Property magnate Cecil Chao Sze-tsung has offered the huge bounty to the man who can sweep his daughter of her feet - even though she is a lesbian. News of the Hong Kong-based businessman's reward comes after reports Gigi Chao, 33, married her long-term girlfriend in France.
The father is trying to dictate the sexuality of his children. The 76-year-old property and shipping tycoon is offering a £40million
‘marriage bounty’ to any man who can win the heart of his lesbian daughter – and turn her straight.
Gigi Chao (right) is believed to have married her girlfriend of seven years Sean Eav (left) in France, yet her businessman father has offered £40million to the man that can woo his daughter.
Refusing to accept the gay union, he pledged the fortune to any potential male suitor able to walk the 33-year-old University of Manchester graduate down the aisle at a traditional wedding. The famously promiscuous Hong Kong businessman dismissed ‘false reports’ of his daughter’s lesbian nuptials and insisted she was still single.
‘I don’t mind whether he is rich or poor – the important thing is that he is generous and kind hearted,’ he said of the ideal husband for his daughter.
‘Gigi is a very good woman with both talents and looks. She is devoted to her parents, is generous and does volunteer work,’ he told the South China Morning Post.
In addition to the dowry, he has also offered to start his potential son-in-law up in his own business.
He said the prize money was ‘an inducement to attract someone who has the talent, but not the capital, to start his own business’.
According to the BBC, Miss Chao said she found her father’s plan ‘entertaining’ and wouldn’t give it too much thought until an actual suitor had been found.
Miss Chao graduated from university in 1999 with a degree in architecture. She went on to work for two years with prominent British architect Sir Terry Farrell.
What do you think guys? Is he has right to interfere into his daughter's life having such a bad reputation?
