Why Cecilia Cheung Does Not Want To Reveal Her Baby Daddy’s Identity

It’s a sort of whodunit the Hong Kong media wishes they could solve.

The birth of Cecilia Cheung’s third son, Marcus Cheung, in November last year, has had everyone speculating for months about the identity of the baby daddy, and the suspects list includes ex-husband Nicholas Tse, actor-director Stephen Chow, a 50-year-old Chinese magnate, and a 65-year-old Singaporean F&B tycoon.

Alas, Apple Daily says Ceci has rubbished all speculation.

Just when we thought the hunt for the baby daddy had died down, an alleged copy of Marcus’ birth certificate made its rounds on the Internet, but we were led to another dead end once again. Turns out Ceci had left a blank where the father’s name was supposed to appear on the cert. Sneaky sneaky.

Soon after, another report by Apple Daily appeared on March 16, claiming that the actress refused to comment on the topic because “they had already broken up before [her] son was born”.

Prior to having Marcus (nicknamed “Little Prince”), the 39-year-old had two sons, Lucas Tse, 11 and Quintus Tse, 8, during her five-year marriage to Nicholas.

When news about the rumoured split with the baby daddy broke, Ceci took to Instagram to post this positive message: “If you focus on the beautiful and positive things in life, you’ll attract beautiful and positive things in your life. If you choose to focus on the bad things, you’ll attract more negativity in your life as well”.

Apple Daily also reported that she had posted a Chinese message of strength and independence on her account, although it doesn’t seem to be there anymore. Loosely translated, it read: “The road beneath my feet, I walk by myself; the things that happen to me, I bear responsibility. No one can be your everlasting pillar of support.”
