Actress Dong Jie for the first time recalled the controversy surrounding her marriage and divorce with actor Phan Viet Minh.
According to her sharing, the actions and statements during that period stemmed from "impulse and lack of maturity". The actress said that looking back, she realized that many decisions at that time had caused great consequences for both sides.
In 2012, Dong Jie's office suddenly issued a notice confirming her divorce from Phan Viet Minh. This notice also put forward many accusations against the male actor, including allegations that he had gambling habits and was in debt.
This information quickly spread on social networks and made Phan Viet Minh the focus of criticism. At that time, the actor's career was said to be significantly affected when many projects were stalled.
After that, Phan Viet Minh sued Dong Jie's representative in court because he believed that the above information was slanderous. According to the trial results reported by Chinese media at that time, the court determined that Dong Jie's side had acts of slander, and at the same time requested compensation for damages to the male actor's honor.
Not long after the divorce announcement was announced, Chinese media also posted a video recording Dong Jie intimately with actor Wang Dazhi. The recording time of this video is said to have occurred before the official divorce information was announced, causing much debate in public opinion.
After the above scandals, both actors went through a difficult period in their careers. In an interview, Dong Jie said that period was a particularly stressful time for her.
The actress also revealed that after the divorce, for many years she limited her son - nicknamed Dinh Dinh - from meeting his father. Only when the boy was about 14 years old did the relationship between the two fathers and sons gradually improve.
Currently, Dong Khiet said she focuses on taking care of her family and developing her personal career. Meanwhile, Phan Viet Minh continues to operate in the field of acting and made his mark through many TV series such as White Night Hunt or the series adapted from the novel The Devil Blows the Lamp.
After Dong Jie's sharing, Phan Viet Minh also posted a short status on social networks with the content: "Must be so realistic?". The post quickly attracted the attention of fans.
Chinese media reported that in 2025, Phan Viet Minh married female musician Doan Thu Di after a long period of secret dating.
Currently, both artists have their own lives. Public opinion believes that after many years, past controversies have somewhat subsided as both focus on work and personal life.
