Sadly, the life of the U70 actress is full of ups and downs and many tragedies. The saying "red beauty is fate" seems to be fate for her.

When I was young I suffered because of my father, when I got old I suffered because of my children

If Phung Bao Bao has an illustrious career, her life and love path are arduous and difficult. Having become famous too early, she faced pressure from public opinion and was always in a state of stress. The beauty suffered from depression when she was just 20 years old. Few people know that Phung Bao Bao tried to end his life twice but failed. "My life is so miserable. Since I was young, I have seen tragedy. Sometimes I thought that I was Nguyen Linh Ngoc reincarnated when life was as dreary as hers. On screen, the audience only saw me as beautiful and talented. , they don't know what I go through behind the camera," she shared in an interview.

All the fees that Phung Bao Bao earned from filming were "roasted" by her father, director Phung Phong, on a silver mat. The pressure of money on Phung Bao Bao's shoulders caused her to suffer from depression and had to undergo treatment for 18 years. Later, when she discovered that Phung Phong was not her biological father, her depression became even more severe.

At the age of 23, Phung Bao Bao suddenly married a young businessman named Chieu Tai Cuong. This information surprised many fans and colleagues of Phung Bao Bao. The marriage of Phung Bao Bao and Chieu Tai Cuong lasted about 10 years. However, in his autobiography, Phung Bao Bao shared that this happy marriage only lasted a year.

Phung Bao Bao discovered that her husband was heavily in debt and extremely greedy and mean. After 10 years of being husband and wife and having 2 children together, Phung Bao Bao still decided to ask for a divorce. Phung Bao Bao fought tirelessly to gain custody of his son, but Chieu Tai Cuong used the excuse that she was mentally ill (once in the hospital for depression) to win her son. "People say I'm crazy, I don't blame anyone. With no husband or children by my side, after the divorce I thought I would end it all here and go to another world," she choked up.

To keep his wife away from their children, after the divorce, Chieu Tai Cuong immediately took the children to Malaysia. After the divorce, Phung Bao Bao fell into crisis, with no money and no children. At this time, she had to stay at a friend's house and thought about ending her life.

After regaining his spirit, Phung Bao Bao began to return to his acting career and often flew back and forth between Hong Kong and Malaysia to visit his children. After 13 years of living alone, Phung Bao Bao got married to a Malaysian architect - Mr. Thieu Tuyen.

When appearing on television, at the age of 70, Phung Bao Bao cried very quickly. "Miss Tay Thi" confided every year: "I suffered from long-term depression and illness for many years, so I almost lived with medicine. Therefore, I get emotional and cry easily." Currently, Phung Bao Bao is living with his eldest son, Chieu Khai Tong, in Hong Kong.

When Chieu Khai Tong was determined to become a director, Phung Bao Bao spent all his money to help and support his son. Many times Chieu Khai Tong's work failed, Phung Bao Bao had to run around and worry, asking the actors for help. Although Phung Bao Bao's relationship with his youngest son was devoted to his children, the relationship was not good. When Phung Bao Bao divorced, his youngest son Chieu Khai Chinh was still quite young.

That's why, when Chieu Khai Chinh grew up, he always thought that his mother had left him, so he hated her very much. "The eldest son is filial but often works far away. I'm sick at home, and even if I want to go to the bathroom, there's no one to help me. Life is long, happiness is gone in the blink of an eye, I just comfort him. The audience still remembers me through my old roles," the beauty once confided. In her autobiography, Phung Bao Bao shared her whole life "when she was young, she suffered because of her father, when she got old, she suffered because of her children". But she never once resented them.
