Rumors have it that comedian Kieu Oanh left her husband because of a new love. While working together with comedian and singer Le Huynh , she felt in love with him. She was struggling between the relationship with her husband and a new found love. Kieu Oanh married her husband, Lam Quoc Dung not long ago in July of 2005, and it’s been nearly 3 years later. Besides Kieu Oanh, a few others artists in Vietnamese entertainment have had rumors about a separation but mainly because of a new found fame. However, it’s a first to hear that the reason is not because of fame or simple using the guy as a way to get into America.

“The Americans have broken their promise. They have left us." “Inspired by the true stories of Vietnamese refugees who fled their land after the fall of Saigon—and those who were forced to stay behind, Journey From The Fall follows one family’s struggle for freedom. April 30, 1975 marked the end of Vietnam's two-decade-old civil war and the start of the exodus of hundreds of thousands of refugees. Despite his allegiance to the toppled South Vietnamese government, Long Nguyen (as Long Nguyen) decides to remain in Vietnam.

His wife Mai (Diem Lien), son Lai (Nguyen Thai Nguyen) and mother Ba Noi (Kieu Chinh) then embark on the arduous ocean voyage in the hope of reaching the U.S. and freedom. Back in Vietnam, Long suffers years of solitary confinement and hard labor, and finally despairs that his family has perished. But news of their successful resettlement in Americ...
