It's a girl for Athena Chu and Beyond's Paul Wong

HONG KONG - It's a girl for sex symbol Athena Chu and guitarist Paul Wong.

Wong, formerly of Cantorock band Beyond, announced on Weibo yesterday evening the birth of his first child with actress Chu.

Posting a few photos of the baby, he wrote: "Ladies and gentleman, here's the gorgeous freshly baked char siew bun. She says to friends who are concerned about her, 'I have gone home with Mum and Dad.'"

Wong, 48, and Chu, who will turn 41 tomorrow, announced the pregnancy in April. He said then they would speed up their marriage plans.
