When it comes to Martial arts, there is hardly anyone who can match the prowess of Jackie Chan. A global star, Chan, helped to bridge the gap between two distinct entertainment industries. Popularizing martial arts worldwide, he enjoys a global fandom. However, it’s not always his art that grabs the limelight. Sometimes his personal life finds a place in the tabloids.

Known for living a life away from the set convictions, Chan grabbed the public eye when news of his fathering a girl with former beauty queen Elaine Ng broke out. However, this time, his daughter Etta Ng is getting public attention for her explosive remarks ahead of the Lunar New Year.

Despite being born to influential and famous parents, Etta does not enjoy the best of her luxury. Thus, contrary to others who are heading home to celebrate the Lunar New Year at home, Etta, who has an estranged relationship with her parents, decided to stay back. Talking about her decision, Chan’s daughter added, “I’d rather be homeless and eat stale bread than go home and reunite with my mother.”

Jaycee was born on 3rd November 1982. While growing up, Jaycee experienced the strict demeanor of his father. Chan tried to discipline his son by being strict with him. However, with his birth, as Jackie described, he was overjoyed. In his autobiography Never Grow Up, Chan, in detail, explained the moment he realized he was now a father. 

However, his behavior towards his son soon changed because he wanted him to live out of his shadow. However, on seeing Jaden Smith and Will Smith together, he went into introspection and decided to soften up on his son. The two now share a good bond and are often seen together.
