Lin Chiling, 47, Announces Birth Of 1st Child

Guess she won't have to answer those "When are you having a baby?" questions during Chinese New Year anymore.

Lin Chiling, 47, Announces Birth Of 1st Child

Now isn’t this a surprise?

Today (Jan 31), Lin Chiling, 47, took to her socials to announce a piece of very good news — she’s now a mother.

Yes, somehow, the model-actress managed to keep news of her pregnancy a complete secret.

Chiling tied the knot with her Japanese popstar husband, EXILE’s Akira, 40, in 2019. And the couple live in Japan now, which probably makes it easier for her to hide from the all-seeing Taiwanese paparazzi.

She also cut back considerably on her showbiz activities in the past year, perhaps to focus on her pregnancy.
