KUALA LUMPUR: After weeks of silence, Paula Verhoeven, 37, actress and wife of Baim Wong, has spoken out in response to her husband's recent accusations of infidelity.
In an emotional video posted on her Instagram, Paula appeared visibly distressed as she addressed the claims, firmly denying the allegations.
"As a wife, I acknowledge my own shortcomings. However, I want to make it clear that these rumours of infidelity are completely false," she said.
Paula expressed her faith, stating, "I believe that Allah is aware of all my actions. I will account for everything in the afterlife, and I know that truth prevails."
Holding back tears, she added, "This is a challenging time for my children and me. I ask for everyone's prayers."
In a heartfelt message to her sons, Kiano and Kenzo, Paula apologised for the turmoil affecting their family, affirming her unwavering love for them.

The filing was submitted to the South Jakarta Religious Court on Oct 7.
The celebrity couple, who married in 2018, share two young sons, Kiano, 3, and Kenzo, 2, and have been in the spotlight as one of Indonesia's well-known families.
