Fiona Sit Sick But Refuses to Take a Break

Fiona Sit has been filming in mainland China for the last half a year. During this time, she fell sick, but did not disclose the source of her illness. She implicitly attributed it to the role she was portraying, which was a very sad character and required her to cry a lot. She was taking Chinese herbal medicine, with the help of her mother who brewed the medication. Initially, Fiona’s company asked her to take a week off to rest but she insisted on only taking three days. During this time, she rested and did necessary body check-ups. Her company said “If you were to die, how are we to repay a daughter to your family?”

Asked if her good friends, Khalil Fong and Jaycee Chan, knew of her illness, Fiona said that Khalil knew because they worked for the same company and was currently based on Hong Kong. Jaycee was working in China and did not know of her condition yet. Fiona said that she was an adult and did not need any comforting.
