Jenny Tseng (Ch: 甄妮) is a Cantopop diva who sang many songs, especially duets with Roman Tam, such as music of TVB's 1983 adaptation The Legend of the Condor Heroes. She is the widow of kung fu movie star Alexander Fu Sheng. Regretably, they didn't have any children when her husband died in a car accident in 1983. But years later, Jenny made a bold and controversial decision to have an illegitimate child of her own. She gave birth to daughter Melody in 1988. Until this day, the name of the father is unknown to the public.
