American singer-actor Jaycee Chan, the son of Hong Kong superstar Jackie Chan, has largely kept a low profile since his 2014 drug scandal.

He rarely appears in public and has reportedly starred in just three films since then – Monk Comes Down The Mountain (2015), Railroad Tigers (2016) and Good Night Beijing (2021).

Recently, Jaycee Chan gained media attention after making a rare public appearance at Korean-American model Irene Kim’s wedding in South Korea.

The 42-year-old appeared to be in good spirits as he warmly congratulated the newly married couple and posed for photos with guests.

The celebration was said to be a lavish affair, with numerous high-profile socialites from Hong Kong and Taiwan in attendance.

According to China Press, Chan is purportedly living in Taipei City now and often hangs out with friends at nightclubs.

For the record, Chan was jailed for six months in China in 2014 after police found over 100g of marijuana at his home. He also tested positive for the drug.

The scandal derailed his career, with major brands cutting ties with him.

Back in 2011, Jackie publicly shared his plans to donate half his fortune to charity upon his death, adding that his son would “just be wasting my money.”

Following the latter’s release from prison, both father and son reunited for the first time in Taiwan and have since reconciled.

Chan is the only son of Jackie and his wife, former actress Joan Lin.

Jackie has another 25-year-old daughter Etta Ng Chok Lam from an extramarital affair with former beauty queen Elaine Ng.
