Career and personal life
Chan lived and studied in Australia (Melbourne, Brisbane, and Sydney) for 10 years prior to returning to Hong Kong to embark on his acting career. On 17 November 2007, he won both the Best Actor and Most Favourite Character Awards at the TVB 40th Anniversary Award Show for his character Tong Chi On in the popular drama series Heart of Greed.
He was a judge in Miss Hong Kong 2007 and Miss Chinese International 2008.[1] Chan married fellow TVB actress Aimee Chan in Paris, France in June 2013. The couple have two sons and one daughter : Aiden Joshua Chan (born 4 December 2013), Nathan Lucas Chan (born 26 February 2015) and Camilla Chan (born 27 April 2016).
There has been a rumour has emerged that Chan is also planning to leave TVB, and has already planned to set up an agency with former TVB manager Chan Ka Lei and actress Tavia Yeung. However, when asked to address the rumours, Chan replied, "I am so sorry. I can't disclose anything for now."
Chan recently denied rumours that he will be making his departure from TVB to sign with a different management company. Chan was recently rumoured to have been approached by Louis Koo's company, One Cool Film to sign a contract with them. In addition, Stephen Shiu Jr. is also reportedly interested to get Moses to join his peers like Julian Cheung and Louis Cheung and be a part of HMV Digital China.
But when asked about it, Moses assured that he will be staying with the company for a long while. "I have already signed a new contract with TVB. Our cooperation has been great and I don't see any need for me to change my working environment," he said. Chan also stated that he has no clue whether or not the aforementioned companies have been interested in him, though added that he is honoured if they are. As for now, Chan stressed that he will just focus on filming his new drama "Assassin", which is scheduled for a 2019 release.
