Phua Leng Leng (born 25 June 1969), better known as Pan Lingling, is a Mediacorp actress.
Career
Pan entered the entertainment industry in 1988 after graduating from the Singapore Broadcasting Corporation's 8th Drama Artiste Training Course.[2] Her classmates in the training course include award-winning actress Huang Biren, Madeline Chu and Sean Say. She made her TV debut with the series, Mystery, Golden Quest, Ups and Downs. She also starred in Strange Encounters II in the same year.
Pan has acted in numerous television series produced by MediaCorp Channel 8 and its predecessors. She also played a supporting role as a psychologist in Jackie Chan's Crime Story.[2] After some twenty years in the entertainment industry, she won her first accolade at the Star Awards 2011, the Best Supporting Actress award for her role in Breakout.[3]
In 25 July 2018, there was a tension between Hong Huifang & Pan. Pan also replied to 8 days magazines queries via text: “Sorry, I can't talk right now. Filming and won't talk about the issue regarding friendship. Thousands of apologies," she wrote. It was rumoured that Hong Huifang 's son, Calvert and Julie Tan are dating. Pan has since apologised to Tan's mother for slandering her daughter, according to Chinese-language daily Lianhe Wanbao.
According to the Chinese paper, Pan had brought up some private matter involving Calvert much to Hong Huifang’s displeasure. Pan then reportedly continued to talk about Calvert’s matters on a group chat. This was apparently the straw that broke the camel’s back and the reason Hong Huifang decided cut Pan out of her life.
Personal life
Pan is married to former MediaCorp actor Huang Shinan. They have two sons, Beckham Wee (born 1999) and Kynaston Wee (born 2002).[4]
Pan was diagnosed with Stage 1 breast cancer in March 2013. She kept her illness from the media initially, revealing only that a cyst was removed from her breast. She approached the magazine 8 Days in May that year for an interview on her illness, but withdrew. Her cancer story was revealed only nearly a year later in the 1,222th issue of 8 Days in late March 2014. Pan is now cancer free.
