Chinese-American actress Melissa Ng is no stranger to Hong Kong’s entertainment scene, having headlined multiple TVB dramas like Into Thin Air (2005), Love Guaranteed (2006), La Femme Desperado (2006) and more.

In 2001, she married businessman Jerry Wang in Taiwan but kept her marital status a secret until 2007, when she announced her pregnancy.

The 53-year-old retired from acting shortly after to focus on her family, with her last work being the 2008 drama The Master Of Tai Chi.

While Ng has since kept a low profile, she continues to be well-loved by the public and was even voted as one of the “Top 20 Beauties in Hong Kong Period Dramas” in 2022.

She recently delighted fans with a rare public appearance, reuniting with Hong Kong stars Carol Cheng, Jessica Hsuan, Priscilla Ku and other close friends for a birthday celebration.

Cheng later shared photos of the gathering on Instagram on Wednesday (Aug 20), captioning them: “The six beauties have reunited after a two-and-a-half year wait! You can only imagine how happy and joyful we are.”

Netizens were quick to marvel at Ng’s youthful appearance, with many remarking that she looks almost unchanged despite being away from the spotlight for nearly 20 years.

“Melissa has maintained herself well. She has barely changed,” one fan commented.

Another wrote: “Her skin looks so smooth, and her aura is incredible.”

“Is Melissa ageless? She looks stunning and in such good shape,” added a third.
