Cat Phuong refused to attend Thai Hoa's mother's funeral, citing reasons related to social status.

Actress Cat Phuong attracted public attention when she posted on her personal page the sad news of her former mother-in-law's death. However, what surprised many was her announcement that she would not be attending the funeral.

According to Cat Phuong, upon receiving the news, her son urged her to quickly prepare to return home to pay her respects to his grandmother. The actress chose to talk to him and explain everything in detail. She shared the verbatim transcript of their conversation: "Forever, I will always be your mother, and your grandmother will always be your grandmother. But I am no longer your grandmother's daughter-in-law, so I cannot be there for your grandmother's funeral. But you must be there to gather all the children and grandchildren for your grandmother's funeral. Hurry back and stand next to your father Hoa, along with your aunt Gấu and your younger brother Nemo, okay son?"

At the end of the post, Cat Phuong stated that because her son is still immature in his thinking, she had to clearly explain to him the correct roles and positions of each person in the family after his parents' divorce. At the same time, the actress also bid farewell to her former mother-in-law with a heartfelt address: "I - Bom's mother - respectfully bid farewell to Bom's grandmother as she goes to the Buddha's gate." Immediately after being posted, the article quickly received much attention and mixed comments from the online community.

Some expressed sympathy for Cat Phuong's clear yet respectful approach, while others argued that this action could easily be misinterpreted during a sensitive time. It is known that the post subsequently disappeared from the actress's personal page.

Cat Phuong and actor Thai Hoa were once a couple who received much attention in the Vietnamese entertainment industry. They married in 2004, but just a week after tying the knot, they unexpectedly announced their divorce, leaving the public stunned. Sharing the reason for the breakup, Cat Phuong stated that they were in love during a period when their careers were unstable and life was under great pressure, while Thai Hoa was a quiet and reserved person, gradually creating a distance that was difficult to bridge.

Years later, looking back on her short-lived marriage, Cat Phuong frankly admitted that she had been too hasty in love. In 2021, the actress shared: "I used to love intensely and live life impulsively. After the divorce, I realized I was wrong. So I advise young people, in this 4.0 era, don't rush into love, thinking you'll figure things out after marriage. After my marriage broke down, I slowed down, thought more carefully about everything I did. I used to be very impulsive."

After his divorce, Thai Hoa found new happiness with his second wife, Ha Huynh Hong Thu, who is 11 years younger than him. His wife was a former student in Australia and holds a master's degree in economics. Unlike his previous marriage, Thai Hoa is quite private about his current family life and rarely shares details with the media.

Although no longer married, Cat Phuong and Thai Hoa maintain a civilized and respectful relationship to co-parent their son, Bom. The actress has repeatedly affirmed that she always receives support from her ex-husband and does not hesitate to mention and appreciate Thai Hoa's successes in front of their son. For his part, Thai Hoa also shared a relaxed approach to child support: "Regarding child support for Bom, Phuong and I are quite relaxed. If we have more money in a month, we provide support; if we don't, we just say so. Phuong doesn't demand anything."
