2 ... In addition to acting, Sammo Hung directs and designs action for many films.
