Chingmy, 54, was one of the leading actresses of Hong Kong cinema in the 1980s and '90s. She is known for her roles in Category III (rated 18 and above) films, most notably 1992's Naked Killer. She retired from acting after her marriage to fashion mogul Sham Kar Wai.

In recent years, she has taken a back seat to her eldest daughter Ayla, who works as a model and recently denied rumours of a Korean showbiz debut.
Fans were also glad to get a look at some of their favourite celebrities who they have not seen in a while. Alex, 59, does not have social media while Daffy, 63, rarely posts recent photos of himself.
"Thank you for the new photo of Uncle Daffy," read a comment, while another said: "Alex is so handsome!"
