Growing Up cast reunion: Who was there, who was missing and where the Tay siblings are now

A September 2026 meal brought part of Growing Up’s Tay family back together: Irin Gan joined her on-screen parents, Lim Kay Tong and Wee Soon Hui, at a gathering shared by fellow cast member Amy Cheng. The photos offered fans a glimpse of the cast together, though not every Tay sibling was pictured. 14

Who attended the reunion?

Cheng posted photos on September 21 showing Gan, Lim and Wee at the meal, along with Ivan Tay and Ng Say Yong. Gan played eldest daughter Vicky Tay; Lim and Wee played her parents, Mr and Mrs Tay. Cheng played Karen, the wife of eldest son Gary. 124

Cheng described an afternoon of catching up and laughing with former colleagues. Fans responded with nostalgia. One commenter wrote, “They don’t make TV shows like that anymore,” while coverage of the reunion also noted fans’ hopes for a reboot. Neither reaction amounts to an announcement of a new series. 124

What was Growing Up about?

The Singapore drama followed the Tay family as its children came of age against the backdrop of 1960s Singapore. Sources commonly date its run from 1996 to 2001, although a retrospective describes it as running through 2002. 111520

Its on-screen siblings included Gary, played by Andrew Seow; Vicky, played by Gan; David, played by Steven Lim; and youngest sibling Tammy, later played by Jamie Yeo. 1722

Which cast members were missing?

Seow, Steven Lim and Yeo were not among the people identified in the September 2026 reunion photo. That establishes who was pictured—not why anyone else did not attend. 422

The separate 2021 reunion should not be confused with this meal. A report on that On the Red Dot special names Lim Kay Tong, Wee Soon Hui, Yeo and Benedict Goh at an in-person gathering, but the available account does not establish a complete attendance list. It would be misleading to name definitive absentees from the 2021 reunion on that basis. 15

Where are Gan and her on-screen siblings now?

• Irin Gan (Vicky): Gan left show business. A 2025 profile reported that she worked in pharmaceutical consumer-health marketing. 18
• Andrew Seow (Gary): In July 2025, Seow was reported to be working as an auxiliary police officer with Aetos. 11
• Steven Lim (David): The available sources identify his role in the series but do not establish a reliable current occupation. 1722
• Jamie Yeo (Tammy): Yeo previously worked as an ESPN Star Sports presenter. A 2025 retrospective described her as still involved in arts and entertainment, but the available excerpts do not specify a current job. 1922

Those career details come from reporting published in 2025 or earlier, rather than a new update from the reunion itself.
