I visited prostitutes, was a total jerk: Jackie Chan

Jackie Chan is in the news for honestly writing in his memoir that he did not live a clean life in his youth as many think.
In his upcoming memoirs 'Never Grow Up', Chan has revealed that, during his days as a stuntman, he used to spend all his money on prostitutes and was never nice to any woman. He has even admitted that he was suspicious that his wife of several decades Lin Feng-Jiao was after his money and married her only because she got pregnant.
He has related an incident in which he even threw his son Jaycee Chan, then a baby, in a fight with his wife and he luckily escaped unhurt falling on a sofa.
There are also mentions of reckless drunken driving and the affair with singer Elaine Ng which resulted in a child Etta Ng who recently married her lesbian lover. Jackie said he apologized to his wife and son who forgave him.
The legend has attributed his behaviour to the fact that stuntmen know that their life could end any time and that is why they think they should live every moment as they pleased.
