The lesser-known "other half" of People's Artist Thu Hien and People's Artist Trung Duc
Few people know that People's Artist Thu Hien's husband was a heroic pilot who shot down 6 enemy planes, and that People's Artist Trung Duc's wife possesses the beauty of an actress.
People's Artist Thu Hien and People's Artist Trung Duc are a legendary singing duo of revolutionary music. Both have left many memorable marks in their careers and enjoy a fulfilling married life.
However, People's Artist Trung Đức and People's Artist Thu Hiền are quite private about their personal lives, so few people know about their significant others – the strong support systems that have contributed to their success.
People's Artist Thu Hien's husband is a heroic pilot.
People's Artist Thu Hien's husband is Hero of the Armed Forces Vu Ngoc Dinh. Mr. Vu Ngoc Dinh was a wartime pilot hero with the achievement of shooting down 6 American planes in 1970. He is 12 years older than the actress.
Despite being a famous figure, People's Artist Thu Hien maintains a private and discreet life. In a rare interview with the press about her partner, People's Artist Thu Hien shared that she loves and is devoted to her husband because of his simple lifestyle, his understanding, and his willingness to share. Beyond their marital relationship, they also share a bond of camaraderie, friendship, and camaraderie as fellow soldiers.
Recalling the years they lived apart, artist Thu Hien said:"In our time, the only way to communicate was through letters. And in letters, once you were married, how could you write about love affairs, especially since I often sang songs about people, love for my homeland, and country... I couldn't express all my feelings in words, but through the songs and melodies I performed."
Artist Thu Hien said she was fortunate to have her husband's respect and support in her work. She confided:My husband is 12 years older than me and is now retired, so he stays at home. Because of that, he's very understanding. When I'm performing, there's someone to take care of him at home. When I come home, my husband and I talk to each other."
Currently, she and her husband live in an apartment in Ho Chi Minh City. Their children don't live with them, but they still visit and take care of their parents regularly. Occasionally, the whole family goes together to do charity work, helping and sharing with those less fortunate.
"I enjoy doing charity work, within my means. Every time I perform, I set aside a little money to help those less fortunate than myself. My two daughters and I pooled our money to build a house for the needy in the Mekong Delta... The amount isn't large compared to many people, but it's the effort of the three of us."People's Artist Thu Hien shared this with VTC News.
At 72 years old, People's Artist Thu Hien still performs, but not very frequently due to health reasons, mainly to ease her longing for the profession. Besides performing, People's Artist Thu Hien also dedicates much of her time to teaching vocal music. She hopes to pass on her experience and passion for the profession to future generations.
Sharing about her current life, People's Artist Thu Hien said she is very satisfied and has nothing left to worry about:"At my age, most people are resting, but I rest within reasonable limits. I want to be active and work. I still sing and teach singing, passing on my experience and energy to the younger generation. I think life is simply about living meaningful things."
People's Artist Trung Đức's wife is as beautiful as an actress.
People's Artist Trung Đức's wife is named Phạm Phương, and she lives on Mã Mây Street in Hanoi. She possesses a beauty comparable to that of an actress. Despite being in her twilight years, People's Artist Trung Đức's wife still impresses with her beautiful, youthful, and captivating appearance.
The two met, initially as friends, then developed feelings for each other and fell in love. His wife was a very capable woman, taking meticulous care of her husband and children, so he felt very secure going to perform in distant provinces.
Throughout their years together, Trung Duc's wife has helped him overcome many life challenges, including two instances when he was seriously ill. His wife and daughter took turns caring for him when he fell from his bed while sleeping, an injury that still leaves him with lasting effects.
People's Artist Trung Đức said he was fortunate to marry a beautiful and skillful wife. They have four children, three sons and one daughter. His wife is the "keeper of the keys," taking care of the entire family and handling both domestic and external affairs.
The wife of People's Artist Trung Đức said that her husband dotes on her. He tries his best to buy her whatever gift she likes. Among them, the gift she likes most is the motorbike he recently gave her:"I just need to ask him to buy a motorbike and he'll immediately pay for it, or he'll agree to buy anything else; in general, he's very indulgent towards me."At over 70 years old, the male artist is hesitant to say sweet words, but he never forgets to buy flowers and gifts on his significant other's anniversaries and birthdays.
In particular, People's Artist Trung Đức still maintains the habit of always running to give money to his wife whenever he returns home."Often, after performing or working, he'd rush home, take off his shoes, and say, 'Here's the money, wife,' even giving me his performance fee, but I'm sure he still had some secret stash.", revealed the wife of People's Artist Trung Đức.
Although her husband is admired by many, his wife always trusts him and never gets jealous. Therefore, the male artist can confidently perform far from home and pursue his music career.
In their daily lives, People's Artist Trung Đức and his wife almost never have conflicts or loud arguments because he always gives in to his wife or ignores her complaints or expressions of displeasure.
Currently, he and his wife live with their daughter and grandchildren on Nguyen Chi Thanh Street (Hanoi). When he's not performing in the provinces, he stays home playing with his grandchildren, chatting with his wife, and reading books. At 72 years old, he still wakes up at 4 am every day, has breakfast and coffee with friends at 6 am, and practices his vocals regularly.
I still practice my vocals regularly, for more than 30 minutes every day, and I don't get tired. My voice is good now; I can hit high notes perfectly, and my friends are always surprised when they hear me sing. I think I sing better than I did when I was younger...""People's Artist Trung Đức said."
