Although she also pursues an artistic career like her husband, Tuyet Van is quite private. She rarely shares about her private life and married life. Her personal page has few posts and most of them are in friends mode.

Meanwhile, Cong Ninh has kept his love life private for many years. The actor wants to protect his wife and family from public scrutiny and gossip.

Meritorious Artist Cong Ninh commented that his wife Tuyet Van is a lovely, calm and discreet person. That is what made the actor want to get to know her from the first meeting. Tuyet Van shared that she likes men who make her feel safe. Cong Ninh not only makes her feel secure but also brings humor.

Due to the large age gap, the actor and his wife often argued. The actor said he married his wife when she was 28 years old - a young and innocent age in a girl's life. Both husband and wife anticipated the difficulties when entering married life. Everything: from perception, aesthetics, daily life, to surrounding relationships... all had big differences.

However, both gradually put aside their egos to keep the fire of happiness burning over time. Cong Ninh always tries to be patient and moderate so that everything can be resolved smoothly. Oscar - the male artist's 9-year-old daughter is like a string, connecting the two more after the storms.

“I think life would be miserable if we kept controlling and binding each other. Instead, we created our own private space and respected each other’s relationships. Luckily, my husband and I both share the same philosophy of living,” Cong Ninh once shared with VietNamNet.

Getting married and having children at an old age is a great joy for Cong Ninh. He sees this as a new turning point with many joys, but at the same time, there is also a great worry about "making ends meet".

Cong Ninh said he cherishes the remaining time of his life. He compares himself to “racing against time” to take care of and educate his children, hoping that they will soon grow up. The male artist’s wish is to save enough money for his family. When his responsibilities to his wife and children are completed, he will proactively apply to move to a nursing home.
