Shannon Lee, Bruce Lee's daughter, was recently asked if her father ever told her stories about Ip Man. This was her response:
"My father didn't but my mom did. She told me my father truly loved and respected Yip Man (that's how my father spelled his name). He was loyal to him as his only teacher and all throughout his life, he always kept his wing chun skills and basics honed even though his own martial journey evolved. My father was thrilled to be able to introduce my brother to Yip Man and visited him everytime he came back to HK before Yip Man's passing. He truly thought of him as a father figure and was grateful to him for the philosophical thinking he instilled in him at such a young age."
