HONG KONG: Veteran Hong Kong actor Patrick Tse has revealed that his daughter-in-law, actress Cecilia Cheung, is expecting a boy.
He told reporters on Sunday that he was informed immediately after his son, actor Nicholas Tse, and Cheung found out the gender of their second child.
When asked about his thoughts on Cheung having a second male child, Tse replied that he was "not disappointed in any way" and said that it did not matter because the couple "will continue to have children".
"I have always doted on Cheung because she is a great person; she always puts her family first and is willing to sacrifice for her family," he added.
Cheung's mother-in-law, former actress Deborah Lee, also said that the gender of the baby "did not matter" and that it is more important for both mother and child to stay safe.
Lee has certainly put her money where her mouth is. She has reportedly been preparing Chinese herbal tonics that cost almost HK$10,000 (S$1,800) per dose for Cheung on a regular basis.
Patrick Tse's revelation ends speculation over the gender of Cheung's second child since the couple announced last year that they were expecting another child.
The pair have been keeping mum about the gender since the announcement and were only willing to say that they "had done an ultrasound scan but the result is unknown".
Cheung gave birth to her first child, Lucas, in 2007 and had reportedly suffered two miscarriages prior to her current pregnancy. Her second child is due in May this year.
