Helping us get up when we fall and teaching us to ride a bike are some of the things we can remember about our parents. But for actress Eleanor Lee, she has little to no memory of her father.
Her parents, local TV host Quan Yi Fong and actor Peter Yu, divorced in 2008 when Eleanor was just nine years old. After the separation, the couple did not keep in touch for many years, and Peter abandoned Eleanor’s life entirely.
So it’s no wonder the 21-year-old can’t remember much about her father, except for vague memories of family vacations and when her parents argued.
In the second part of the interview with Yi Fong on the talk show meWATCH Hear U Out, Eleanor, who occasionally referred to her mother in the third person, shared that she was scared whenever her parents fought.
“Sometimes I just wanted to open the door and yell, stop fighting! But I didn’t have the courage and I didn’t know how to stop them,” he said, adding that he felt powerless at the time.
However, he does not regret not having a father.
“Because my mom has filled both parents’ shoes,” he explained. “It could also be that since I don’t have a father, I don’t know what I’m missing.”
When Eleanor sees children with their parents, she wonders what a father’s love is like, but not for the reason we think. She explained, “I want a husband like that, not because I want a father like that.”
Now the budding star has strict standards, noting that she needs to know what kind of husband her future partner will be.

“I want to fulfill my dreams of having a complete family. I don’t want to have a broken family, not because I don’t have a dad but because I don’t want to end up like you,” he told her. mother Yi Fong.
[[nid:505618]]Eleanor clarified that she does not want her future children to go through the same experience that she had, because she knows how it feels when their parents fight every day.“So I am determined to find myself a good man,” she concluded.
Although Peter is no longer keeping in touch with his ex-wife and daughter, Yi Fong shared last year that she has forgiven her ex-husband and that they no longer had animosity between them.
In a Facebook live stream last week, Yi Fong also said that he is now on good terms with Peter. He later said that the video and other posts were removed from the platform due to technical issues.
