The relationship between Nicholas Tse and Faye Wong has always been considered one of the special love stories of Chinese showbiz for many years.
The two artists are not married, have no children together and almost do not interfere in each other's private lives. But when talking about the two children with Truong Ba Chi's ex-wife, Ta Dinh Phong shows a completely different attitude.
After divorcing Truong Ba Chi, the singer and actor once faced questions about child custody. He does not compete, but that does not mean abandoning the role of a father.
Nicholas Tse still spends time with his two sons, taking advantage of returning to Hong Kong (China) when possible and participating in important moments in their lives.
The actor once shared the view that money can buy toys but cannot buy back childhood. The way he maintains relationships with his children also shows that Nicholas Tse considers the presence of a father as irreplaceable.
A detail that once caught the attention of fans was Ta Dinh Phong wearing a t-shirt with a drawing made by his son when appearing at performances. For someone who is inherently secretive about his private life, this action shows that he is not afraid to show pride in his children in front of the public.
Ta Dinh Phong's way of facing family affection may partly stem from childhood experiences. His parents, Ta Hien and Dich Ba Lap, divorced when he was young.
Witnessing family breakdown makes him understand the feeling of lack of family affection. Therefore, even though he does not live with his children, he still tries to make them feel their father's love.
Meanwhile, his love with his current girlfriend - singer and actress Wang Fei - is placed in a different space by Nicholas Tse. The two chose to maintain their relationship in their own way, not using marriage or children to tie each other.
Vuong Phi also does not prevent Ta Dinh Phong from spending time with his children. Both seem to understand that love between two adults can exist without possessing.
It is noteworthy that Nicholas Tse does not put love and affection on the scale to choose. With Faye Wong, he maintains the privacy and freedom of a romantic relationship. With his children, he maintains the responsibility and presence of a father.
Actress Truong Ba Chi also plays an important role in how her children perceive their father. Although directly raising her children for many years, she still tells her children that her father loves them, helping the two boys not grow up feeling abandoned after their parents separated.
After many years, the love story of Nicholas Tse and Faye Wong continues to be of public interest. However, for Nicholas Tse, loving someone and being a father are two different roles. He can keep love with respect and freedom, but for his children, what he chooses is to stay with responsibility and presence.
