TVB actress Linda Chung has reportedly given birth to her first child in Vancouver, Canada.
The 32-year-old tied the knot with her boyfriend, chiropractor Jeremy in a small ceremony late last year, held a wedding banquet in February and announced her pregnancy
in May this year. In recent days, it has been rumoured that the actress
has long given birth, though Linda has never confirmed or denied the
news.
Yesterday, new reports stated that the actress has already
given birth at B.C Women’s Hospital & Health Centre in Vancouver,
which is a 10 minute drive away from her house. It was also reported
that Jeremy is officially on paternity leave to be with Linda. While the
gender of Linda’s baby was not specified, it was previously said that
Linda is expecting a baby girl.
When the media questioned Linda’s close friends in Hong Kong, they
all remained tight-lipped. Taiwanese actress Christine Kuo maintained
that she did not know anything, while Canadian TVB actress Eliza Sam
answered in English, “I don’t know if it is true or not ah”. Chinese
actress-host Leanne Li, who showed up at a promotional event recently,
would only say that they had talked in a group chat last week, but they
did not mention anything related to the baby.
Additionally,
Linda’s ex-boyfriend Hong Kong actor Philip Ng, whom she dated for eight
years prior to marrying Jeremy, also shared that he had no idea whether
Linda had given birth.
The 38-year-old, who appeared at a
promotional event yesterday, said, “If it’s true, then [I offer my]
heartiest congratulations to her. God bless her and her whole family.
It’s a joyous thing to have a baby in the family.”
Philip also revealed that he would wait for Linda to contact him of
her own accord after getting her rest, before asking after her.
The
actor then shared that he has always remained in contact with Linda,
and that she had texted him when he went over to Canada for filming. The
actress had asked if he was indeed in Vancouver, but their conversation
had stopped after the perfunctory greetings.
