Chan Lai-lai’s IVF pregnancy caught citywide attention, sparking hopes for older women wanting to have babies while raising health concerns
A 58-year-old Hong Kong woman whose pregnancy at an advanced age earlier caught citywide attention has safely given birth to a girl, her family announced on social media over the weekend.
Chan Lai-lai, the wife of local actor Brian Wong Chak-fung, delivered her second child on August 22 after conceiving through in vitro fertilisation (IVF), a type of assisted reproduction treatment.
In a heartwarming video posted on social media on Saturday, Wong is seen cutting the umbilical cord in the delivery room, greeting his infant and introducing the new baby to his six-year-old daughter.
The comment section was flooded with congratulatory messages and appreciation for the mother.
