Chinese starlet Isabella Leong gave birth to a baby boy on April 26 in Toronto, Canada.
Isabella, 21, and HKG billionaire Richard Li, 42, started their relationship in March 2008. There were rumours in early 2009 that the actress was pregnant, but nobody took it seriously.
Come to think of it… it’s probably the main reason why her ex-agency EEG had softened over their contract dispute; the company must have realised about the fact (probably told by Richard) and was made to reach the settlement deal in November 2008.
The baby’s name is Ethan Li Changzhi (loose translation). Best wishes.
Chinese star Isabella Leong has reached an out-of-court settlement with Emperor Entertainment Group (EEG) to cancel her contract with the agency, which literally means that Isabella is now a free agent and can do whatever she wants in future.
Isabella was AWOL in early 2008 and prompted EEG to file a lawsuit against her in April for breaching of contract; but Isabella, with the backing of her rich boyfriend, had counter-sued EEG for unfair contract terms instead.
The first court hearing for the cases was supposed to be held this morning (Nov 3), but reporters found out on Saturday that the hearing has been cancelled… EEG later confirmed that a settlement has been reached, but didn’t provide further details as the info is deemed confidential as part of the agreement.
Chinese starlet Isabella Leong is retaliating against her agency, the Emperor Entertainment Group (EEG), by suing the company for unfair contract terms.
Chinese starlet Isabella Leong is set to make her Hollywood debut in The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor (updated title), co-starring Brendan Fraser, Jet Li, Michelle Yeoh, Maria Bello, John Hannah and Luke Ford etc.
Actress Liu Yifei was previously tipped to be the hot favourite to land the role, but it’s obvious that it was just a rumour.
The movie will begin filming in July 2007 in Montreal, Canada, and Xi’an, China.
