The Miss Hongkong pageant is one of the most talked-about competitions in the region, no thanks to the crazy amount of media attention that’s showered, or should we say shoved on the delegates and the eventual winner.
The spotlight for whomever is crowned Miss Hongkong never goes away either. And when she goes on to get married and start a family, her husband (if he isn’t famous already) and kids also become public figures.
A Hongkong news outlet recently compiled photos of some Miss Hongkong winners from the past 30 years to prove that beauty queens go on to have cute kids.
Winnie, who turned 50 last year, has a 15-year-old daughter Hannah and a 14-year-old son Jonah with her businessman husband Simon Wong.
Due to mismanagement of their sprawling business empire, the couple were besieged with financial and legal trouble some years back— she reportedly had to mortgage her Miss Hongkong crown — but have since bounced back.

Can you move someone else’s car if it’s blocking the road? 🚗💪 A viral video from Malaysia recently showed a group of men taking matters into their own hands after a badly parked car appeared to prevent a bus from passing. Their solution? Physically lifting the car and shifting it closer to the kerb. 😭 It might have cleared the road, but what if the same thing happened in Singapore? If someone parks illegally or leaves their vehicle obstructing traffic, does that give members of the public the right to move it themselves? Not quite. Even if a vehicle appears to be illegally parked, that doesn’t automatically mean you should start pushing, lifting or arranging your own tow. If you damage someone else’s vehicle in the process, you could potentially find yourself responsible for the damage. And no, the absence of a yellow line doesn’t necessarily mean someone can park however they like — a vehicle can still cause an obstruction or undue inconvenience to other road users. So what should you do instead? For illegally parked vehicles and parking-related obstructions on public roads in Singapore, the safer option is to report the vehicle to LTA through the appropriate enforcement channels or the OneService app, rather than going full Hulk and moving it yourself. 💪🚗 Here’s what you need to know about illegal parking, cars blocking traffic and whether you can move someone else’s vehicle in Singapore — because sometimes it’s better to leave the deadlifts for the gym. 😭 #8dayssg #8dayssgtrending #SGTikTok #SingaporeCars #RoadSafety
