Jackie Chan is 69 years old and far from the image of an ideal family man. In his youth, as a rising star in China, he led a carefree life, often throwing parties and squandering money. At one such gathering, a girlfriend told him she was expecting his child. Fearing rumours and gossip, Chan sent the girl to the United States, where she spent her entire pregnancy alone. The actor himself visited the future mother only shortly before the birth. The couple formalised their relationship without any grand celebrations, and soon their son Jacey was born.
The actor’s family tried in every way to turn him against his wife, claiming that she only wanted his money. Under the influence of his relatives, Chan kept careful track of his young wife’s expenses. Later, the actor admitted that he had repeatedly cheated on his wife. Lin once caught him cheating, but decided not to make a scene, holding back her resentment. Jackie feared that she would start making public accusations, but his wife decided to remain calm and not discuss the problems with those around her.
Over time, Chan realised his mistakes. He admitted that for many years he had treated the woman who sincerely cared for him like an enemy. As a result, the actor began to spend more time at home and pay more attention to his wife. Moreover, he transferred all his property to Lin, leaving nothing to his son. Chang explained this decision by saying that he wanted Jacey to achieve success on his own, rather than relying on his father’s wealth.
Thus, over the years of the relationship between the actor and his wife, many changes have taken place, and now Jackie Chan strives to make his family more harmonious, leaving behind the role of a man who has learned to appreciate the support and patience of his spouse.
