Famous actress reveals giving birth to premature baby

Kathy Yuen, the popular Hong Kong actress who married renowned dance choreographer Shing Mak in January, gave birth to a premature baby girl on June 18.  She announced it on Instagram post with a snap of the family of only the hands of the family of three on the occasion of Father’s Day.

In her post, the 33-year-old tagged her hubby Mak, 41, and wrote, “Your sweetheart from a past life unexpectedly came, taking us off guard, but she is also the finest Father’s Day present for you.”

Mak also shared the same photo on Instagram, along with the caption: “Mum and Dad will always be there for you, loving you. Thank you to my wife for providing me with a loving family. Let’s put forth some effort together.”

The baby, who is nicknamed QQ Mak, was due at the end of July. Yuen told Hong Kong newspaper Ming Pao on Tuesday (June 22) that she weighed 2.5kg and was healthy despite her early arrival.  Six months ago, the celebrity couple broke the news that they had tied the knot and were having a baby.

QQ Mak is the baby’s moniker and she was expected at the end of July but decided to come into the world a good month earlier. Her mother told the Hong Kong tabloid Ming Pao on Tuesday (June 22) that despite her early birth, she weighed 2.5kg and was healthy. 

Kathy Yuen was recently seen in the 2020 hit Television series ‘Al Cappuccino’ in which she played Yuen as So Tsz-Shan, a high school teacher.  She is in talks for new films and series but will resume work only after QQ Mak grows up and can be left in the care of others.
