Early life
Grace Wong was born in Hong Kong and emigrated to the United States with her family at the age of four. She grew up in Brooklyn and Queens in New York City.[1] She attended Babson College[2] and went to Hong Kong for an exchange program at the Chinese University of Hong Kong.[1]
Career
In December 2021, Wong announced via Weibo and Instagram that her fourteen years contract with TVB had ended.[3] Reports suggest that she may have refused to renew her contract with TVB because she was dissatisfied that her co-star, Tiffany Lau, had more screen time than her in the drama series "I've Got The Power".
In April 2022, Wong participated in the Youku-produced Chinese mainland variety show "GREAT DANCE CREW".[4] In September 2022, she released a new single in mainland China titled "Don't Take My Love for You for humility".[5]
