I’ve been gay since I was 12, says Jackie Chan’s daughter

HONG Kong superstar Jackie Chan’s estranged daughter Etta Ng said she first realised she liked girls when she was in primary school, China Press reported.

“Other girls would discuss which boys they liked, but it was different with me as I was attracted to girls,” she told Apple Daily in an interview.

She said she realised her sexual orientation when she was 12.

Ng also said she was planning to adopt a child with her Canadian wife Andi Autumn, whom she wed last month.

“There are many children in this world who do not have a family and they yearn for love,” she added.

The 22-year-old woman, who packed a hot pot set from a stall in Clementi, Singapore, on Dec 7, was shocked to find a piece of glass after spitting out the hard object.

She quickly went for an X-ray, laryngoscopy and CT scan, which showed no foreign object in her throat and abdomen. But her throat became inflamed five days later.

The woman then confronted the hot pot stall over the incident. The stall manager found another glass shard inside a box of beef tripe.

The staff discarded the box and agreed to compensate the victim.
