I felt like an empty shell, but I still finished filming that day. Looking back now, I honestly don&#8217;t know how I managed to get through it,&#8221; he recalled.<\/p>\n<p>Strict cross-border restrictions were also in place at the time, meaning Lee Teng had to undergo a mandatory two-week quarantine upon arriving in Taiwan before he could see his wife.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I could only see my baby one last time through a video call. That&#8217;s something I&#8217;ll always regret because I never got the chance to hold or touch him in person.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>After arriving in Taiwan, Lee Teng put his career on hold for three months to stay by his wife&#8217;s side and support her through her grief.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I missed out on some work opportunities, but I don&#8217;t regret it at all. A wound like this doesn&#8217;t heal overnight. Only time can slowly ease the pain,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>Lee Teng, who described himself as an optimistic person, said he focused all his energy on caring for his wife&#8217;s physical and emotional well-being during that period.<\/p>\n<p>He encouraged her to recover and held on to the belief that the child meant for them would one day come into their lives.<\/p>\n<p>The couple welcomed Ellison in July 2025. Looking back on everything they had been through, Lee Teng said it still feels surreal.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<center><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.channelnewsasia.com\/entertainment\/lee-teng-gina-lin-miscarriage-pandemic-6254906\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article At Source <\/a><br \/>\n<center\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>However, while he was filming a programme, he received a message from his wife telling him that their baby&#8217;s heart had stopped beating. &#8220;I was&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":68823,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/dam.mediacorp.sg\/image\/upload\/s--1bk9QQjV--\/c_crop,h_900,w_1600,x_0,y_67\/c_fill,g_auto,h_676,w_1200\/f_auto,q_auto\/v1\/mediacorp\/cna\/image\/2026\/07\/15\/lee_teng_miscarriage_pandemic.jpg?itok=8ZkBZujz","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[2024,763,3470,1063,135,3633,23055,5728,2154,2705],"class_list":["post-68822","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-buzz-news-sg-global","tag-chance","tag-hold","tag-host","tag-lee","tag-miscarriage","tag-opens","tag-pandemic","tag-teng","tag-touch","tag-wifes","wpcat-2-id"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/68822","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=68822"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/68822\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/68823"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=68822"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=68822"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=68822"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
