Cecilia Cheung Shocks with “Pregnant Look”
Is Cecilia Cheung (張栢芝) pregnant again? Appearing bloated and packing on weight to her normally thin frame, Cecilia’s latest look is generating gossip that the 34-year-old may be expecting.
Shopping for groceries at the IFC mall’s City Super in Hong Kong, Cecilia wore a loose white dress with a long scarf draped strategically over her belly. Her backside showed a thickened waist and indicated that she has gone up at least one clothing size.
With a shopping cart loaded with bread, Cecilia carefully read the ingredients labels on the food products. When shoppers appeared to recognize Cecilia, she quickly put on her sunglasses.
After making her purchases, Cecilia walked quickly through the mall. Making several small knots on her long skirt, Cecilia was careful to avoid tripping. She carried the shopping bag close to her midsection and bent her head, trying to keep a low profile.
Obviously not wanting to be recognized, Cecilia’s behavior was very different from her usual friendliness and willingness to take photos with fans when spotted on previous shopping trips.
Since her divorce from Nicholas Tse (謝霆鋒) four years ago, Cecilia moved to Singapore and led an active dating life. In January, Cecilia was seen spending the night at film investor and Mainland millionaire 47-year-old Sun Donghai‘s (孫東海) house. The couple often eats dinner with their friends in Singapore.
Although she is already blessed with two beautiful sons, Cecilia had expressed her desire to have a daughter one day. She also wishes to get married again. In an earlier interview, she said, “I’m like a 16-year-old. I still believe in love. I’ll maintain my beauty, figure, and intelligence. I hope to get married again, and don’t mind a flash wedding!”

If it’s true, hope she has found someone who truly loves her instead of a leftover who still has feelings for an ex.
@bizzybody for better or for worse Nic stood by her during her worst ever scandal and let her craziness do the talking. How do you even know this rich man will stand by her since it is such an early stage? Whoever that can stop her immaturity and hive her a stable life is good enough. No need to say Nic is leftover since her background isn’t exactly spotless.
@funnlim Agreed. I think people need to stop pointing fingers at Nic. He stood by her during the worst period and now that they are already divorced, he is free to reconcile with his ex. There’s nothing wrong with that and it is very delusional of people to think that Nic and Cecilia must get back together again simply because they have children.
@funnlim Standing by your spouse when they are going through a tough period is hardly saint-like behaviour. It’s what every decent human being is supposed to do. Objectively speaking she did nothing wrong in the so-called ‘scandal’. Crashing your ferrari and letting someone else take the blame is what I’d call immature and not to mention illegal. But to be fair, he was young and immature back then so I’m not gonna hold that against him now.
We don’t know exactly what happened in their marriage so we can’t comment on that. However, what we do see is that Cecilia (despite struggling with her own issues) always puts her sons in her top priority and is trying her best as a mother. Meanwhile Nic Tse is sooooooo busy with his carreer that he has no time to see his sons but somehow can fly to Beijing whenever he wants to see ‘the love of his life’ like a love-sick puppy.
@peanutbutterjelly
“Objectively speaking she did nothing wrong in the so-called ‘scandal’.”
Yes she did. She was drugged out of her mind. Neither was a saint. Nor did I say she was to be blamed. I was merely pointing out he stood by her and no, no man could have stood by a wife with that sort of scandal. By that time Nic was a little bit matured, he stuck by her, she chose to face the media in a dignified way. What happened after was less than dignified for both sides.
As for Cecilia’s struggles and her devotion to her children, I won’t doubt it but I think Nic deserves a break. The children were not with him., If they were with him and she was the one now dating and getting pregnant, I am sure criticisms against her is the same as levied against Nic. They both have moved on, and he should be allowed to find new love with his old love. Hers was easier since her children were with her and the guy’s next to her. He had it more difficult with his love somewhere else and a business to take care of. I am sure he made the effort to balance that part of his life unfortunately like with Cecilia, just because he visited his old flame it gets overblown. Is he wrong to be a love sick puppy? Faye isn;’t pregnant, if reports are true, he isn’t marrying yet. If this article is true, well, Cecilia certainly moved on also, even with her first priority being her children, her career etc she still gets the time to have a relationship and soon to have a child.
