When Shirley Yeung (楊思琦) was first discovered to be pregnant in 2011, it was in the wake of her high-profile breakup with actor Gregory Lee (李泳豪), and rumored romance with ex-diver Andy Ng (吳帥). This created a big controversy in the entertainment industry, which did not die down even after the baby was born, as Shirley refused to divulge the identity of the father. Shirley reflected on that period in her life and recalled how the constant media pressure, why did not die down even when she left to give birth in the United States, had a negative impact on her emotions and caused her much anxiety. She revealed, “I did break down. Thankfully, my emotions did not affect my baby’s health!” On why she made the brave and controversial decision to be a single mother, Shirley explained that as she was at a certain age and had always seen motherhood as a rite of passage, she decided to ignore how others viewed her and to embrace the gift of motherhood. “You can’t despair just because someone is saying nasty things about you. The more someone wants to drag you down, the more you have to rise above it and be brave.” Shirley added, “No one will be there for you when you’re older, apart from your children. Money can always be earned at a later stage, but I didn’t want to miss out on this beautiful gift, as I didn’t know when I would have another chance [to have children].” As for Shirley’s views on her love life, she expressed that she would let nature take its course. While Shirley remains busy with work and looking after her daughter, she still hopes to find someone she truly loves. Creds: Oncc
wow, well stick to your guns... make a decision and tell the haters to STFU. she's definitely not one of my favourite actresses but I do admire her for going through the whole ordeal herself
is the dad still a secret? at a certain point, the child has to know. she needs to see this aspect too. but its not an easy one.
She did found a man that loved her, she's the one that broke if off cause he wasn't wealthy enough for her. Still, she's doing great as a mother.
Of course she is, but karma bit her ass hard. All she got was bad rep and a baby... The kid might be a blessing if she can't find another man...
The deeper issue is that she's deciding what's good for 'herself' right now with out seeing it from her child's POV. She may have made a mistake, but so has everyone, especially in this business. This is what you call, 'baggage'. No man will get with her because of this, certainly not in HK society.
I always thought she would be the next promoted actress. Then that shit happened and haven't seen her since.
Yup, I would say it was around the time when her fame was going down a bit but she was still well liked, her image was very good and that that shit happened...she went down hard with it as well.
