Comedian Nigel Ng, widely recognized for his character “Uncle Roger,” recently celebrated his marriage to lawyer Sabrina Ahmed in Portugal this July.
In a heartfelt Facebook post, Ng shared: “On July 19th, 2025 I married my best friend @sabriiines. Thank you @voguemagazine for featuring our wedding and @niravpatelweddings for capturing it so beautifully. Link in bio for the article and full set of photos. Now someone please help my uncle find a wife.”
The wedding announcement followed their engagement, which Ng revealed last year, accompanied by photos from a shoot in Taiwan. Among the guests at the ceremony was comedian Jimmy O, who stood beside Ng as one of his groomsmen.
In an interview with Vogue, Sabrina recalled first discovering Ng while he was performing in Miami, though their paths did not cross in person until they connected through a dating app. A friend had described him simply as “a guy who jokes about rice,” yet she soon found him to be both “hilarious” and “actually very cute.”
Ng shared his own perspective, telling Vogue: “Within a few months, in March 2023, I realized already that I loved her and wanted to spend the rest of my life with her. The rest is history.”
The couple’s wedding unfolded over three days, beginning the weekend of July 17, and was a vibrant blend of Chinese, Islamic, and Indian traditions. Pre-wedding festivities included a lively joint bachelor and bachelorette gathering with karaoke, followed by a traditional sangeet to honor Sabrina’s Bengali heritage.
Saturday’s ceremonies featured both a Chinese tea ritual and a Western exchange of vows, culminating in a joyful reception. Food played a central role in the celebrations. As Sabrina explained: “Nigel’s career made it necessary to have excellent Asian food at the wedding; good food is also how he expresses love.”
Together, Nigel and Sabrina created a wedding that reflected not only their cultural roots but also their shared values of joy, humor, and togetherness. — Malay Mail
