The singer is very private and rarely shares her personal life or family photos with the media or on social media. As a result, there have been numerous rumors about her allegedly divorcing her billionaire husband.

Ha Phuong, the singer.
Recently, Thuy Uyen, Ha Phuong’s mentor in the US, shared the singer’s love story with billionaire Chinh Chu during a conversation with MC Khanh Hoang. Thuy Uyen revealed that Chinh Chu and Ha Phuong serendipitously met while dining out, and the Vietnamese-American billionaire pursued the singer.
“Ha Phuong and Chinh Chu were truly meant to be. They coincidentally met while dining out, and Chinh Chu took the initiative to approach, chat, and get to know Ha Phuong. Afterward, Chinh Chu asked for my phone number. Later, he called and asked if he could visit me and Ha Phuong. I agreed. When Ha Phuong came to Minh Tuyet’s house, Chinh Chu came to visit. At that time, they considered each other friends, with no romantic involvement,” Thuy Uyen disclosed.
Subsequently, Thuy Uyen and Ha Phuong traveled to Las Vegas and encountered Chinh Chu again. By this time, the overseas Vietnamese billionaire had developed an interest in the singer, and Ha Phuong had several other suitors, all successful and financially stable men, but she refused them.
“Ha Phuong is shy and always stayed behind me when we went out. But fate brought Ha Phuong and Chinh Chu together, and after a few conversations, they developed a connection and mutual feelings. They sought my permission. That evening, my granddaughter and I went to bed, and Ha Phuong even praised Chinh Chu, saying he was funny. I thought they must be compatible,” shared Thuy Uyen.

Thuy Uyen added that at the time, neither she nor Ha Phuong knew that Chinh Chu was a billionaire. He dressed modestly and did not flaunt his wealth or properties.
“When we first met, neither I nor Ha Phuong knew that Chinh Chu was a billionaire. We admired his personality and attitude; he was so adorable and down-to-earth. When I and Ha Phuong visited New York, Chinh Chu picked us up wearing jeans and a t-shirt, very casual. He didn’t show off his houses or villas; he accommodated us in an ordinary house in New York. Although it was an ordinary house, it was probably worth $3 million. I then realized that Chinh Chu was well-off, stable, and financially secure, and I trusted him to be with Ha Phuong,” she said.
Later, when Thuy Uyen inquired and asked around, she discovered that Chinh Chu was, indeed, a billionaire. She recounted: “It wasn’t until after the wedding that Ha Phuong returned to Chinh Chu’s house and exclaimed, ‘Oh my goodness, I couldn’t have imagined.’ Ha Phuong had no idea that Chinh Chu was a billionaire. I assured Ha Phuong that, based on my intuition, her husband is an honest and humble person.”
And Thuy Uyen’s intuition two decades ago was correct. Even today, the relationship between singer Ha Phuong and billionaire Chinh Chu remains as sweet and happy as it was in the beginning.
Sweet moments of singer Ha Phuong and her billionaire husband.
The “Hoa Cau Vuon Trau” singer is deeply cherished by her billionaire husband. He spares no expense in gifting his wife luxurious designer items, to the extent that her room is filled with luxury goods with no more space left. On another occasion, when Ha Phuong jokingly mentioned building a banquet hall, he constructed a French-style banquet hall/conference room with a stage for her.
Moreover, billionaire Chinh Chu secretly built an opera house within their home as a gift for his wife. Ha Phuong was unaware of this until a friend shared and took her to visit the opera house within their compound.
However, singer Ha Phuong confessed that being the wife of a billionaire is not without challenges. The couple has faced numerous unfounded rumors. The singer shared that there were times when she was rumored to have taken her own life after marital problems, and other times, it was alleged that she had been “disgraced” and given VND 20,000 billion (approximately USD 843 million) after a divorce to return to Vietnam.
When asked about the secret to maintaining a happy marriage, Ha Phuong confided: “Almost every girl dreams of marrying a smart and talented man. A talented general will have many beautiful women around him. I always remember my aunt’s teaching: ‘Marrying is like going to war; you must have a strategy.’ My strategy is to be true to myself while being wise. In a marriage, it’s important to know when to yield and when to concede. As a family psychology expert once said, ‘Yield once to gain twice. You must choose the right moment.’“
