Male model Vu Hoang Viet used to be a name that attracted a lot of attention in the Vietnamese entertainment industry not only because of his outstanding appearance but also because of his special love story with an overseas Vietnamese businesswoman who is 32 years older than him.

This love story has become a hot topic of discussion in public opinion for many years, because of the large age difference and doubts surrounding the motive of the relationship. After many years have passed since the breakup, the male model's life has also changed notably.

Vu Hoang Viet was born in 1989, studied at the University of Theater and Cinema in Ho Chi Minh City and owns an outstanding height of 1.87 m. He entered the entertainment industry as a model and quickly gained attention when he entered the top 10 of the Vietnam Supermodel contest in 2010. After that, he continued to impress when he reached the top 5 Vietnamese Supermodels in 2011. However, what makes Vu Hoang Viet's name really widely mentioned is not his artistic activities but his controversial romantic relationship with overseas Vietnamese American businesswoman Yvonne Thuy Hoang.

In 2012, Vu Hoang Viet suddenly publicized his love affair with Ms. Yvonne Thuy Hoang, who was 32 years older than him. This information immediately caused a stir in public opinion. The age gap is so large that many people are skeptical about the sincerity of the relationship, and there are even many opinions that the male model loves for money. However, despite the gossip, the couple is still comfortable sharing many emotional images together and often traveling to many places around the world together.

During the time they were together, Vu Hoang Viet and his older girlfriend used to appear together at many events and were not afraid to show their affection in public. The male model has also repeatedly affirmed that his feelings are sincere, not as speculated. He once shared that his relationship with the businesswoman was his first love, and admitted that it was difficult to avoid public talk when their love story was different from usual.

The love affair lasted about 5 years. During that time, Vu Hoang Viet is said to have proposed to his girlfriend twice but was unsuccessful. However, the two continued to be together for a while before deciding to stop. In 2017, the male model officially confirmed his breakup with the businesswoman over 32 years old, closing the love affair that had attracted a lot of attention in Vietnamese showbiz.

According to Vu Hoang Viet, the reason for ending the relationship is said to come from differences in future orientation. The businesswoman wished him to get married soon and have children, while the male model himself was not ready for married life at that time. Differences in life plans made the two decide to break up after many years together.

After everyone went their separate ways, Vu Hoang Viet gradually withdrew from activities in the entertainment industry. Instead of continuing to pursue the path of modeling, he turned to business, especially real estate. According to the male model's sharing, it was the time spent with his businessman girlfriend that helped him learn a lot of experience in business. That knowledge later became the foundation for him to start his own entrepreneurial path.

After many years of focusing on business, Vu Hoang Viet's life has changed a lot. He said that he had built his own property, bought a house and a car with his own efforts. Although he no longer appears much in entertainment activities, the male model still attracts the attention of the public every time he shares about his personal life on social networks.

In a number of conversations with the media, Vu Hoang Viet once frankly looked back at his controversial love affair. He thinks that the objections from the public are understandable because his love story at that time was quite special. The male model also once said that perhaps not many people dare to fall in love the way he has experienced. However, he affirmed that he was much more mature after that first love.

Around 2019, Vu Hoang Viet began to share about a new relationship. He said that he had found a girlfriend and often posted pictures of her on social networks, but always cleverly kept his lover's identity and face private. The male model once said that he was attracted to his girlfriend's beautiful appearance, and at the same time rated her as sophisticated, deep and caring about others.

After the events in his previous love story, Vu Hoang Viet seems to choose a more private life. He rarely appears in front of the media, mainly focusing on his business and personal life. According to some shares, his income from the real estate business can reach several hundred million VND per month. This is considered the result of many years of effort after leaving the spotlight.

Although he was once associated with many prejudices when publicizing his relationship with an elderly businesswoman, Vu Hoang Viet has repeatedly affirmed that what he has now is the result of personal efforts. He thinks that he does not rely on anyone and always strives to prove his abilities in business.

More than a decade since the attention-grabbing love story with an overseas Vietnamese female billionaire was made public, the name Vu Hoang Viet is still occasionally mentioned whenever the public discusses special relationships in Vietnamese showbiz. However, instead of controversies as before, the public is now mainly interested in life after the glory of the male model.

From a model face that was once noticed on the fashion runway, Vu Hoang Viet has turned to the business path and built a relatively stable personal life. His story, from his controversial love affair to his career journey after leaving showbiz, is still often recalled as a special mark in the Vietnamese entertainment industry for many years.
