An officer in the northern province of Ha Nam, Oanh’s hometown, confirmed the news. Oanh’s relatives also attended their family member’s event.

Oanh, 34, admitted to dating businessman Binh, 43, last August, after photos of the couple circulated on social media.

The relationship became controversial when Dao Lan Huong, Binh’s ex-wife, spoke out. According to Huong, she and Binh were still legally married at the time, while Binh said they were in the middle of their divorce process.

Since then, Oanh has been facing accusations of interfering in Binh’s marriage.

Binh announced that he had completed his divorce process with Huong on May 9.

After that, Oanh publicly denied accusations of being a mistress and a factor in Binh’s divorce during an interview with VnExpress on May 11. She also apologized to the public concerning them with her private life.

Oanh is a renowned actress and has starred in several TV series. In 2018, she was nominated for the Vietnamese Golden Kite Award for Best Actress, one of the most prestigious acting awards in the country.

Binh is the founder of various tech startups, including Nexttech Group of Technopreneurs, which has been dubbed the "Alibaba of Vietnam" by the Chinese media. He joined Shark Tank Vietnam as one of the showcased investors in 2019.
