On 20/9, the beauty queen revealed she gave birth at a Ho Chi Minh City hospital a few days prior, waiting until her health stabilized to share the news.
"Skin-to-skin with my baby, I forgot all the pain. Motherhood is truly magical and sacred. I'm so grateful to life for bringing our child to us," she said.

Photographer Tuan Khoi accompanied his wife, offering support and encouragement during the delivery. He was overcome with emotion upon seeing and hearing his baby's first cry.
"Seeing my wife endure labor, overcome everything safely, filled me with admiration and love. There's nothing more wonderful than welcoming our little angel—the most precious gift in the world."
H'Hen Nie is currently recovering in the hospital for a few days before returning home.
The beauty queen first announced her pregnancy almost a year after her May wedding. Initially, H'Hen Nie maintained a busy schedule, continuing her philanthropic work due to her good health. Later in her pregnancy, she limited public appearances, staying home to rest. Her mother traveled from Dak Lak to Ho Chi Minh City to help care for her. The couple also prepared various baby supplies and toys.
The 33-year-old H'Hen Nie was crowned Miss Universe Vietnam in 2017 and placed in the top 5 at Miss Universe 2018. She received the Timeless Beauty award from Missosology in 2019. She served as a coach on the first season of The Next Face Vietnam and as a judge for Miss Universe Vietnam 2022. H'Hen Nie has also ventured into acting, with her debut role as a female action star in 578: Phat dan cua ke dien.
