Meet the New Kids of Hong Kong’s A‑List
On Feb. 18, the power couple Grace Chan & Kevin Cheng popped the newest name and face onto the internet. Grace’s Instagram page shared a photo of baby R and the caption read:
“Welcome to the world, baby Rafael!”
They thanked the staff at Hong Kong Adventist Hospital, Stubbs Road for making the birth feel less like a battle and more like a breeze. The picture shows a darling little furball in a dad’s arms, with a framed photo of the happy couple in the background.
Grace added, “Mommy’s good and baby R is a sweet little nudge. Dad’s got us covered – what more could we ask for?”
Kevin echoed the sentiment on the same feed, joking:
“Every parent says their baby is the best… I finally get why!”
Little Rafael’s arrival is a sweet celebration of love that goes beyond romance – it’s the pure, unconditional parental love that our hearts crave during a season that’s already been chock‑full of romance.
First‑Time Fathers and Their Mini‑Miracles
Backing up the baby craze, David Tao (the Taiwanese singer) and Kevin Cheng (now a first‑time dad) both welcomed boys in the last two days of February.
David Tao just turned 49 and posted a heartfelt tribute on Instagram. He showcased his son, playfully nicknamed “Bonbon,” cuddled against his chest. The caption, written in Mandarin, challenged his own feelings on how a birth might feel – “Is it like buying that first car? Moving into a new home? Falling in love for the first time?” He admitted it felt richer and more complicated than any of those milestones, yet felt it was “God’s plan.” He also showered gratitude upon his wife, Penny Chiang, for the sacrifice she endured and noted she now sleeps well.
Fans speculated the baby, at roughly 3 kg, is in the pink of health.
Why the Media Conversation is Straight‑Forward
After a cesarean section at the Adventist Hospital, Grace uploaded a black‑and‑white video to commemorate the experience. Her caption was a bit of a reality check: “There are no rainbows and butterflies, but that’s the beauty of it.” She thanked everyone who supported and loved her.
Grace and Kevin wed in August 2018 – and their pregnancy announcement on November panned over as if a secret outburst had been shattered. The timing of the birth was quietly announced in front of some TVB colleagues and close friends who were ready to cheer.
