Carman Lee recently shared her honest views on marriage and having children through a personal post published on May 23.
In the post, the actress revealed that her mother once worried she would feel lonely living without a husband or children. However, after watching her daughter gradually change over the years and seeing the simple happiness she now enjoys, her mother no longer questions whether she truly needs a life partner.
Carman Lee wrote, “I believe the completeness of life is never determined by a specific identity.” She continued by reflecting on her past relationships, saying she had sincerely loved others before but now understands how to love herself better. According to the actress, there is no absolute standard for happiness or a “correct” way to live.
The actress also expressed hope that she could become a positive role model for her niece. She explained that she does not expect her niece to follow the exact same path in life, but instead hopes the younger generation will remember to care for themselves while also loving others.
Carman Lee added that she has always believed the emotional bond shared between three generations of women carries a gentle yet powerful strength, one she hopes can be passed down to more young women.
She also encouraged people not to become overly concerned with society’s expectations about what a “complete” life should look like, emphasizing that true happiness is ultimately the best answer anyone can give to life.
Earlier this month, Carman Lee also attracted major attention after appearing at a public event where many fans were amazed by her youthful appearance, elegant aura, and impressive physical condition at the age of 60.
In May, the actress additionally uploaded a workout video showcasing her intense fitness routine, including reverse crunches and pull-ups. She revealed that her body fat percentage remains as low as 18% and proudly displayed her toned physique.
According to Carman Lee, her fitness journey began when she was 34 years old. She currently exercises five days a week for more than two hours per session and even brings workout equipment with her while traveling to maintain consistency.
The actress also shared details about the strict diet she has followed for nearly 20 years. Her meals reportedly follow a “3 portions vegetables, 2 portions protein, 1 portion whole grains” formula. She avoids sugar, fried foods, and carbonated drinks while maintaining regular sleeping habits.
Rather than supporting extreme dieting, Carman Lee said she believes in exercising so that she can enjoy food more freely without guilt.
Born in 1966, Carman Lee originally worked as a flight attendant before entering the entertainment industry. She officially debuted in Hong Kong showbiz in the early 1990s and appeared in multiple TVB productions.
Her career-defining role came in 1995 when she portrayed Xiaolongnü in “The Condor Heroes 95” alongside Louis Koo. Her ethereal and elegant portrayal of the iconic character became legendary among audiences, earning her the title of one of the most beautiful “Xiaolongnü” actresses ever cast.
She later starred in numerous other productions including “Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils” (1997), “Legendary Fighter: Yang’s Heroine” (2001), and “The Untamed” (2019).
Carman Lee previously experienced a nearly decade-long relationship with a wealthy businessman that ultimately did not lead to marriage. Following the breakup, she reportedly suffered severe emotional struggles and depression before slowly recovering through exercise and her work in the entertainment industry.
