Chi Tai and Phuong Loan used to work together in the Chi Tai Brother's band. There, the late artist was a musician, while his wife was the lead singer. However, their love was opposed by other members of the band, who wanted to separate them. These people asked Chi Tai to choose Phuong Loan or the band. In the end, Chi Tai decided to protect their love and the two got married in 1987 in the US. |

Life gradually changed when Chi Tai started his comedy career. After a short time, especially in the 1990s, Chi Tai's name was loved by many audiences both domestically and overseas. Growing up in a poor family, Chi Tai cherished his work and opportunities, and from then on focused all his time on art. During this period, the couple often lived apart because Chi Tai had to return to Vietnam to perform, while Phuong Loan still lived in the US. |

Despite being together for 33 years, Chi Tai and his wife have no children. The late artist admitted that in his younger years, he was too busy running shows and wanted to have a stable economy before thinking about having children. 'I was so happy with my job that I didn't even think about having children,' he confided. Time passed quickly, and when they were both old and had no children by their side, Chi Tai couldn't help but feel regretful. However, he didn't want to have children at this time because they might not be as healthy as other children. |
