Ting Ting has photos of her and little baby Bamboo… but Hugh isn’t in any of them
An intriguing portrait of the Chinese beauty who’s had Hugh Grant’s baby – by her ex-boyfriend. And he insists the actor’s affair with her was far more than ‘fleeting’
The Mail on Sunday6 Nov 2011by Jo Macfarlane
TOGETHER: Ting Ting and Hugh on a night out in London in January
WHEN Tinglan Hong arrived at her former boyfriend Robert Hodge’s home at the end of October, the first thing he noticed was that her normally petite frame appeared to have gained weight. It had been several months since they had last met but now Tinglan, 31, was visiting Robert to discuss changing her silver Mercedes CLK car – a two-door coupe – for a bigger vehicle.
Initially, it seemed an odd request. But suddenly Robert understood.
‘I said to her, “You’ve done it, haven’t you? You’ve had the baby”.’
Tinglan, known to all as Ting Ting, then confirmed what Robert had suspected for several months – that she had given birth to a child fathered by actor Hugh Grant.
The news last week that famously dedicated bachelor Grant, 51, had become a father for the first time came with a backhanded dismissal when his publicists described his time with Ting Ting as ‘a fleeting affair’.
For Robert, 55, a buyer for a specialist car company who spent 18 months dating Ting Ting before she met Grant, it brought mixed emotions.
It brought to mind the day in April 2010 when Ting Ting had told him, with barely concealed excitement, that she had begun playing golf with Grant after meeting him in an upmarket wine bar in Chelsea.
Far from their contact being ‘fleeting’, Robert says that over the months that followed, Ting Ting confessed that she and Hugh had regularly been spending time together.
Although she denied they were romantically involved, Robert suspected there was far more to their relationship.
But as Ting Ting showed him pictures of their dark-haired daughter, he could be in no doubt. He listened as Ting Ting proudly told him that her little girl had been nicknamed Bamboo but that her Chinese name translated as ‘Happy Accident’.
It was perhaps more happy for Ting Ting than for Grant.
Although reportedly ‘delighted’ at
The child’s Chinese name translates into ‘Happy Accident’
becoming a father, the Notting Hill actor is said to have been absent during the child’s birth and spent just half an hour with his daughter before heading to Scotland to play golf.
Last week, he was pictured with a German burlesque dancer, said to be the latest object of his affections.
Robert, a divorced father- - of - four from Wandsworth, South London, claims to have no hard feelings towards Grant. But the star’s behaviour towards his former girlfriend, for whom he still cares deeply, has clearly irked him.
Robert says: ‘I don’t think he has been as considerate as he could have been, no. He has brought all this attention on her but doesn’t want to take responsibility for any of it.
‘He has been able to turn up at her house in his Ferrari, bringing the paparazzi straight to her door, and then leave the country again.
‘Meanwhile, it’s Ting Ting who has been left to deal with all of this. Now he’s apparently with this burlesque dancer.
‘It’s all very well that his publicist has described his time with Ting Ting as a fleeting romance but it wasn’t fleeting.
‘At one time, he told people she was a big part of his life – it’s not very fair that he has dismissed that. Even if he isn’t with her, he has had a hand in creating this situation.’
So far, little is known about the mother of Grant’s child other than that she was brought up in the town of Lishni in Zhejiang Province, Eastern China. But Robert, who has been divorced for 11 years, is now able to offer an intriguing insight.
He first met Ting Ting in 2006 at the Dog and Fox pub in the centre of exclusive Wimbledon village in South-west London. Attracted by her vivacious and bubbly personality, Robert asked her to join his group and the pair became friends.
Ting Ting had just graduated from a hotel management degree at the University of Surrey in Guildford after arriving in the UK several years previously. She told Robert she was running an internet-based import and export business from her tiny flat in New Malden, Surrey.
It took two years for their friendship to deepen into a romantic relationship.
Robert recalls: ‘It got to the stage we both wanted to be together. She was never moody, always a really nice person to be around. She doesn’t drink alcohol, but is always the life and soul of any gathering. She has huge character and likes spontaneity, to go with the flow.
‘If you met her she’d be friendly and witty and would put people at ease. She picks up on a thread of conversation and will drop in a funny one-liner.
‘She’s a little bit crazy and quite often does something weird – a funny facial expression or little mannerism.
‘It was her innocence that made her a bit cheeky. We laughed a lot together.’
