HONG KONG superstar Andy Lau is planning to move out from the house he now shares with his parents, reported Sin Chew Daily.

It added that Lau bought a RM46mil new bungalow near his current residence at Kadoorie Hill in Kowloon to have more privacy with his Malaysian wife Carol Chu with whom he is planning to start a family.

The main reason for moving, it said, was to protect themselves from the paparazzi.

It is learnt that Lau's new house is a two-storey bungalow with high concrete fencing, unlike his current residence where he has to share a carpark with other residents.

The daily said the new bungalow had caught Lau's attention as it was just a street away from his current place and would allow him to take care of his parents and visit them regularly.
