Lee Teng was filming a programme in Singapore in 2020 when he received news from his Taiwan-born wife Gina Lin, then seven months pregnant, that their unborn baby had no heartbeat.
“To be honest, my memory of that day is very hazy. I felt like an empty shell,” the 42-year-old Singaporean host recounted in the upcoming episode of Tuesday Report: Gone Before Goodbye, which airs tonight (July 14).
He shared that even though he travelled to Taiwan — where Gina had returned to about a month earlier to prepare for birth — as soon as possible to accompany her, they only saw each other in person about three weeks later because of the Covid-19 pandemic restrictions.
Lee Teng, who married Gina in 2020, said: “She’d lost so much weight… The difference was very stark. I remember when I sent her back to Taiwan to prepare for the birth, she was so bright and full of life. The next time I saw her, she looked completely drained.”
In late July 2020, he announced via an Instagram post that they had miscarried their baby, nicknamed Xiao Dou Ya.
In the programme, Gina shared that when she first heard their unborn child — a boy — no longer had a heartbeat, she couldn’t stop crying. Her mum told her they would face it together and not wait any longer by going to the hospital.
The 33-year-old recounted: “I remember very clearly that we were in the maternity ward and you could hear babies crying, but mine was so quiet.”