If you want a man who is there all the time, he has no career. But he still needs a life. Same right Cecilia has. If Cecilia can move on to new loves so can he. Only she has the boasting right so to speak that she is a good mother because her children are with her. Custody is with her. Outcome is still the same if Nic gets custody except this time the names are different.
@funnlim “Yes she did. She was drugged out of her mind.”
I’ve only seen a few of the censored pics on articles and she seemed intoxicated. But even if it she was high in those pics still stand by my point. Photos that were never meant to be seen by the public were leaked. Objectively speaking, she did nothing wrong.
“Neither was a saint.”
I never claimed that.
“no man could have stood by a wife with that sort of scandal. By that time Nic was a little bit matured, he stuck by her”
Isn’t that statement contradicting by itself?
I just wanted to make clear that I don’t think Nic Tse deserves any praise for not leaving his wife and kid at that moment. I think that any decent human being should’ve stood by their spouse in that situation because it all boils down to was: what does he care about more, his wife or ‘face’/what other people will think?
I’m sorry but if you leave your wife that hasn’t wronged you and kid because of ‘losing face’ then you’re trash.
And lastly, I don’t think people are blaming Tse for ‘moving on’ but rather in multiple interviews he claimed he’s too busy to visit his sons regularly, what might as well be true but then it comes out that he flies to Beijing regularly to play house with his girlfriend. THAT rubs people the wrong way. It’s not that you can’t move on but as a parent you have to put your kids before you so to speak, just like what Cecilia does.
@funnlim As we are not them we don’t really know what happened in the relationship and whoever is at fault is no longer important. From the entertainment news/rumours/gossips it seems to me that Nic was Faye’s ‘leftover’ and he still carries a torch for her. It wouldn’t be easy for Cecilia to live up to Nic’s expectations hence he would not be as committed to the marriage as she is whether as a parent or spouse. These type of scenario is often played out in movies as well. My comment wasn’t to put a blame to either party.

Truthfully they both got issues. Neither one is better than the other. No saints here.
(1) Nic not just crashed his Ferrari and ran off back then, he was also cheating behind Faye’s back with Cecilia. As in, his feet was on both boats. If not for that infamous crash which exposed everything … God only knows how long the deception would have gone on for.
What can we say? Women are blind and soft-hearted, especially to a man’s charms.
= Faye took this cheater back on in 2013, 2014? (whatever happened to the once a cheater always a cheater at heart philosophy?)
= Cecilia cheated along with him back then, because she was always so besotted with Nic.
(2) Cecilia was NOT ‘cheating’ whilst in the marriage. The pictures, (not meant for public eyes or not is immaterial) = technically, this episode happened BEFORE they got married.
The ladies in the Edison scandal were all free, unattached agents. Bad judgement, stupidity and foolishness yes, but cheating on husband no.
(3) While it LOOKS way admirable Nic stood by Cecilia instead of leaving … it also made him look good. Isn’t this shrewd self-serving strategy too? Would look gossipy-bad for him as a husband to abandon a wife and kids, just because of her past. Afterall he’s not any shining good boy himself, either. Not to mention, walking out would also mean he felt some kind of blow/slight on his ego, that he wasn’t ‘big man enough’ not to mind and accept.
But he did leave, once it appeared he had stood by his wife like a supportive quality good man who is strong enough not to let anything bother him, instead of turning his back immediately like a cad.
I am sure the ever-posturing Tses do NOT stage a move without first considering long-term effect implications and impact on image. Good calculated move, for his image and reputation enhancement. Short term torture, long term benefits = he makes his exit and walks out eventually still smelling like roses, with people feeling sorry for this strong, supportive understanding and ungrudging husband. Way to go, Nic! *claps for great performance*
.
(4) As already prior mentioned, any husband that turns his back on a wife for his own face/to avoid gossip when times gets tough (despite the fact she didn’t err DURING the marriage) is so NOT worth keeping. These are the same useless unreliable types that can probably justify cheating (or walking out) if the wife has cancer, some impairment or disfigurement during marriage.
(5) Yes, both are screwed up folk, and come from equally messed family backgrounds.
