It'd be icing on the cake if she had a daughter for a second child
Fans hoping to catch Fann Wong on local TV again, keep your fingers
crossed. Although it has been five years since her last Channel 8
series, Be Happy, the mother of one says she is open to doing local projects as long as “the script and timing are suitable.”
Zed
still comes first for now, said Fann, during an interview with the
media after her guest appearance on LOVE 97.2FM’s morning radio show
which is hosted by Chen Biyu, Dennis Chew, Marcus Chin and Mark Lee.
With
Zed (he will be turning 2 in August) as her top priority now, Fann let
in on a recent heart wrenching episode when Zed was hospitalised for
stomach flu after the family’s trip back to Christopher Lee’s hometown
in Malacca, Malaysia during Chinese New Year.
While he has
since recovered from it, he was hit by a high fever a few days ago with
his temperature spiking to 40 degrees. “I was quite worried because I
had a high fever of 40 degrees as well many years ago and it was an
agonising experience,” she said.
“We had to keep him under observation at home and it was very tiring
during that period of time. We had to check on him hourly and constantly
wipe him down. He cries when he wakes up every hour and we didn’t get
much sleep then.”
It was painful for her to see Zed suffer and
Fann admitted that even though it’s tough being a mother, there’s joy
in the suffering too. “It’s very different from the hardships I
experienced as an actress.”
The 45-year-old assured that Zed
has completely recovered and is in the pink of health again and said, “I
know why the most important thing to parents is for their child to be
healthy now.”
