Phnom Penh - A Cambodian wedding was thrown into chaos when the groom's wife and 17-month-old son stumbled across him and a new spouse greeting guests outside their reception party, local media and restaurant staff said Monday. Local daily Rasmei Kampuchea reported Soung Soh Leap, 30, and her son believed Lam Davuth, 38, was away on business and were going to market when they happened by a restaurant and saw him with a new bride welcoming guests.
A receptionist at Sorya Restaurant confirmed the story.
"The first wife screamed a lot ... but after he talked quietly to the other bride, the new one seemed okay," the receptionist, who declined to be named, said by telephone.
Police said they declined Soh Leap's requests to intervene as it was a domestic matter and the wedding eventually went on.
Adultery and bigamy are criminal offenses punishable by jail in Cambodia, but Soh Leap would need to make a formal complaint to the court before action could be taken, police said.
