When Huynh Thi Thu Thuy became the first representative of Vietnam to be crowned Miss International, the achievements of Vietnamese beauty in recent years received attention from the audience.

Among them, Miss Nguyen Phuong Khanh (born in 1995, from Ben Tre ) is the first Vietnamese beauty to be crowned Miss Earth - one of the 6 most prestigious beauty contests in the world.

However, it was not until Nguyen Thuc Thuy Tien made a miracle when winning the Miss Grand International 2021 crown that many people knew about Phuong Khanh's achievements.

In 2018, after being crowned Miss Earth, Phuong Khanh only contacted a few media units and held a small press conference.

After that, she was suspected of cheating to get the crown and some noise with people related to the contest. The beauty once affirmed that she won by her ability: "This is an international contest, only with your own efforts and luck, you can achieve glory."

After that, Miss Phuong Khanh limited her showbiz activities. The beauty found her passion in embroidering wool.

During the two years of the COVID-19 pandemic, she honed her skills and now has enough experience to open her own workshop.

Phuong Khanh also developed her own business with a large fortune. In addition to owning two luxury apartments in Ho Chi Minh City, she has a collection of branded goods and often shares about her daily life on her personal page.

In 2023, Phuong Khanh experienced a health incident and was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism. Sharing about the time she fought the disease, the 9X beauty queen revealed that she was always in a negative state with depression and an eating disorder.

Up to now, Phuong Khanh has somewhat recovered both physically and mentally. She actively participates in volunteer activities to serve the community.

Many years after ending her term as Miss Earth, Phuong Khanh occasionally appears at entertainment events, serving as a judge for a number of competitions such as Miss Tourism Vietnam Global 2021, and a judge for the reality TV show Miss Universe Vietnam 2022...

Talking about rarely appearing in game shows, Phuong Khanh admitted that she has no talent, is gentle, has no entertainment factor and is shy.
