Lau caught by kiss-and-tell

Hong Kong heart-throb Andy Lau is fuming after discovering his ex-girlfriend Yu Ho-Yun is publishing a kiss-and-tell book about their former relationship.

Lau is a huge star across Asia through his hugely successful movie and music career and is set for embarrassment with the Taiwanese actress' tome, which will include 50 intimate photos of the couple and love letters penned by Lau.

Lau and Yu "fell in love at first sight" in 1983 and dated for three years. Yu, 39, is the only woman Lau has publicly admitting dating.

Hong Kong publication Apple Daily reports Yu said of the book: "It's not such a big deal. This is actually a trend in showbiz to publicly reveal relationships."

The book hits stores across China and Taiwan next year.
