Chris Wang hints at wife’s second pregnancy

Thanks to a slip of the tongue, Chris Wang indirectly leaked news of his wife’s second pregnancy at an event on Tuesday (Feb 21) when he was quizzed about his plans to have a second child.

“If there’s news, we’ll definitely tell everyone when the time is right,” he said, after a pause.

However, the Taiwanese actor’s body language gave it away when reporters asked if he was keeping mum due to the Chinese tradition of not revealing a pregnancy within the first three months.

“Well,” he replied cautiously, “That’s… this is not (an admission).”

“I’m not going to talk about it for now today!” he quickly added, ending all discussions about his wife’s second pregnancy.

The 34-year-old loosened up when the conversation moved on to his fatherhood experience with his 2-year-old daughter “Lei Lei” (Wang Lei-zhen). The young tot has been parroting her parents’ words and even picked up a swear word by accident when Chris accidentally cursed in her presence.

“We were both shocked and now we substitute swear words with ‘meow,’” he shared.

The avid trekker and backpacker shared they will be going on another family vacation in March to Nepal and Austria. When reporters asked if it’d be difficult for his pregnant wife to be on the road, he gave a nervous chuckle and replied, “No lah, we’ll talk about it again.”
