William So is a dad at 49



The arrival of Hong Kong actor-singer William So’s baby son was a star-studded affair.

On Monday (March 20), William’s wife, designer Anita Fung, was accompanied into the delivery suite by Hong Kong actor Dicky Cheung and his wife, Jess Zhang.

They were so busy, they only had time to look at the birthing video in the middle of the night, as Anita had given birth at 9pm, said Dicky during a phone interview. “William helped to cut the baby’s umbilical cord, the sight was so touching,”

Dicky added. In a statement to the press, William said: “Thank you for your concern! Yes, I’ve become a dad! Both mother and son are safe, and the baby’s so cute! As a first-time dad, I feel very very touched and happy, of course.”

He even poked fun at himself, revealing that he was quite flustered as well.

The actor-singer then asked for everyone to give him some time to “settle down,” and promised to share his joy with everyone.

News that William had become a dad was revealed when composer Mark Lui, accidentally let slip that William had already become a dad at a promotional event yesterday.

William tied the knot with Anita in 2014, after divorcing his first wife in 2003.
