A CONTRITE Jack Neo faced the media briefly on Thursday morning and apologised for his affairs with several young women, which have hogged the headlines for over five days after his mistress went public.
'It's all my fault,' Singapore's most successful film-maker, 50, told a packed press conference held at an auditorium in Scorpio East Building on Paya Lebar Road, where his production house is based.
Dressed in a black and white checked shirt, a grim-looking Neo, with his wife Irene Kng, 46, by his side, said in Mandarin: 'This has nothing to do with anyone else.
'I am lucky my wife has forgiven me. I am sorry she has to put up with the pain which no other woman could have gone through.'
At this point, he broke down and cried, burying his face in his hands.
When he regained his composure, he urged the media to give him 'a second chance', adding: 'I hope this is the last time we will speak to the press.'
His wife then spoke up.
'I love Jack. I love my marriage and I love my family,' said a sad-looking Madam Kng, dressed in a purple top and jeans.
Her voice choking, she added: 'I need your support. I really need your blessings.'
She, too, broke down and sobbed, and had to be helped off the stage by friends. When her knees gave way slightly, the pack of photographers rushed forward. Neo quickly dashed to his wife's side and shouted: 'Get away!'
The whole press conference was over in just five minutes.
