On May 4, the actress posted a casual photo on Instagram Story from her home, where she played with her pets in the spacious garden. The property, valued at over HK$1 billion in previous years, has since increased in value and is now among Hong Kong’s top 10 most luxurious homes, according to St Headline.

Reis's father-in-law, the late Hong Kong real estate tycoon Sai Fun Hui, purchased the estate in the 1970s. Located by the mountains and sea, the property offers exceptional privacy. In 2008, Reis and Hui's son, businessman Julian Hui married there in a lavish ceremony estimated to cost around HK$100 million.

Julian, heir to a vast fortune, now oversees the family business following his father’s passing in 2018.

Reis frequently expresses her appreciation for her husband, sharing a heartfelt message last year on the mark of their anniversary: "15 years and counting... so happy we found each other. Happy Anniversary!"

She said her husband enjoys romantic gestures and often moves her with handwritten notes. They maintain a transparent relationship, sharing phone passwords and resolving conflicts within a day to avoid prolonged tensions.

Reis, 54, who gained fame as a celebrated Hong Kong actress after her pageant successes, received international acclaim for her role in Hong Kong director Wong Kar-wai’s "Fallen Angels." Although she has reduced her screen appearances since the early 2000s, she continues to remain in the public eye.

Julian, 63, hails from one of Hong Kong’s most prestigious families. His father was listed among Forbes’ top 50 wealthiest individuals in Hong Kong until his death in 2018. Julian reportedly inherited assets worth HK$40 billion from his father and currently manages their extensive business empire.

Before marrying Reis, Julian was engaged to actress Carina Lau, as reported by the South China Morning Post. He was also previously married to Pansy Ho, daughter of casino magnate Stanley Ho, from 1991 until their separation in 2000.
