On April 16, 2019, Hui received heavy media exposure for his physical intimacies with former HK Pageant contestant Jacqueline Wong. At the time of the incident, Hui is married to Sammi Cheng and Wong is in a steady relationship with actor Kenneth Ma. The two shared a taxi ride, where they engaged in intimate acts. The incident was recorded by the taxi's in-vehicle camera and later made public by various news outlets. The pair was believed to have left the taxi together for Wong's home. As damage control, Hui immediately made a public apology to his wife and loved ones, citing he was drunk that night but admitted his intoxication was no excuse for his behaviour
