In a recent interview, Hong Kong actor and singer William Chan spoke for the first time about the reason behind publicly announcing the birth of his child a revelation that surprised many fans and sparked widespread discussion.
Chan explained that the decision was made after years of deliberately keeping his relationship private. He shared:
“For many years, we chose not to speak publicly about our relationship because we wanted to protect one another. We also didn’t want our personal matters to affect each other’s careers. Although we have always lived very quietly, in such a unique industry, we did not want to hide our child. When the child grows up, I hope they will know this: their arrival was something both parents blessed and cherished. Our child has given us the courage to face the world.”
Addressing reactions that labeled his announcement as sudden, Chan clarified that nothing was unexpected for the couple.
“People may say William Chan suddenly dropped a ‘bomb.’ But this is not a bomb at all. We have been together for many years we just never responded publicly. The arrival of our child was planned. It may look unexpected from the outside, but for us, everything happened exactly as we wished and prepared for.”
On the morning of October 18, 2025, William Chan and Chinese supermodel Sui He publicly announced the birth of their son by sharing ultrasound scans, maternity photos, and snapshots with their newborn. The couple posted simultaneously with captions such as “Father, mother, and baby,” marking the first time they openly acknowledged their child.
Rumors about their relationship first surfaced in August 2021, when paparazzi spotted them going to the gym together, sharing transportation, and William reportedly staying overnight at Sui He’s residence. Although they never officially confirmed their relationship, sources suggest they had been dating since late 2019 or early 2020. During 2022, the couple reportedly maintained a long-distance relationship due to pandemic travel restrictions.
Chan’s openness has been widely interpreted as a responsible and sincere gesture. Many fans praised his maturity, noting that transparency surrounding life events especially those involving children is becoming increasingly common among Asian celebrities who wish to prioritize family over public image.
At the same time, the actor has refrained from revealing further details about his partner or private family matters. Despite the sudden publicity, Chan emphasized that the decision was deeply personal, carefully considered, and aligned with the couple’s long-term plans.
