Khanh Thi and Phan Hien are known as a well-off family in the Vietnamese entertainment industry. Particularly, Phan Hien comes from a wealthy family in Ho Chi Minh City, with a successful real estate business. They are rumored to own numerous high-rise buildings across the city.
Khanh Thi has expressed her gratitude for having supportive in-laws: “I am fortunate to have in-laws who provide both material and emotional support, as well as a husband who loves me dearly. This allows me to focus on my career.”

Since their marriage, Khanh Thi has taken on the role of her husband’s coach and supporter. The couple has achieved remarkable success in their respective careers, with both of them consistently winning top prizes in domestic and international competitions.

At the 31st SEA Games, Khanh Thi accompanied Phan Hien as his coach, and he won a gold medal. In September 2024, Phan Hien and his dance partner, Thu Huong, ranked 10th at the WDSF World Open Latin 2024. This achievement propelled them to 41st in the world rankings, the highest ever for a Vietnamese dance sports couple. They also became the first Vietnamese athletes to be recognized as one-star world-class athletes.

Khanh Thi, on the other hand, is the Dean of Culture and Arts (under the University of Economics and Finance in Ho Chi Minh City) and serves as a judge in both national and international dance sports competitions.
The couple’s eldest son, Kubi Minh Cuong, has followed in his parents’ footsteps and achieved remarkable success at a young age. At just 9 years old, he has already won two world championship titles in the Under-12 category at the Syllabus World Championship in 2023 and 2024. He has also consistently won medals in various dance sports competitions, both domestically and internationally.

Recently, Khanh Thi shared her mixed emotions about her son’s achievements: “I don’t want my son to know that he is a world champion and is being praised by the whole country. I’m afraid that this might spoil him.
However, when I see non-celebrity families proudly showing off their children’s achievements, I feel a bit envious because they have every right to do so. But as public figures, my husband and I have to hold back our emotions, which sometimes feels unfair to our son.”
Khanh Thi is proud of her son’s achievements but worries about potential negative effects.
In addition to Kubi, the couple’s two daughters, Anna and Lisa, are also expected to follow in their parents’ footsteps. Anna, at the age of six, has already started learning and practicing dance sports with her older brother.
After more than 16 years together and nearly two years of marriage, Khanh Thi and Phan Hien’s family continues to thrive. Their happiness was further multiplied with the arrival of their third child, Lisa, in 2023.
