Remember Chingmy Yau, a leading Hong Kong actress in the 1980s and 1990s who was known for her sexy image? She starred in many movies, from Stephen Chow comedies like Royal Tramp (1992) to sexy thrillers like Naked Killer (1992).

Yau, now 51, bowed out of the entertainment scene after marrying fashion mogul Sham Kar Wai and the couple went on to have three daughters.
