Who Is Bling Empire: New York Star Stephen Hung First Wife?
Multiple sources have claimed that Deborah Hung-Valdez is Stephen Hung’s first wife and Sean and Ivan’s mother. But that’s not the case. His first wife/the mother of his kids is still a mystery to this date.
Infact, Stephen’s sons, Sean and Ivan were old enough to give speeches and perform dance numbers when Stephen and Deborah got married at The Ritz-Carlton, Hong Kong in 2012.
In case you missed it, Sean, Stephen’s best man that night, delivered a touching speech to honor the newlyweds, which hit an emotional high note. As for Ivan, he performed a spontaneous breakdancing number as the band played “Party Rock Anthem” by LMFAO.
Overall, their ceremony reflected the newlyweds’ feelings of “love and respect for each other in the ceremony.”
Stephen Hung And Deborah Valdez-Hung Relationship
Stephen Hung first met Deborah Valdez-Hung in Hong Kong, China, as a client, when he was attending a Versace show. Immediately falling for each other, they then went on to date for three years before tying the knot in 2012.
However, their love story isn’t that simple. Given Deborah’s 24 years younger than Stephen and Stephen’s reputation as a wealthy playboy, many were convinced that Deborah only married the millionaire for money. Many even tried to typecast her in the stereotype of foreign beauty marrying a rich man, who many did not consider conventionally handsome.
But the lovebirds didn’t care what others said. They stayed together no matter the adversity and were never shy about showering each other with love.

Also, Deborah’s modeling agency, Dreamodels, today is highly successful and has become a significant source of income for the Hungs. However, we have to agree that it was Stephen who helped Deborah turned her towards a path that was unexpected but certainly beneficial for her.
Before meeting Stephen, Deborah was working as a model while simultaneously pursuing her studies in the field of law. But today, she’s the owner of Dreamodels and is highly respected in the field of fashion. Whether it is a Versace show or that of Dior, Deborah is always guaranteed a coveted front-row spot.

It seems since the moment the lovebirds tied the knot, they have been constantly asked whether or not they would be having a child. And the frequency of the question has seemingly increased in recent times, it’s making Deborah uncomfortable.
“They don’t know what is happening with me. hey don’t know if I really want or I cannot, or Stephen cannot, or he doesn’t want. People are just annoying,” she said.
For now, their only kids are Sean and Ivan, from Stephen’s first marriage.
