In a recent interview, Tong has revealed that she and mother did not have a good relationship when she was younger. The 33-year old actress said that she had been unappreciative of her mother until she passed away in 2010.

The actress shared that she used to be very dependent on her mother, however, they did not get to spend much time together as her mother had been too busy with work.

"I blamed her then," says Tong, adding that when she became older and her mother would request to spend more time her, she would find it annoying.

"I didn't treasure her love for me, but I really do love her and I've been unable to tell her," the actress said, citing the year her mother died and she received an award.

Back in 2010, Tong was the recipient of TVB's Most Improved Actress Award. During her acceptance speech, Tong broke into tears, saying that she wanted to share the award with her late mother.

The actress shared that when she was on stage to receive the award, she really wanted to tell her mother the things she said during her speech. She admitted that she hadn't been a good daughter to her mother when she was younger, regretting it as it is too late to make it up to her.

On a side note, despite claiming to be a bad daughter, the actress is forgiving in nature as seen in how she was able to forgive her former boyfriend Amigo Chui despite having cheated on her in the past.

The actress claims that they are good friends who support each other and has even publicly wished for the actor to have a happy life in his current relationship.

As for Tong's love life, she said that she is single, but may consider dating her 'Rear Mirror' co-star Tony Hung after bein embroiled in dating rumors with the actor.
