Since becoming a new father, Singaporean actor Desmond Tan says he has been awash with emotions he has never experienced before.
He is starring in the series Moments, which premieres on April 9 on Channel 8 at 9pm and is also available on mewatch. In the drama, his character is tasked to run a detective agency with his deceased colleague’s daughter . After a mysterious incident while investigating a case, he gains the ability to foresee the future, while she can see into people’s past.
He adds: “My wife is breastfeeding, so there’s not much I can help with, but I’m the king of burping the baby. It’s my special talent, I’m pretty good at it. When she is in my arms, she burps well.”“The nanny was asking, ‘Who changed her diaper just now?’ I thought she was going to praise me for a job well done, but actually, I put it on wrongly.”
Hoshi, a 14-year-old cocker spaniel, took to his role of big brother well. While recovering from ill health before Tan’s daughter was born, Hoshi chose a spot in the nursery to rest in. “I got a dose of drive from my daughter’s birth. I want to push myself harder and work harder, but I also want to learn to prioritise and manage my time more efficiently so I can draw a balance between my family and career.”
