To the older generation, sons are prized more than girls.
Look at China’s one-birth policy. At that time, most families prayed that their kid is a son.
But now, we know how much a boy is worth: S$89 million.
Because that’s how much a model who married into Macau’s tycoon, Stanley Ho, is going to get.
Model Gives Birth To Healthy Baby Boy
This is Mario Ho, Stanley Ho’s son, together with his wife, Ming Xi, and their newborn son.
The couple got married back in June 2019 and gave birth to their son, Ronaldo, 3 months later.
During that time, Mario Ho didn’t talk about the reward that his wife will get.
However, he hinted that it will be “substantial”.
Reward Revealed: A Mansion Worth S$89 Million
According to Sina, the “substantial” reward was finally revealed.
It’s an HK$500 million (S$89 million) mansion located at Deep Water Bay.
This neighbourhood was dubbed the wealthiest neighbourhood by Forbes back in 2015.
Mario Ho was reported to have purchased the mansion last month when he reached 25 years old.
Elevation Of Status After Giving Birth
Ming Xi was originally not allowed to stay in Stanley Ho’s mansion even after she was married into the family.
However, now that she has given the Ho family their first grandson, it seems like she is going to get more recognition in the family.
The mansion that was purchased for her was said to be bought by Mario Ho’s mother, Angela Leong.
So, yes, seems like the Ho family’s grandson is worth HK$500 million.
A netizen said that with the birth of Ronaldo, Mario Ho is going to get a bigger slice of his family’s massive fortune.
However, he denied the allegation, saying that the family fortune’s distribution has been decided on “a long time ago”.
That and he didn’t need any more money.
So will we see more kids from the power couple?
That, we’ll have to see. While Mario Ho has expressed his wish to have more kids, he mentioned that his wife might not be willing to.
