Hell hath no fury...

A sweet-natured socialite shocked onlookers at an event when she suddenly lost her cool. The object of her wrath – a flirtatious social climber coming on to a married male friend of hers. The other woman was left almost in tears by the time the society princess sent her dashing for the door by firing carefully chosen words that truly showcased her contempt for adultresses.

All grown up

When the daughter of a prominent society couple returned to Malaysia after years abroad, her transformation from ugly duckling to a sophisticated swan generated a buzz. Rivals are whispering that she must have had work done to prompt such a change, but it doesn’t stop the men from trying to court her.

Engaged, at last

After a decade of dating men twice her age, a high profile social star has finally found her happily-ever-after. Following a string of bad boys she was usually seen with, we don’t blame her for being so happy now that she’s got a ring on her finger by a man who loves her.
