HONG KONG – Linna, a former contestant of the 2014 Miss Hong Kong pageant, announced the birth of her first child, a son, on social media early Monday. The new mother shared a series of intimate photographs and a heartfelt message welcoming the baby into the world.
Linna, 32, and her husband Jack were married in Bali, Indonesia, on September 25 last year. In June, the couple revealed they were expecting. Three months later, Linna took to social media to announce the arrival of their son.
In the photos, Linna appears in good spirits shortly after delivery, posing with her husband and newborn. The series includes images of the baby just after birth, cradled in her arms, and a moment of breastfeeding. In her post, written in English, Linna said she “welcomed my son to the world.” She described an overwhelming and unexpected love the first time she made eye contact with the baby and held him, adding that the world around her seemed to fade away, leaving only the tiny life that had been growing inside her for nine months.
The new mother also injected some humor, noting that she would share more pictures later because the “new mom needs a nap.” In a gentle reminder, she declared the post a “breastfeeding-friendly zone,” stressing that breastfeeding is the most natural way to feed a baby and should be normalized.
Linna, whose Cantonese name is Wong Bik Lin, is a familiar face to local entertainment fans. After her appearance in the Miss Hong Kong pageant, she worked as a television host and actress. Her journey into motherhood has been closely followed by fans.
The announcement has drawn an outpouring of congratulations from followers and fellow celebrities on social media. Many praised her openness about the realities of childbirth and her call for a judgment-free approach to breastfeeding.
As Linna embarks on this new chapter, the posts offer a window into the early days of parenthood, a time of joy, exhaustion, and learning. Her decision to share both the emotional and practical sides of the experience has resonated with many new parents.
For now, the family is enjoying their first days together. Linna has promised more updates but said rest is the priority. The birth marks a significant milestone for the couple, who have celebrated a wedding, a pregnancy announcement, and now the birth of a child in the span of a year.
