Hong Kong - After months of playing coy and giving the press the runaround, Chinese pop diva Faye Wong and heartthrob Nicholas Tse have come out in the open about their relationship, asinEonline reported.

The couple was seen holding hands in public for the first time on Sunday and they made no attempts to dodge the usual paparazzi tailing them. Wong and Tse attended a party held in a pub at Causeway Bay to celebrate actor Tony Leung's recent Best Actor win at Cannes Film Festival. At around 2am, the lovebirds were seen leaving the pub holding hands and smiling at the reporters. Wong held Tse's hand tightly and led him to their car.

As expected, the Hong Kong tabloids had a field day yesterday. Their romance was reported to have started in January and became tabloid speculations in March when Wong and Tse were seen kissing and drinking from the same mug at a pub. Since then, their relationship has been the talk of the Hong Kong press as Wong is a 31 year-old divorced mother while Tse is only 19.
