EMBATTLED film-maker Jack Neo is undergoing counselling from his church in a bid to repair his marriage, after news of his extramarital affair with a 22-year-old model broke last Saturday.
A spokesman for City Harvest Church, of which Neo has been a member for almost two years, tells Life! that one of its pastors is now speaking regularly to Neo and his wife, Madam Irene Kng, 46.
She said: 'We are counselling them to reconcile and rebuild their marriage. Irene has forgiven Jack and they are together, spending quality time and going through a process of healing.'
For now, the church has advised Neo 'to put rebuilding his marriage as his top priority'.
Asked what the church was doing to help the couple's four children, who also attend the church, the spokesman said: 'At the appropriate time, when the parents feel a need, we will then speak to their children.'
Although it has been four days since the press first reported Neo's misdemeanour, his family, including his elderly parents, have not heard from him.
