It is not the first time the couple are involved in a major scandal. In October 1999 a TV actress and former Miss Asia 1990, Elaine Ng Yi-Lei revealed to the Hong Kong media that she had had an affair with Jackie Chan and was pregnant with Jackie Chan’s child. Facing the strong demands for truth from the media and his fans, before publicly admitting his affair with Elaine Ng Yi-Lei, Jackie Chan called his wife who lived in the United States with their son to tell her the truth and to beg her for forgiveness. He described that conversation with his wife to his close friends as the worst moment of his life. Surprisingly, his wife was calm and supportive. She said:

“You don’t have to tell me anything. Me and our son can handle ourselves. Don’t worry about us, we are fine, go and settle your problem, don’t say anything “

Can you imagine how much relief Jackie Chan felt and how much he appreciated his wife for forgiving him in this way? Today they are still a happy family, or trying to be one.
