On the evening of September 21, a social media account specializing in "exposes of artists" DN (with tens of thousands of followers) claimed that Huong Ly was having an affair with the president of Miss Universe Vietnam and was being cleared to be crowned Miss Universe Vietnam next year.

The noise broke out after Mr. Valentin Tran - Chairman of MUV - praised Huong Ly's appearance and called on her to participate in the Miss Universe Vietnam 2025 contest. After that, this account continued to post that Huong Ly was supported to compete in Miss Universe Vietnam 2023 and won the first runner-up prize. The company also affirmed that Huong Ly was "given a designer bag by a married man, part of a million-dollar ring".

Specifically, this DN account wrote: "You hold the copyright, and I'm having an affair with you and am the first runner-up, so I have the right to compete. I don't know if our relationship will last until 2025, that's the problem. And if Huong Ly, born in 1995, wants to compete, she should compete this year. If she falls into the 31-year-old category next year, she might lose both her love and her place in the competition. It's tiring to show off."
