Actress Zoe Tay plays a housewife who goes around flaunting her wealth. But when her husband, a lawyer, goes bankrupt and dies, she finds herself becoming a single parent and adjusting to a simpler life.
Tay, who is married to air force pilot Philip Chionh in real life, said in a recent Straits Times interview: "I think single mothers are very brave and probably have a difficult life.
"My husband is the one making the major decisions in our family and taking care of all of us. To hold up the entire family by yourself must be really tough."
The series is on Channel 8 on weekdays at 9pm, and on meWatch. Other cast members include Kym Ng, Hong Ling, Pierre Png and Benjamin Tan.

This day in 1972, the Post Office Savings Bank (POSB) adopted a new logo consisting of a key formed by its initials.
The design was by graphic designer William Lee, who has done many series of Singapore stamps, and POSB is still using a simplified version of the logo today.
The bank has over the years enlisted the help of Smiley the squirrel to encourage kids to save.
There is a POSB Parents Facebook group to help parents learn to plan finances for the family and teach kids money management. It also offers parenting hacks. For example, the group has started a three-part series called The ABCs Of Home-Based Learning, in collaboration with Flying Cape, an online booking and advisory platform for tuition and enrichment classes here. The first episode ran last Thursday. The second is on Thursday and the third on April 23, from 8 to 8.30pm.
