Who Was Benz Hui’s Wife?

Benz Hui married Angeli Hui, also known as Yin-yi Lung, in 1992. The couple shared a strong bond for over three decades. They have a daughter named Charmaine Hui, and Benz was also a stepfather to Angeli’s son from her previous marriage.

Over the years, the couple maintained a private family life, often staying away from the media spotlight. However, they appeared together on family-oriented shows and public events, reflecting their close-knit relationship.

Benz Hui’s Daughter Charmaine Hui

Their daughter Charmaine Hui is an entrepreneur based in Singapore. She launched her first café, Café Bakeaholic, in Springside Green in December 2020. Later, she expanded with another outlet at Wheelock Place and opened Juju Café, a modern Hong Kong-style eatery, in 2022.

Benz and Angeli supported all of Charmaine’s business ventures financially and emotionally. However, in March 2024, Charmaine decided to close Juju and one Café Bakeaholic branch to focus on her marriage. Benz confirmed that she had moved to Hong Kong with her husband, Shane Sim, and planned to resume business later.

The original Café Bakeaholic outlet remains open and continues to operate successfully.
