Benny Chan Becomes Proud Father of 6.6 Pound Baby Girl!

Benny Chan’s (陳浩民)wife, Lisa Chiang (蔣麗莎), gave birth to a 6.6 pound little girl yesterday. The first-time parents named their daughter, Chan Ya Ru (陳雅薷). Witnessing his wife, Lisa, giving birth, Benny’s hands shook and he could not hold back tears. Benny and Lisa chose to have their daughter on the same day as Lisa’s birthday, thus there were two queens at Benny’s house that shared the same birthday!

Baby Arrived Early

Benny met with the press at 3:20 PM to announce the safe arrival of his 6.6 pound daughter, who kicked her arms and legs continuously. The baby’s grandparents decided upon the baby’s Chinese name of Chan Ya Ru, which refers to one who is well-mannered and equipped with knowledge. Benny and Lisa will choose the baby’s English name at a later time.

Benny revealed that his daughter’s due date was originally mid-December. At Lisa’s recent doctor visit, it was discovered through ultrasound scans that the baby’s umbilical cord had wrapped around her neck. Thus, the doctor advised that it was better to have the baby earlier than at a later date.

At 1PM yesterday, Benny and Lisa checked into the hospital for the scheduled delivery of their baby. Witnessing Lisa’s bleeding when the doctor performed the Caesarean section, Benny’s hands shook upon the sight of blood! “When the C-section was conducted and at the sight and smell of blood, I was very scared! My wife remained very calm. I cried when I saw my daughter being born!”

Still Living in the Shadow of Scandal

Benny took the opportunity to clarify vicious speculations after his press conference and apology in touching Rose Chan (陳嘉桓)inappropriately. “I cried at the press conference, but I have to clarify that my legs did not get weak. Afterward, the press said I acted fake!” (Did Benny spend $1 million HKD in order to settle the issue with Rose Chan ?) “Today is a big day; let’s talk about this another time!” (What will you be giving your wife?) “I will remain by her side and think about it later!”

Asked whether the harassment scandal had affected Benny’s work, he responded, “Our family has grown now; I need to work hard. I do not feel that the incident affected my work!” Asked whether Benny had announced his daughter’s birth to his friends, he said, “I called Evergreen Mak (麥長青)and Lam Chi Chung (林子聰). After speaking with the media, I will call Joe Ma (馬德鐘)and Timmy Hung (洪天明) to share the good news.” (Are you upset at Joe Ma [for pointing out that the harassment incident originated with you?] “Why would I be upset? He is my friend!”

Prior to giving birth, Lisa wrote on her blog that Benny was more anxious than her with the baby’s impending arrival. One month after her post-partum recovery, Lisa, Benny and their family will return to mainland China to visit relatives.

Jayne: Congratulations to Benny and hope that parenthood will ground him more and make him realize that family should be cherished. One needs to be responsible and accountable for one’s behavior, as the consequences of irresponsible behavior may threaten the family unity.

  1. Oh Benny, do not do unto other people’s daughter what you do not want other people to do unto your own daughter.

    Hopefully fatherhood will teach him to stop drinking in front of pretty girls.

    1. it may change him after his daughter’s born,.. i hope so!

    2. I agree and really hope that he has learned from his experiences so that bad karma doesn’t go down to his own daughter.

      1. @ josie.

        And Rose’s mom is like 35/36. Her parents had her young.

      2. So your prediction is Benny “wanted” to play with Rose like father and daughter game?

      3. Wait, you mean her parents had her when they’re 11-12 yo. Are you kidding me? =.=

      4. @ Veejay – I know, just wanted to point our her parents’ age. I’d also like to add that because her parents had her young, her dad’s age shouldn’t be used as a scale when it comes to her ‘relationship’/encounters with older men.

  2. So benny is gonna call Joe and timmy up to celebrate? Uh oh, the wolves might be on the prowl again soon!

    1. Provided Timmy invited some really “naive” chicks over or else, these wolves could just molest the waitresses.

    2. I think Benny and Joe will be extra careful from now on after everything that has happened. Hope that they have learned from their mistakes and not do anything like that again.

  3. don’t tell me that pic of his wife in wheel chair she is on her way to give birth?. She look like someone going for party instead of giving birth. High boot some more haha…Her outfit really feel uncomfy for someone who’s pregnancy is in 3rd trimester.

  4. So basically Benny kept parading his wife around Hong Kong to make himself look better, even though his wife was a few days away from being due? okay…

    1. Totally agree with you. Baby arrives in the right moment (or not!!!!1) to help Benny to recover his reputation with the public. We are soooo cynical!!

  5. Benny’s smile and victory sign seems to mean something.. maybe it’s just me.

  6. Shoul’ve named her “Rose Chan” to always remind him of his wrongdoings and think about his daughter next times he lose turns into a beast.

    Well, the truth is that beasts will never changed. However im sure he will be much more careful from now on i.e. keep a gentleman act until a place where no pictures and vids can be taken…

    1. Im sure Joe and BC have been around “taking advantages” of those newbies/young artists for a while, its just that no one reported them so they can just escape like that. I’m also convinced that their wives knew about their “activity” and they just pretend to have their eyes closed as long as they didnt bring home girls.
      i’M SURE if “these wolves” ever “eat” again, they will probably bring or lure these “victims” to a private where there won’t be any papparazis or cctv hehe.

    2. Named the baby to Rose Chan will be a field day in Hong Kong media.

  7. The baby is so cute! It’s special that she shares the same birthday as her mommy.

    Lisa almost looks like Karena Lam in the top picture, just with a longer, pointier chin.

    1. That’s what I thought, too. She does look a bit like Karena.

  8. congrats but now Benny seems to use hiswife and baby to make himself look like a good husband and dad. It feels fake

  9. Congrat to Benny ,honestly Lisa was more pretty than Rose Chan,that no need for Benny to molest the cheap and ugly girl Rose Chan,even Charmaine Seh is million time pretty than Rose Chan.

  10. Grats! Glad the baby is healthy and mommy is doing well.

    Let’s hope Benny has learned his lesson so the daughter will always see him as a hero as she grows up!

  11. Congratulations to Benny and Lisa. Hopefully Benny changes his ways this time around.

  12. ya should name the baby Rose Chan or the full name to be Rose Chan Kah Woon

  13. did benny where the same shirt when he was on this show interviewed by Stephen Chan

  14. I like the baby’s name. I think is sound very nice in Cantonese.

    陳雅薷

    But, the name does not mean knowledgeable since they change the last character from 儒 to 薷. 儒 means Confucius scholar which denotes knowledge, but, 薷 is just a plant’s name. :p

  15. Congratulations to Lisa for giving birth safely. Glad the baby girl is ok. I’m also glad that Benny gave birth to a daughter so now he knows how it feels if his daughter gets harassed from older men. That will teach him a lesson. He’s too immature and hopefully his daughter will make him grow up. It’s so special having a kid that shares the same birthday as mommy. so special.