BUT after the divorce, anyone with neutral unbiased eyes can see who has exerted a lot of responsibility, made time and efforts to minimize the divorce damage on the kids.
It all boils down to motivation and priorities. Anyone who has time to jet to Beijing for romantic trysts but has no free wkend at all to see kids … the priority placement and selfishness (pleasurable self-enjoyment rather than parental responsibilities and obligations) is quite obvious. Quite apparent what is near and dear to Nic’s heart.
(6) Nic’s so called career and the time he expands on it – a large part of that is also for HIS own resume, reputation, ego and pride.
Whether Nic chooses to expand into businesses, and go big or not is all well within his control. Is he throwing all of his profits and sale of businesses to his kids?
Andy Lau is a thriving businessman, but family time is family time. He still makes for quality time with his kid as a concerned (maybe overly concerned sometimes) dad. He doesn’t use it as justification that because he’s so great as the breadwinner bringing home the dough, that the wife staying at home has to 24/7 be the only person in sole charge of the home and kids.
(7) Dating while juggling the demands of young kids is not easy. That is way harder, not to mention the ‘baggage’ reputation and viability for a woman with 2 kids with potential suitors (not one-night stand flings) is challenging.
As a single unencumbered person who only has a career and businesses to bother about (all HIS own achievements by the way) – Nic is free to come and go to parties and events, without ever worrying about the logistics of the welfare/wellbring og young kids dependent on a parent.
Reading between the lines, what actually impressed me back then was Cecilia wanting to bring along her kids while working abroad. Because this totally meant the end to her free and rest time, curtailing freedom too. After work, she would have to worry about their welfare – ie Job #2 as mother begins.
It would have been much easier for her to leave them back home with nannies, throw them both out of her mind and just call home now and then. With no kids tagging along, she could have life as a single just partying, or having fun with the crew after work. Or staying out overnight by herself.
=====================================
At the end of the day I am neither fan nor supporter of either of them. But I root for the underdog, common sense prevailing when sifting through facts and justice.
Cecilia seems to be damned either way, whatever she does or decides.
Yes, I think she can be screwed up with some of her decisions/actions. But time and again I also think throughout Cecilia often thinks and acts with her heart. Impulsive people are often so and their bark is often worse than their real bite (Nic on the other hand seems the calculative opposite). Her unexplainable moves aren’t the wisest, but we can see the love and time she obviously showers on her kids as a mother.
I too enjoy a good Nic performance at the movies. But I never bought the argument back then that Nic fans used to say that he was entitled to non-stop gaming instead of parenting, just because he brought home the bread and butter. We don’t live in the 50s-70s anymore, where this type of traditional thinking prevailed; acceptable that children were to be seen and not heard, or that a wife should stick by her family even in an abusive relationship and not ever wash family linen in public.
In turn, what can we say about people like Jackie Cheung, Roger Kwok, Sunny Chan, just to name a few others? Their admirable brand of hands-on parenting and making provisions/adaptations, despite very busy careers as well (even more so for heavenly king JC who not only makes time for May Lo and daughters to the extent he used to pick them up from school, but also shows up to support friends at various events?)
A non-supportive husband and lousy dad, is just that = no need for excuses or justifications. Those few and far between high profile quality holiday time with the kids’ are great photo opportunities for Nic’s image as dad, well-staged for biased fans and to appease Cecilia.
It’s easy and glitzier to run a short-term sprint well, and impress. It’s that much harder to endure a long-term marathon, pitfalls and all.
Coming back to above pictures – whatever, her life.
Anyone can look preggers in those floaty Summer smocks, and if she is indeed preggie – she will probably love and care for Kiddo #3 with all her heart, regardless of whether she journeys alone or with a new man.
@nomad822 I heartly agree with you. If we put the whole complicated relationship of them in a timeline, it is easier to imagine.
The scandal of Ceci was leaked during her marriage but it surely happened before that. It was when Ceci is still with Edison. So she has sex with Edison wasnt something disgusting to anyone. If she did that during her marriage, it is her fault. However she didnt. She is still a devoted wife as we can see. As a result, Nic didnt have a reason to leave her. I admit that I do admire him for staying with her in her hard time and I will continue to admire his love if he can stay with her until the end as he claimed before. But overall, the romantic moments cant last long.
