Motherhood will not slow down Aimee Chan’s (陳茵媺) career ambitions. Giving birth to her son, Aiden Joshua, in December, Aimee stated that her career goals have not changed; she is focused on improving her acting skills and reaching for Best Actress in television or film. “An artist needs to have a target. The further the target is, the better the results will be. My passion [for acting] has not lessened,” Aimee said. Although she got married and became a mother last year, Aimee does not believe that her personal changes will impact her acting. She will put the same level of enthusiasm into each and every role. Aimee hopes to try different roles, including portraying an antagonist. Learning To Take Care of Aiden Since Aimee is a first-time mother, she found that taking care of a baby is very difficult. She is learning to understand Aiden more each day, trying to decipher what his various cries mean. “A baby is a person, a form of life. He has his own personality, feelings, thoughts and capabilities. To grow to understand this person, what he likes and doesn’t like, it’s necessary to interact with him and have confidence in him and myself.” Aimee praised him for being a fast learner. He is a very active baby, and constantly moves his mouth and eyes when she talks to him. Husband, Moses Chan (陳豪), has been very helpful in caring for Aiden and in making decisions together to lessen the load on her shoulders. Aimee said, “It’s necessary to have unity in a family, for the parents to have the same stance. So far, so good!” Since baby Aiden is only one month old, it is too early to think about his education. While many parents are fretting about getting their child into preschool in Hong Kong’s competitive environment, Aimee’s first priority is to ensure Aiden develops and grows healthily. Creds: Oncc
