The love story of newly crowned Miss Ý Nhi and her boyfriend Nguyễn Anh Kiệt (born 2002) has captured a lot of attention. This is the first time a beauty queen openly shares her relationship and personal life with the public right after winning the crown.
While many have sent congratulations and support, Ý Nhi and her boyfriend have also faced some mixed reactions. Notably, in a recent interview, Ý Nhi sparked controversy by saying she has grown beyond where she was before, so her boyfriend needs to change to keep up with her.
“I’m now in a new position, a big leap compared to who I was 2-3 months ago. Of course, my boyfriend has to change quickly and improve to keep up with me. But I still want him to stay innocent, carefree, and true to his age. I don’t want to force him to change completely because of me,” Ý Nhi explained.

Following this, Anh Kiệt took down all posts on his personal page, sparking rumors online that Ý Nhi’s words hurt him. After being mentioned repeatedly on forums, he finally spoke up to defend his girlfriend.
He emphasized that their relationship has lasted a long time, so they understand and support each other deeply. Anh Kiệt also said he wasn’t affected by his girlfriend’s comments. “What people saw was just a part of the interview. We don’t just have a new relationship, there’s understanding and empathy between us. I have no negative thoughts. I hope everyone views this objectively and continues to support Nhi,” he wrote on his personal page.

Anh Kiệt’s public defense of Ý Nhi earned praise from fans. This reassured many supporters who hope the couple can keep their love strong while pursuing their individual careers.
Some comments from the online community:
– “Wish I had a boyfriend like Kiệt, always standing up for his girl when needed.”
– “Wishing you both happiness and strength to get through this challenge.”
– “Admire your love, keep it up!”
– “Love how you both talk about each other with respect, honesty, and affection.”
