Actress Viet Trinh was one of the most famous silver screen stars of the 90s. She was known as a symbol of Vietnamese beauty at one time.

Viet Trinh started her film career in the 1980s, when she was a student at the University of Theatre and Cinema in Ho Chi Minh City.

However, the actress's name only really shined when she took on the leading role in the film Jade in Stone directed by Tran Canh Don. After that, a series of films such as Goodbye Summer, Wanted Order, Why did you get married so quickly, Cong Tu Bac Lieu... helped her affirm her name.

In 1996, Viet Trinh was at the peak of her career with the TV series "The Beauty of the Western Capital". She received much praise from the audience and experts for her excellent psychological performance in the role of Bach Cuc, modeled after Mrs. Lam Thi Phan - a legendary female spy of the Vietnamese Revolution. After many years, the actress is still nicknamed "The Beauty of the Western Capital" by fans.

With her charming beauty and good acting ability, Viet Trinh quickly became a box office guarantee for movies and a valuable face for brands.

At its peak, Viet Trinh received a salary of 30 taels of gold for a film in the "instant noodle" video format, a type of film that takes only half a month to film, but has an extremely high salary. She even acted in 2-3 films per month. However, when audience tastes changed, this type of film gradually faded away.

Talking about her fame, she shared: "I was so famous that when I performed in Da Nang, the whole market stopped selling near Han market. When I went to Nghe An, the whole stage collapsed."

In 2022, she officially announced her retirement as an actress and director, ending a long journey in the art industry. However, she continues to accept invitations to participate in film production and participate in game shows that suit her work and interests.

Successful in her career, Viet Trinh was not lucky in marriage. After a divorc.e, she became a single mother, living with her son Thien Nhan. To protect her son's privacy, the actress did not let him appear in the media for many years. Whenever she posted pictures or videos of herself or her son, the actress always tried to hide his face and information.

Actress Viet Trinh clearly expressed her pride in her obedient son. She said, "Thien Nhan is a good bo.y and has very good academic achievements. My son growing up, being obedient and studying well is my happiness." In the rare times his mother let him appear in public, it was said that he resembled his mother in many ways, especially his high nose.

The actress said that she and her ex were close friends before getting married. Therefore, they still maintain their friendship and respect for each other after breaking up.

Viet Trinh never spoke ill of her ex-husband to her son, but always portrayed him as a devoted and loving father. That is why her son always sees his father as a great idol.

For Viet Trinh, no matter what, it is an adult matter and has nothing to do with children. She believes that the story between adults may not be beautiful, but the story of children must be beautiful. A son must always love both his mother and father because without parents, there can be children. Viet Trinh affirms that even if the marriage breaks down, his son will always be happy because he has the full love of his parents.

Unlike many parents, Viet Trinh is not in a hurry for her chil.d to learn English so early that she cannot speak Vietnamese. She believes: "English will come to you naturally, like fate, don't force your chil.d to learn". The beauty from Tay Do then also shared her plan to use English to communicate with her chil.d.

As a single mother, Viet Trinh also worries a bit about se.x education for her chil.d. Worried that Thien Nhan would be sensitive and not "strong" if he lived with his mother and sisters, Viet Trinh came up with a very delicate solution. Accordingly, she always asked her 25-year-old nephew to play with her chil.d so that the two siblings could advise each other. If there were any questions, she could ask him. And he would guide Thien Nhan in a strong direction.

Despite her cleverness, the "Tay Do beauty" still got into trouble when she posted a short clip discussing the topic of "hugging and kissing teenage boys" on her personal TikTok channel. Many viewers disagreed, reminding Viet Trinh not to show affection for her chil.d in public because the chil.d is already grown up.

The actress of the movie "The Beauty of the West" confided: "The sisters said that doing so is not good, the son will not grow up strong. Everyone is right, but why am I so addicted to my son? He doesn't like me holding his hand or hugging and kissing him in public. But I like him so much that I always wait for him to hug me. I think I have to change."

In 3,000m2 villa

After announcing her retirement, Viet Trinh turned to business and spent time taking care of herself and her son. Currently, the actress lives with her son in a 3,000m2 garden villa in Binh Duong. However, to her, her son is her most valuable and important asset.

Previously, on her personal page, Viet Trinh posted an article on a website with the title: "Actress Viet Trinh, U55, single, owns a 2 billion car, lives in a 3,000m2 garden villa in Binh Duong".

Responding to netizens' speculation, actress Viet Trinh shared: "I would like to clarify that I am driving a car made in Korea and bought it several years ago. This is a car of love, marking a very important milestone in my life, so I will never change it.

I bought the garden 18 years ago. I'm not that rich now, just enough to live on, eating whatever I can. The clothes I buy are also discounted."

Finally, she affirmed that she has always lived frugally and not wastefully because she was born into a poor family, so she knew how to save from a young ag.e.

In addition, the actress also regularly updates pictures of happy trips to famous places in Vietnam and around the world. Viet Trinh also diligently shares her daily life on her personal TikTok.

During a live broadcast, when the online community expressed regret that Viet Trinh had left the screen, the actress expressed: "I don't act anymore because now is not like our old days. Each era and each ag.e has different thoughts. I can't keep up. So I switched to trading for a peaceful life."

Controversy over fish stock not using caramel

Recently, Viet Trinh answered some viewers' questions about her braised fish but it looked "white". She explained: "I braise fish like soup because I braise peanuts, everyone. I don't like to add caramel to make it a deep red. It burns first and then becomes caramel, it's not good for you to eat. As for soup, I add a little seasoning powder, then add vegetables to eat, but I don't eat the water. If I eat the water, I drink a lot of the seasoning powder, so I don't like it either. That's why I eat soup like I'm cooking pig feed."

Viet Trinh's sharing immediately caused controversy, netizens were divided into two sides expressing their opinions. One side said the female artist was overdoing it, every family in the West eats like that so why don't they see any problem. The other side said she was right, it's best to limit it.