A fan of the latest fashions, Ting Ting dressed in designer labels, favouring £500 Louboutin heels and Gucci handbags. Robert says it was not clear how she could afford such luxuries, but believes her family in China sent her a monthly allowance.
Although she rarely talked about her family, she appeared to have a very close relationship with them and chatted to her mother regularly on the phone. Robert’s impression was that they were moderately well-off – describing them as ‘not wealthy, but not rice farmers’.
The couple spent about five nights a week together enjoying London’s nightlife, going out to restaurants and bars and to adult puppet show Avenue Q.
One night in late 2008, Ting Ting went out with friends to Brinkley’s, a wine bar in Chelsea popular with well-heeled local celebrities including Elizabeth Hurley, Hugh Grant, cricketer Kevin Pietersen and Chelsea footballer Frank Lampard.
‘The next day she showed me this photograph on her phone with Hugh Grant.
‘We laughed about it and she’d bring it out to show people but I didn’t think any more about it.
‘Generally, she wasn’t really interested in celebrity, she didn’t buy those magazines.’
Quieter evenings were spent in Robert’s flat with DVDS of Bond movies or the Bourne trilogy and Ting Ting was a fabulous cook.
‘She would often spend two hours cooking really good, traditional Chinese food. Things you’d dip; noodles, meat and fish. We’d eat it together with chopsticks.
‘She enjoyed looking after me, playing the housewife.’
Robert introduced her to his friends and family. His four children, aged between 18 and 32, took to her immediately.
One Sunday she met his elderly parents for lunch at their home in Fetcham, Surrey.
‘She helped Mum in the kitchen, bringing plates and food through and helping clear up. She got on with everyone. She engaged in conversation and didn’t just sit quietly in the corner. My parents thought she was great. She treated them with enormous amounts of respect and was wellmannered.
‘It was important to me that they liked her, and it helped me picture a future together.’
They went to the Belgian Grand Prix together in September 2008 and, after spending Christmas with Robert’s mother and eldest daughter Candice, travelled to Chamonix in the French Alps for a skiing holiday over New Year.
They stayed in a chalet with five friends and Ting Ting, who had never skied before, had three mornings of lessons before also trying out a snowboard.
Robert says: ‘She would fall over and just giggle at herself.
‘One night, while we were in a bar in the resort, she realised she was the only Chinese person. So she stood up on the bar itself and started waving her arms around and shouting, in a mock Chinese accent: “Hawo everybody! I am Ting Ting from China!”
‘Everyone loved it and started applauding and shouting back. She’s certainly not shy about coming forward.’
Their relationship became more
serious and Robert says Ting Ting talked about wanting to settle down. But Robert was not keen to move too fast after his marriage breakdown and says Ting Ting accepted that.
‘She wanted a stable life with someone. But we didn’t talk about moving in together. I think she respected my situation, but she wanted children. We never spoke about it seriously, but it was clear.’
Oddly, Ting Ting never invited Robert into her flat, a rented, ground-floor bedsit on a busy road. It did not strike Robert as suspicious and he says he never asked to go inside.
But there was undoubtedly an element of secrecy in their relationship. Robert knew little of her family, and admits he has no idea what goods she was involved in importing. There is no record of her business at Companies House and Robert does not know what her visa status is.
After graduating in 2006, Ting Ting was entitled to a two-year poststudy work visa, which would have expired in 2008. Robert dismisses these things and says, again, that he simply did not ask the questions.
Ting Ting returned to China for a family visit in late 2009 and stayed for two months. During the trip, she emailed Robert some racy modelling photographs she had taken at a studio as part of a ‘vanity shoot’ – popular among young Chinese women.
Robert says: ‘It didn’t really fit in with her character. Yes, she’s gregarious but these were saucy.’
Once she returned, in early 2010, things had changed.
‘I’d try to make arrangements and she’d say, “I can’t make it tonight.” That was really strange. Something was wrong.’
After several weeks Ting Ting broke off the relationship, claiming she needed time to herself.
‘I had very strong feelings for her but I had to respect what she wanted.’
Robert had no contact with Ting Ting until, one day, he bumped into one of her friends, a Taiwanese girl named Amy.
He says: ‘I asked her how Ting Ting was doing. She laughed, and said she had been hanging around with Hugh Grant.
‘I was surprised. But I assumed she meant Ting Ting had seen him in Brinkley’s again.’
