The 89-year-old Singaporean had a popular cooking programme on local television in the 1980s and 1990s, but has since retired from the small screen.
Her daughter, known as Ah Bao, still gives updates on the beloved personality via Fong's Facebook page.
On June 30, Ah Bao posted a photo of herself with her mother after a lunch outing and wrote a post of over 3,000 words in Chinese that revealed Fong's recent bout of ill health. The pair live in Hong Kong.
Ah Bao said: "Today is June 30, which is a day worth celebrating to me because a month ago, on May 30, Fang Tai was discharged from the hospital and came home. Forgive me for not having the time nor the mood to update everyone when things were happening, because for the 20 days Fang Tai was in the hospital, I was by her side and did not return home."
She added that she first observed Fong going to the toilet more than usual at the end of April. Ah Bao took her mother to the doctor, where she was diagnosed with urethritis, an inflammation of the urethra, and prescribed a week's worth of antibiotics.