I dont think he is anything wrong to come back to Faye. Neverthless, it is wrong of him to prioritize love over kids. Look, Faye still has time to celebrate birthday party for her daughter with Li Ya Feng. Why Nic cant spend sometimes for his two sons? They are still his sons afterall. I find that Nic is kinda cold to his sons by that mean.
Since Ceci has to be a single mom when her ex is free to date, she has reasons to get mad at her ex. Not really love but the anger. Imagining you have to raise the kids alone without a man to lean on while that man is moved on to date his ex, you will understand the hurt of Ceci.
I think marriage has more meaning to a woman than a man. A woman will change her mind regarding family, kids and husband quite a lot. It isnt that easy to move on and give up a marriage from her side. So if Ceci can move on, It means she lost all hope on Nic.
——
Im not a fan of either or hate any of them. But Im in the side of Ceci when the romance story is involved. In my opinion, the sons are in her side because they know who care for them more.
@nomad822 Is it confirmed that Nicholas cheated behind Faye’s back when they were together? Actually, I didn’t follow the HK entertainment when Nic and Faye were a pair. Why did they break up?
From what I’ve heard a lot of ppl saying he has changed, to the better after his divorce. More matured. From interviews and his cooking show he seems to be a nice guy. How he was back then, I’ll leave it unsaid.
@nomad822 Big clap to you for putting things in clear perspective. I’m also a fan of neither but feel that for being there for her kids Cecilia has at least shown some maturity therefore I wish for her to find her own happiness.
Some people would get so worked up and take it personally if they feel we are bashing their idol and that is kinda entertaining sometimes.
In light of the fact that Cecilia recently got kicked off a large film project in which she pleaded desperately for a role, due to her unprofessional temper tantrums, I think it’s safe to say she’s not someone easy to deal with. This seems true professionally as well as personally.
Nic is not a good parent, for sure, but he was raised by incompetent parents as well. Maybe he just didn’t learn how to cope with being in a relationship. It may have been even toxic for him since we can all see how Cecilia can be sometimes. Ultimately that ended in its demise.
From my standpoint, neither are great people. But from society’s standpoint, nic got the better part of the deal and thus labelled the worser partner. I think he could shuffle more weight for the sake of his kids, but he doesn’t make the attempt. Cecilia could be more accepting & welcoming of Nic’s visits for her kids, but I don’t think she is.
It’s really hard to gauge whose better or worse. I think theyre just wrong for each other. Ceci is a loveaholic type who needs a devoted, stable & loving partner. Nic is a lone wolf who needs strong, stoic and independent type, much like himself. But I’m happy for both parties if they can find other partners who can provide them their needs. And we should be happy that they’ve moved on, not cheer & egg each faction on for ditching their ex.
@coralie Cecilia has personal issues for sure but I don’t think your assumption about is true or fair : “Cecilia could be more accepting & welcoming of Nic’s visits for her kids, but I don’t think she is.”
Nic had gone on record saying that he’s thankful that even after the divorce cecilia never said anything bad to their kids about him and always put on a good word for him towards their sons. Cecilia also vented that she thinks Nic should visit their sons more. That at least shows that whatever frustrations she has with hey ex husband, she’s willing to put that aside for the sake of their kids. And that to me shows she’s a good mother.
@peanutbutterjelly Mmm fair point. I don’t think announcing to the world that he doesn’t visit her kids enough helps the situation though, despite it being what it is.
I think Ceci is a decent mom. I never denied this. But is she a great partner? I think that it takes two to tango, and it’s rarely one person’s issue that causes a relationship’s demise. They both contributed.
@coralie I agree that it’s rarely solely one person’s fault that a relationship doesn’t work out. But I’ve also commented before that we don’t know exactly what happened in their marriage so I’m not going to assume or comment on that. I try to look at the facts that we know of and sincerely hope they both find happiness of their own without sacrificing their responsility as parents. And of course, being a parent is more than providing financial care alone, I guess I just wished Nic would realise that and replace some of his sweetheart time with playtime with the kids.
She does not look pregnant! She looks normal! That is just a bad photo!
Gees, the stress of being a woman nowadays – unable to wear a loose dress without being called pregnant or fat!
