WP leaders aware of Leon Perera, Nicole Seah alleged affair in early 2021: Sources
The Straits Times
|July 19, 2023
Talk of the two frequenting hotels and behaving inappropriately emerged in 2020
Rumours of an affair between Aljunied GRC MP Leon Perera and senior Workers' Party (WP) member Nicole Seah began swirling within party circles between late 2020 and early 2021, The Straits Times has learnt.
Allegations about the duo frequenting hotels and behaving inappropriately with each other since mid-2020 had made their rounds among WP members, and the issue was brought up to party leaders around early 2021.
Mr Perera was mentoring Ms Seah at the time, and while it was expected that they would be spending more time with each other, sources who spoke to ST said some felt there was more happening between the pair.
Text messages seen by ST showed that those who were told about the allegations included WP chairman Sylvia Lim and Sengkang GRC MP Jamus Lim.
