Adult children ‘rescue’ 102-yo father after shocking marriage to caregiver

Adult children ‘rescue’ 102-yo father after shocking marriage to caregiver

2026-02-03

Remember the surprise marriage between a 102-year-old man and his live-in caretaker? Back in January, the nine children of Mr. Wang were shocked to learn of the marriage, when Ms. Lai, their surprise stepmother, barred them from visiting their dad in central Taipei. At the time, the Wangs had applied for guardianship of their elderly father, but before the court had made a decision, Ms. Lai and her employer registered their marriage, which authorities deemed legitimate. Mr. Wang’s children believe that Lai was after their father’s massive fortune and had taken advantage of him. They even accused her of confining him to his home. On Tuesday afternoon, they took the opportunity of a hospital visit to take their father away from the unwanted stepmother. Let’s find out more in our exclusive report.

The man on the wheelchair is Mr. Wang, who’s 102 years old. He’s just visited the doctor accompanied by Ms. Lai, his caregiver—and wife since the beginning of the year. He’s ferried out by a small crowd as soon as he exits. Ms. Lai screams.

Police arrives soon amid the scuffle. The caregiver seems to have sustained injuries and is sent to ER.

Turns out, the small crowd waiting outside the hospital to fetch Mr. Wang is his children and grandchildren. It’s their now or never moment to get the elderly man back under their hood. The Wangs were in for a shock when the youngest son found out in January that the elder Mr. Wang got married to his caregiver of 17 years without their knowledge. They believe Ms. Lai was after their father’s massive fortune, and are now accusing her of confining him in his apartment: the children say Ms. Lai had blocked all forms of contact they could possibly have with their father, from phone calls to physical visits. They even got the police involved last month, but to no avail, which is why they’ve decided to get him in person.

The family finally gets their father onto the car with them. They’re relieved that he’s back in person.

Of course I’m happy, especially since Lunar New Year is coming up. She’s held my father hostage. On the other day, she wouldn’t even open the door, so I filed a report at the Zhongshan Second Police Station for the offense of forcing on her part. How dare she prohibit me from having contact with my own father?

The Wangs are happy that their father could rejoin the family for Lunar New Year. They’re now suing Ms. Lai and seeking to obtain guardianship of their father, which they had applied for before the marriage was registered.

Our colleagues arrived at Mr. Wang’s residence earlier and determined that the conflict between the two parties concerns the right of guardianship. That will be up to the two parties to settle.

The Wangs have decided that physically getting their father back was the only way to see him again. However, the legal battle with the surprise mother-in-law has only just begun.

搶父親大戰獨家曝光! 百歲人瑞娶看護 醫院外爆搶人衝突

2026-02-03

上個月,民視獨家為您報導,有一名102歲的人瑞,疑似被68歲的看護,帶去登記結婚,人瑞的子女全都被蒙在鼓裡,事件又有新進展!因為家屬控訴,這名看護根本不讓人瑞和子女接觸,甚至報警也沒用,懷疑父親遭到軟禁,下午,趁著人瑞出門看醫生,到醫院門口搶人,雙方爆發激烈衝突,帶您來看第一手畫面。

102歲的人瑞王先生,坐在輪椅上,剛看完醫生,被看護推到醫院門口,一群人立刻一擁而上,迅速將人推走,讓看護嚇得大喊。

醫院外爆發搶人衝突,警方緊急趕來,看護疑似受傷,被送進急診。

原來把人瑞帶走的這群人,是他的兒女和孫子們,因為他們不滿68歲台灣籍看護,上個月突然和人瑞父親結婚,家屬全都不知情,懷疑看護覬覦父親的財產,更控訴看護疑似把父親軟禁,遲遲不讓他們和百歲老父親見面,打電話、登門詢問,甚至報警提告通通沒用,只好趁爸爸出來看醫生時,趕緊將父親接走。

家屬們齊心協力,終於將102歲的人瑞送上車,載回家裡,家屬們終於見到好久不見的父親,這才稍稍放下心中的大石。

“心情當然很高興啊,尤其過年到了嘛。(看護)挾持我老爸,那天她不開門,我就去中山二派出所去報案,說她強制罪,她禁止我跟我老爸來往,豈有此理。”

農曆過年前夕,終於將爸爸接回家了,一家人能夠大團圓。不過,這一場百歲人瑞和看護結婚案尚未結束,現在兒女們要尋求法律途徑求助。

[[中山二派出所副所長 詹士賢]]
“經警方到場了解,為家庭監護權發生拉扯,後續將雙方帶返所釐清。”

醫院外上演搶父親大戰,雖然成功搶回爸爸,但看護變成後母的風暴,還在持續延燒。
