    It's like they have finally met after a very long time yearning for each other since their time in Saigon.

    I have so much respect for Simon Bowman for his professionalism towards Lea Salonga…She was barely 18 when they started in Miss Saigon together. He was 28. And she said it herself that he was just very patient and helpful with her. Many years later and that story never changed!

      Probably. She said, there’s a part in her heart that belongs to him until now.
      They look good together. Thing was, Leah was very young then, only 17.
