LYNN Hung delighted fans with her latest Weibo post which showed photos of the actress documentin­g her eight-month pregnancy.

The Chinese model-actress, best known for playing Cheung Wing Sing – the first wife of Wing Chun grandmaste­r Ip Man in the DonnieYen-starring Ip Man film franchise – uploaded a series of profession­ally-shot photograph­s on her Weibo with a message about her baby.

While she’s eager to embrace motherhood, the beautiful actress expressed that she felt like she would miss being pregnant.

The message begins with: “It is getting closer and closer to baby’s birth. Looking forward to it. Yet, feeling somewhat reluctant. For the past few months, every foetal movement has given me an even more intimate connection with my baby. ”

In the March 12 post, Hung, 37, also showered praises on her businessma­n husband Ken Kwok Ho Chung, younger brother of Hong Kong actress Kenix Kwok.

“My husband has been so accommodat­ing and caring to me, that I am absolutely assured our little family will definitely be blissful and happy.”

Hung (also known as Xiong Dailin) tied the knot with Kwok in 2016, after dating for two years.

Before that, her most highprofil­e relationsh­ip was with pop star Aaron Kwok. Last year, the Hong Kong Heavenly King married Chinese model-actress Moka Fang, who gave birth to their first child, a daughter named Chant.

Born in Nanjing City, China, Hung studied costume design and performing arts at Soochow University.

The statuesque beauty, who stands at 1.79m tall, made her name as a fashion model in Shanghai before relocating to Hong Kong to pursue a career in film.

Besides her role in Ip Man, Hung is also known for her comedic turns in Raymond Wong’s All’s Well Ends Well franchise (2010, 2011, 2012).

A much sought-after model and actress, Hung is also a shrewd businesswo­man who runs Devi Sport, an activewear business she started with her husband in 2015.

She was last seen acting alongside Orlando Bloom and Simon Yam in the 2017 high-octane British-Chinese heist thriller The Shanghai Job (also known as S.M.A.R.T Chase).
