Nicole Seah

Nicole Rebecca Seah Xue Ling (Chinese: 佘雪玲; pinyin: Shé Xuělíng; born 17 October 1986) is a Singaporean politician. A former member of the Workers' Party, Seah contested the 2020 general election but lost to the governing People's Action Party (PAP) by a close margin.

Seah rose to prominence as a candidate representing the National Solidarity Party (NSP) in Marine Parade GRC in the 2011 general election. At the age of 24, she was the youngest female candidate standing in the election, and immediately became a target of media attention, which became increasingly pronounced as her speeches began to go viral on YouTube. During the election, her number of social media followers rendered her being described as the second most popular Singaporean politician online after former prime minister Lee Kuan Yew. On 29 August 2014, Seah resigned from the NSP, "to move on and grow in other areas."

In 2020, Seah became a candidate of the Workers' Party (WP) contesting in East Coast GRC in the 2020 general election, and lost by a close margin of 6.78% to the People's Action Party (PAP) team led by Heng Swee Keat.

In July 2023, a video surfaced that allegedly showed Seah holding hands intimately with fellow WP member Leon Perera. On 19 July, WP secretary-general Pritam Singh revealed that Seah and Leon Perera began an affair some time after the 2020 general elections, which had ended before the video surfaced.

On 18 July 2023, WP secretary-general Pritam Singh announced that Seah had resigned from the Workers' Party (WP).
