Thuy Tien: ‘I don’t ask Dan Truong to support my children’

Since announcing her divorce in July, she talked about her breakup and life as a single mother in the US.

– How is your life going?

– My daily routine with my son – Thien Tu – was not disturbed much, because in the past, mother and daughter were used to rarely having Truong’s presence next to them. I still work in the bakery business, real estate, take care of Thien Tu like before. On weekends or having free time, my mother and I often go on short trips to change the atmosphere. Children learn many new things from life and people where they come from.

It is not true if I say I am not sad when I decide to part with Mr. Dan Truong after eight years together. However, I am the type to think positively in all circumstances. Moreover, I also have a young son beside me as a great spiritual support.

Looking back at my past marriage, I think the geographical distance and time make Truong and me more and more distant from each other. Up until now, I have always been open with my family in everything and divorce is an important matter, so I do not hide this from my relatives. They couldn’t help but be sad but respect the decision of both.

– What makes you stronger as you go through the ups and downs of your marriage?

– My son helps me to be strong and energetic enough to overcome the event. I don’t want her to see her mother living in sadness, more or less affecting the child’s psychology and development.

I make fun of myself by working and playing with Thien Tu. Up until now, I rarely share my sadness with anyone because I don’t want people to be affected by my private feelings.

I am a carefree person, so since Thien Tu, I have created for my son a company specializing in children’s fashion, cosmetics, perfumery and a bakery launched in June in the US. In addition, I also set up some investment funds for children. I want to create solid stepping stones so that in the future, the child has a fulcrum, strives for himself, and creates a future for himself.

– How do you and your ex-husband maintain your relationship?

– After the divorce, the two still keep their relationship and treat each other like good friends. On the right occasion, we can still meet and take Thien Tu for a walk and eat.

Truong’s time with ups and downs, many joys and sorrows. Although incomplete, I am still grateful for what has passed because thanks to that, I was able to become a mother and have the most precious thing, baby Thien Tu.

– How do singers Dan Truong and her take care of their children?

– Since Thien Tu until now, I have never asked or mentioned to Truong about child rearing. Partly because I am confident enough that I can take care of my baby. Part of me thinks that taking care of children is not only a responsibility but also a parent’s love and duty. I let him be comfortable and up to his own ability.

– Being a single mother, what makes you sad?

– Those were the times when Thien Tu was sick. My child is independent and knows how to take care of himself so I don’t have to work hard. However, because of that, I feel heartbroken because Thien Tu is still a boy who, in many situations, still needs the full attention and care of his parents.

At the moment, I have no thoughts about privacy or intend to explore a new relationship. The most important thing for me right now is still taking care of my son. I am trying every day to be able to create a good life for mother and daughter.
