Jessica Kan announces engagement to Derek Mackesy

9 Apr - Jessica Kan recently announced that she is now engaged to be married to former Cathay Dragon pilot and TVB artiste, Derek Mackesy.

The actress and TV personality shared the good news on social media on 7 April with several engagement photos, including one where Derek held a white balloon with the words "Will you marry me?" on it, while Jessica's balloon reads, "Yes! Yes! Yes!"

"I said... Yes!" she posted. "Sorry we kind of kept it from everyone for a while. I just really wanted him to have the spotlight he deserved, regaining his Captain seat, after all the time and effort he had put in!"

"We always joke around saying how when we first met, he had just lost his job. After he got his job back, I lost my job... Guess we've seen each other's best and worst! @derekmackesy Thank you for always looking after me. I promise I'll stop eating all your food," she added.

It is noted that Jessica left TVB in June last year.

As for Derek, the TV personality wrote, "Yes, it's happening! To my JK, you've amazed me since day 1. From my lowest point back in 2021 through to the peak I have recently achieved, you've been there. In return, I promise I will feed you for life."

The couple first met through the reality show, "SUPER FIVE" in 2021.
