You’ve been hearing about all sorts of news recently, from the possibility of another travel bubble, this time with Taiwan, to a Maserati driving against traffic and knocking down a poor food delivery rider.

Here’s one more to the mix.

A man in Singapore cheated on his girlfriend with their domestic helper and even had a child secretly.

Here’s what you need to know.

Girlfriend Learns About Affair Through Daughter

According to Lianhe Wanbao, the couple came to Singapore from China 10 years ago.

While not legally married, they lived together and even had a daughter.

Because both of them are working, they hired a 28-year-old Indonesian national as a domestic helper back in 2017 to help care for their daughter.

Everything seems to be going fine until 2019 when the woman’s toddler daughter told her that “father” was hugging “kakak” (Malay for sister).

Suspicious, the woman confronted her boyfriend who denied everything.

Warning Signs Cropped Up

Since then, the woman started spotting suspicious signs about the affair.

Even though school was just a few minutes away, her boyfriend insisted on driving the helper and their daughter to school and back home again.

The couple also had several arguments regarding his behaviour towards their domestic helper.

In the end, she decided to terminate the domestic helper’s contract early and even personally sent her to the airport and see her off.

You’re probably thinking: ahh, it finally ends. Right?

Well, not really.

Domestic Helper Still In S’pore

During the Circuit Breaker in Singapore, her boyfriend headed out to work daily.

Suspicious, the girlfriend checked his mobile phone and made a startling discovery.

Turns out, their ex-domestic helper was still living in Singapore, and to make the matter worse, she gave birth to a baby girl in May 2020 with her boyfriend.

Apparently, the domestic helper’s work permit has been extended and she’s been showing off the gifts given to her by her “lover” on social media.

MOM Investigating

The Ministry of Manpower (MOM) is now investigating the incident.

According to their statement, it’s investigating both “the employer and the domestic helper for offences under the Employment of Foreign Manpower Act”.

Work permit holders are not allowed to get pregnant or deliver a child in Singapore unless approved by the MOM, and even after their work permit is cancelled, revoked or expired, this rule still applies.

Should domestic helpers in Singapore get pregnant, employers are obligated to inform the ministry.

For contravening any condition of a work pass, a fine of up to $10,000, a jail term of up to a year, or both, could be imposed.
