Hong Kong actress Nancy Sit made headlines in 2018 when she revealed that she had been in a 12-year relationship with a man 17 years her junior.
According to Lianhe Zaobao, Sit, 75, once harboured doubts about their age gap, which eventually led to their breakup.
But it appears their love story isn’t over just yet, as the TVB star and her partner – only known as Andy – have rekindled their May-December romance.
In a recent interview with Hong Kong media personality Stephen Chan, Sit gave a shout-out to her lover, saying: “I hope our love will be eternal.”
She also admitted that she was hesitant to accept Andy’s affections at first, fearing his feelings might be fleeting.
“He has many options, yet he’s treated me so well all these years.
“I struggle with the age difference because I may leave this world before he does... I often think about this and even talked to my eldest daughter, who told me not to worry and just enjoy the present moment,” she said.
Despite her feelings for Andy, Sit – known for her roles in dramas such as A Kindred Spirit (1999), Return Of The Cuckoo (2000) and Virtues Of Harmony (2001) – has no plans on remarrying as she wants to avoid the troubles of going through another divorce.
The actress has two daughters and a son from her previous marriage to businessman Shek Bo Hing, which ended in divorce in 1995.
During the interview, Sit shared that her children have already accepted Andy, who joins them on family trips.
She expressed gratitude to Andy for his devotion, adding: “It’s rare to have such a sweet experience at this stage in my life.
“Whenever I face difficulties, you’re there to share the burden. Meeting you has been such a blessing. I hope we can continue to be as loving and blissful.”
