“I've always, always dated older guys, so it never really crossed my mind that maybe a younger guy would have worked out for me,” she admitted.
Teo shared that her relationship with Wong also received a lot of support from her family and fellow Mediacorp artiste friends.
“I knew he was the one when Tay Ying, Tay Ying’s husband, Kayly, Denise (Camilia Tan), people who are very close to me kept telling me, ‘I feel like James is really so good to you. He's so right for you’,” she shared.
“Hearing these comments reaffirm my life choices, and made me really want to cherish this relationship.”
When asked whether she wants to start a family, the radio DJ said: “Yes! I want kids. I love kids. I keep telling my friends to wish me Zao Sheng Gui Zi ('may you give birth soon' in Mandarin).”
Teo told CNA Lifestyle that she hopes to have four kids. “But it probably won’t be so soon. It will probably be after the wedding,” she added. “So we'll just focus on getting our stuff done first, building our foundation and spend some more alone time before family comes into the picture.”
MAKING HER RELATIONSHIP PUBLIC

Teo however, did not post much about her and Wong’s relationship online when they were dating.
She admitted that after she made her last relationship public, it was “awkward” when listeners approached her asking about her and her former partner after they broke up.
“So I told myself the next time I get in a relationship, I will only announce when we are engaged, which is why James and I are taking this step – we both believe in only announcing it after we get engaged,” she said.
She did however have a “public relationship” moment at Hong Kong singer-songwriter GEM’s concert in March when the ‘kiss camera’ panned to her and Wong.
“That was insane,” Teo said. “I said ‘There’s 50,000 people here. There is no way the kiss cam is going to capture us’. Ten seconds later the camera was right on our faces and I was so shocked, I really could not react.”
“So GEM actually
bao toh (tattled on) us before anyone else,” she joked, saying that she instantly received many texts on her phone about her and Wong’s appearance on screen, including one from her boss.

Moving forward, she added that the pair have created a couple account on social media and will focus on making couple-centred content.
“Both of us are content creators and we find that there are a lot of things that happen in our daily lives; very interesting snippets that, if we share online, will be quite fun and interesting for everyone to follow,” she said, revealing that account is ready but has not been made public.
“We just want to have fun,” she said. “It's also a way of working together with my future husband.”
