Nancy Wu’s Tennis Date With Her Dad Has Netizens Praising Her For Being Filial

TVB actress Nancy Wu’s Instagram feed basically shows how much of a fitness freak she is, with the 40-year-old often sharing pics of her at the gym or trying out different sports.

Earlier this week, Nancy posted snaps of herself at the tennis court with her dad, writing: “I’m so happy that I finally found a ball game that I’m interested in! Most importantly, I’m able to learn, play and exercise with my daddy [and we now have] one more thing to talk about.”

According to reports, Nancy's parents used to run a very popular seafood shop in Sai Wan. It's said that the future star grew up in the lap of luxury but a drastic decrease in customers led to the shop's closure years later.

Nancy started working when she was in Form 6, which is equivalent to year two in junior college in a Singapore context, to help with her family's finances.

In 2001, a 20-year-old Nancy won the TVB Cover Girl competition which marked her first step into showbiz.

She worked her way up from the bottom and spent a decade playing supporting roles before hitting the big time. It's said that when Nancy finally managed to saveup enough money, the first thing she did was to buy a HK$11mil (S$1.9mil) mansion for her parents so they could live comfortably in their golden years.
