For the celebration’s conclusion, Huyen opted for a shorter dress, which gracefully showcased her expectant figure. Crafted from superior satin, this dress was designed with removable puff sleeves, a structured bust, and a pleated lower section.

At 27, Hai has been recognized for his sportsmanship, having secured a gold medal at the SEA Games 2019 and emerged victorious in the 2018 AFF Cup along with his teammates on the national team. He also played a pivotal role in Vietnam’s commendable efforts during the 2022 World Cup qualifiers.

Alongside the national team, he completed two matches against Indonesia on March 21 and 26, which were part of the qualifying rounds for the 2026 World Cup.

At 24, Huyen has established herself as a prominent digital influencer and entrepreneur, amassing over 628,000 followers on TikTok.

Since they started dating in 2021, the couple has chosen to keep a low profile online, seldom sharing glimpses of their private lives.

Hai has previously expressed in an interview his belief that marriage would herald positive shifts in his football career.
