Congrats, TRACY LEE! The former Ch 8 actress, who recently welcomed a new chubby addition to the family, spills on motherhood, breastfeeding, and why she has to wear wrist braces now.
It’s not an exaggeration to say that former actress Tracy Lee has had a life-changing past 10 months. Last September, the 33-year-old went from actress to wife of Ben Goi, who is the son of billionaire Sam Goi, famed for his popiah skin business Tee Yih Jia. Better known as Singapore's 'Popiah King', Sam is ranked 10th in Forbes’ Singapore’s 50 Richest, and has a net worth of US$2.1bil (S$2.86bil).
Less than two months ago, Tracy welcomed a baby boy with her 42-year-old businessman husband.
Although the new mum declines to share more details of her son, citing family concerns, she reveals that the baby was born way before the delivery date, and “isn’t a Gemini baby like me” as she had originally hoped. Tracy tells us over the phone: “His due date was supposed to be near my birthday [on June 19], and I thought it would be so cool to celebrate our birthdays together every year. But who knew, my baby was so kancheong that he came out way earlier. I’ve come to think of it as a good thing 'cos it means we can have celebrations every month!” (Laughs)
Tracy’s delivery wasn’t without a touch of drama. Her water bag broke one week before a planned maternity shoot, while she was resting at home. She was told to go to the hospital the next day. And what did she do with that one spare day she had?
“I called my friends in JB to tell them that I had to cancel the shoot as I’d have delivered by then,” she says with a laugh. However, upon hearing the news, her friends rushed to Singapore from Malaysia that same day, and did a casual maternity shoot with her in her house.