Robert got the chance to ask her directly when she agreed to meet him in April 2010 at the Thai Square bar on the banks of the Thames at Putney.
‘I asked her how things were going and she said that she had started playing golf at the Wisley Club. That was strange. She’d never been into golf before.’ Robert knew that the Wisley Club, a private members golf club in Surrey, was hugely exclusive, with a reputed joining fee of £40,000 and an annual £4,000 membership charge.
‘I asked her who she knew who had membership. She kept saying, “Oh, just a friend.”
‘Eventually she told me it was Hugh Grant. She had been having lessons and would walk around the course with Hugh and watch him play.
‘I asked her how on earth she knew him and she said – as I had suspected – they’d met in Brinkley’s again, a few weeks earlier. She didn’t give any indication they were romantically involved.’
Robert and Ting Ting spoke on the phone occasionally and she told him she was spending most weekends with Hugh playing golf, but always denied a relationship.
During one telephone call in July 2010, Robert asked if she wanted to meet the following day.
‘She said: “Actually, I’m going round to Hugh’s to watch the World Cup Final.” There was no doubt who she meant. I was pretty surprised. I left it at that.’
The pair were not in regular contact again until April 2011 when
Robert took a call from an excited friend who told him there were photographs in the newspapers of Ting Ting with Hugh, amid speculation that she was pregnant.
‘I looked up the pictures online and laughed. Of course it was Ting Ting. It was obvious to me that they were in a relationship.
‘I called her up and asked her if she was pregnant.
‘She just laughed and said, “No, it’s just the papers making up stories.” Again, she didn’t admit they were a couple.
‘We arranged to meet in the bar of the Mayfair Hotel soon afterwards. I was curious – I wanted to find out if she really was pregnant.
‘She had definitely put on some weight, but she denied it. But when I asked if she was romantically involved with Hugh, she admitted it for the first time.
‘She didn’t say they were a couple, I think she said they were seeing each other.’
In the middle of May, Ting Ting invited Robert to dinner.
‘The really strange thing was that she asked me to come to Brinkley’s. We sat down at a table; her facing the door.
‘She kept saying, “Oh, I’ve put so much weight on.” I teased her about being pregnant but she continued to deny it.
‘During our second course, Hugh walked in. She said, “Oh. It’s Hugh.”
‘I said, “Well, this is a bit embarrassing, isn’t it?”
‘He came straight over but they didn’t embrace or even look like close friends. She introduced us and said, “Hugh, this is Robert.”
‘She stood up and they chatted, very briefly, although I can’t remember what they said.
‘He then turned and said something extremely strange to me. He nodded at my plate and said, “What have you got there?”
‘I said, “Oh, Dover sole.” He made a face. He said: “Fish. Very strange. A bit like smoking.”
‘It was so odd I didn’t know what to say. I joked, “It’s not as dangerous is it?” He shrugged and said, “I suppose not.” Then he walked off.
It was the strangest thing to say. Again, I said, “That was a bit embarrassing.” ’
In retrospect, Robert wonders if he was set up in a bid to make Hugh jealous. Ting Ting was by now five
She said that Liz Hurley had visited and was going to be the godmother
months pregnant and judging by their odd greeting it appears things between them had cooled.
What happened next makes it clear there was a rather bizarre game in play.
Robert recalls: ‘Hugh went off to another table to join some friends. One was a very good-looking young woman, with long dark hair, who was probably only 22 or 23. He seemed to flirt with her, putting a hand on her arm.
‘Ting Ting was not happy. She said something like, “Look at that. That’s his latest girlfriend.”
‘It was said jokingly, but now I’m sure she was bitter.’
The next time Robert heard from Ting Ting was last week, on October 27. She rang him and asked if he could help sell her car, and then brought it round that afternoon. Then, she confessed she had given birth to Hugh’s child. Robert says: ‘She said her parents had come over from China to look after the baby. She seemed happy, quite well, not at all tired or harassed. She also showed me some photos on her phone.
‘Bamboo looked sweet, with dark hair. There were none of her with Hugh.
‘I was happy for her. There were some mixed feelings, obviously, as I still care about her. Then she said, “Pity we can’t get back together.”
‘I was surprised. I said, “What about Hugh?”
‘She said he was “very strange”. She didn’t expand on that.
‘She went on to say he was a good father. She said: “Whenever he’s in the country, he comes to see Bamboo.”
‘I didn’t think that sounded like a good father. She also told me he wouldn’t put his name on the birth certificate until March.
