Amy Yip (Chinese: 葉子楣; pinyin: Yè Zǐmèi; born 10 July 1965 in Hong Kong) is an actress who was one of the leading sex symbols of Hong Kong cinema in the late 1980s and early 1990s. She was known for her slender figure and her disproportionately large breasts. She has family roots in Taishan, Guangdong.

Biography

Numerous rumours have surfaced over the years about Yip married to her long term orthopedics surgeon-boyfriend Lim Kiam Hwee, and being pregnant. In an early 2006 interview with an East Weekly reporter who spotted Yip walking her dog at Repulse Bay, however, she said she was in a steady relationship with her boyfriend of more than 15 years and had no intention of getting married or having children. She added she had food and beverage businesses set up in Hong Kong and Macau that kept her busy and occupied.

When asked if she would consider a comeback in show business, Yip flatly rejected the idea, saying that she was very happy with her carefree lifestyle and had no desire of going back to filming long hours and traveling intensively for movies and record publicity. She also said that she is content not showing her breasts to make a living.

Triad leader Chiu (Ray Lui) calls up a meeting hoping to find someone willing to adopt an abandoned male infant he picked up in Temple Street. During the meeting, nobody was able to stop the infant from crying until it was passed to a servant's arms. He is Tong Chau-sui (Ng Man-tat), who is chosen as the adoptive father of the infant. Because there were twelve people in the meeting and everyone were the infant's godparents, Chiu names the infant Tong Sap-yee (lit. "Tong Twelve"), whom everyone calls as "Prince Twelve".
