Hong Kong actor Anthony Wong meets long-lost family – his twin half-brothers
The veteran actor posted a picture of his father on Facebook, and social media users scoured the internet to help him. Unfortunately, his father had passed away
It’s the gift of a lifetime he never expected to receive.
Hong Kong actor Anthony Wong has finally found the family he never met, after social media users scoured the internet to help him.
The 56-year-old star, who has appeared in hundreds of films and performances, is known for his outspoken views.
Last year, Wong posted a photo of his Chinese mother and British father on Facebook, asking for information on his father, Frederick William Perry.
According to him, his father had left him and his mother when he was just four years old, and he has not seen him since.
But today, thanks to the magic of the internet, Wong, who now identifies as Anthony Perry on Facebook, has finally found his roots.
The brothers, John and David, said they were on a cruise ship when they received an email from a cousin telling them of “a rather sensitive matter”.
Both brothers saw the photograph Wong had posted of his father, and immediately recognised the man in the photo.