‘She didn’t say why, although I assume it’s to avoid anyone knowing he’s the father.
‘She hasn’t mentioned paternity tests, so I don’t know if it’s something Hugh wanted.’
Ting Ting also said Liz Hurley had been to see Bamboo and that she was to be the child’s godmother.
Robert says Ting Ting will cope, though she might be feeling let down.
‘I think she’ll be quite sad at the moment. She was looking for stability and children and in a way she’s got it. But it doesn’t look like she has someone standing by her.
‘She’ll brush it off and laugh about it. That’s what’s in her nature.
‘And she’ll be a brilliant mum. She’s very caring. The pictures of her with her Louboutin shoes and Gucci bags don’t do her justice.
‘Underneath it all she’s a very traditional Chinese girl. She’s homely – not a princess.’
成王败寇,俺觉得她有点像低配版邓文迪。如果她当年真凭孩子嫁进去,可能一众人还会膜拜她。
邓文迪可不是靠生孩子嫁给默多克的。是默多克看准中国市场,而邓文迪的自我推销让他买账。
她们的当年的目标不就都是嫁进去,然后生个孩子。(邓最后也想办法搞了孩子)
不论是靠市场,还是靠自己的肚子,不管黑猫白猫,捉住老鼠就是好猫。

不论是靠市…
[/qu赞你的评论。
婷婷怕这里诸多长舌妇,所以不愿意混着中国圈吧。人家过的肯定比这里众屌丝强。她当年和单身未婚男朋友生2个娃,违反法律还是道德了?当年老男人又没结婚,男女朋友生娃在国外很普遍。男的也愿意认爹愿意承担责任,也公开认她是家人,人家到是正大光明的。
结婚就好?不可以是她玩他利用他?生2娃一定是女人被玩弄?不可以是女人岁数到了自己想生育?不结婚多自由,没觉得最后和这么老的男人结婚是赢家,毕竟这么老了。
反正要生娃,给自己娃弄个个帅气有名气有财富还是牛津毕业的沾亲带故点贵族血统的爹,没毛病
混英国圈,就没人说了吗?这些新闻都是英国报社挖出来的。狗仔在她的住处蹲点看Hugh什么时候来看孩子。Hugh很少出现,来了也待不长时间就走了。前男友一邊一往情深在記者面前爆料,一邊拿著錢,就比吃瓜群眾議論幾句高大上了?
她没生孩子前生活就比众屌丝强,還是富二代。她想生孩子是真的。Hugh公开她是家人,是保护他的形象,也吸取了第一個孩子出生的時候他用了很難聽的詞的教訓。她喜歡與Hugh在一起是真的,她不差钱,开了个公司叫bamboo icon limited.可明显她动了情,Hugh五个月后不领情。
在国外未婚生娃当然普遍,我们又不是清朝人.
她当初不畏惧任由记者拍她和Hugh当街激吻的时候,不可能没想过会受到别人的关注吧。她敢做出來,吃瓜群眾為何不敢議論?
不是个越南妞吗?
她有啥意思呀亲、 要挖就挖中国女婿老婆。
要保持隊形,不能歪樓。他們倆的黑料也被別人扒過。
知道为啥现在狗仔队不能报道她吗?Hugh早给她向法庭申请了狗仔队远离他们母子三人的禁止令了。
你这不是八卦,你通篇用词和思维都是是站在男权立场充斥着对女性的恶意侮辱和践踏。 一个嫖妓老头,颜值都归零了,现在难看的像沙皮狗的脸,嫁给他在你眼里是成功,真是佩服。说不定人家婷婷只是利用他,弄2颗免费精子,给孩子找个有钱牛津爹。
她也就是操了一个男明星,在你眼里性爱是女人被玩弄?你可真有意思
怎麼不知道她有了法院禁令,才沒有她們最近的消息呢。再不申請禁令,就要出車禍了。也為婷婷高興給孩子們找了個有錢牛津的嫖妓老頭。她也就是操了個男明星。
为什么不八八更好玩的 Mrs Clark ?
鞋王老婆中国外卖店打工的女人?
楼主走火入魔了。
毕竟是一代英伦情人,超级大IP
渣修这颜值,还要啥自行车啊。。。。。。
更想八kathy杨,和香港富豪生了孩子现在带着孩子翘弯弯离异名媛墙角,男的或是澳门黑背景
