Before his scandal, American-born singer Jaycee Chan (房祖名) was often with his father, renowned actor Jackie Chan (成龙). However, it’s been years since the father-son pair have been spotted together in public, which is why this recent photo had many talking.
Recently, a XiaoHongShu user took to the platform to reveal that she had met Jackie and Jaycee while on a trip in Switzerland. The post included a photo of the two walking alongside a few other individuals. In the captions, the user wrote, “I met Jackie Chan at Lake Geneva! I was sitting on a chair by the lake, and when I turned around, I saw Jackie Chan! The guy in the black hat next to him was Jaycee Chan, but I couldn’t get a picture of him.”
While Jaycee’s face wasn’t shown in the picture, the image marks the first time he was seen in public with his father in years. The two had previously starred in many movies together, showcasing their father-son chemistry on screen. However, ever since the 42-year-old’s drug scandal in 2014, Jaycee has kept a low profile. His relationship with his father also reportedly took a toll, but, as the new photo shows, the two have since reconciled.
Jaycee has also stepped away from the entertainment industry, working mostly behind the scenes. His most recent public work was the single, “In Search Of Darkness”, released in August 2024. He also hasn’t made many public appearances in recent years, but was spotted at the wedding of Korean-American model Irene Kim. Since the star rarely updates his social media, it’s unknown where he plans to return to acting or singing.
Meanwhile, his father, Jackie, has remained active in the entertainment industry. In fact, the actor is in Switzerland to be honoured with the Pardo alla Carriera lifetime achievement award at the Locarno Film Festival. The award ceremony will take place on 9th August 2025 (Saturday), and there will also be a public panel conversation on the following day, where fans can meet the star. Jackie’s new film, “The Shadow’s Edge”, will also premiere later this month.
While Jackie and Jaycee may not appear together in public as often as they used to, it’s good to know that their relationship is still good behind the scenes. What are your thoughts on this?
