Charmaine Sheh is Still Thinking About Her Future Plans

Leaving TVB? Charmaine Sheh has yet decide.

The TVB actress accepted a radio interview yesterday and talked about her contract with TVB again. Whether she would renew her contract, leave and sign another management company, or just sign a new manager, she is still thinking and it would be announced in 2 months.

"The final decision would be made base on job opportunities, quality of work, and sense of security."

Charmaine expressed both TVB and companies in Mainland have good offers. She would definitely miss TVB if she leaves. She denied not willing to renew her contract just because she lost TV Queen to Sheren Tang last year.

"I'm not that superficial," she said. "It's not like awards aren't important, but I don't value things with them. I just want to reach another peak in my career."

Reports also said the 35-year-old finds her Mr. Right in Mainland, which is why she is eager to focus in the Mainland market. But she denied, saying she rather quit showbiz if she finds her Mr. Right.

"It's all made up!," she cleared up. "Plus I like him to be older [the man in the report is 24-years-old] and taller, so he can teach me things and take care of me."

The singer happily announced she was pregnant again in January and confirmed it would be twin girls a month later. Being extremely careful while carrying her daughters, unfortunately she still had a miscarriage recently. She announced this sad news on her official website yesterday, thanking people who took care of her and assuring everyone.

"Just been through the toughest week in life...After trying very hard, our two daughters still cannot be with us. Doctors said there is no specific reason. Here I would like to thank doctors and nurses in Queen Mary Hospital for taking care of me, encouraging and comforting me. Everyone, don't worry. I will have a good rest. I will see you guys again when I'm ready. Thank you everyone for your blessings! Kelly."

The 39-year-old always wanted to have a second child after she gave birth to a son in 2009. She tried IVF earlier and it succeed in bringing her twins. Doctors already told her it would be risky and she was very careful the whole time; she rarely goes out and attends to jobs like she did during first pregnancy.

However, in the 5th month of pregnancy, Chen noticed signs of labor and immediately went to the hospital to monitor her babies' condition. Sadly, her twin girls couldn't make it in the end.

Chen's husband and 1-year-old son were there with her in the hospital. The upset mom has returned home already. As for whether she would try IVF to get pregnant again, her manager disclosed that is not what the family is thinking right now.

"Now she's not thinking about anything else," he said. "Wait after she regains a good health."
