Vietnamese Actress Việt Trinh Says She Wants Simple, Peaceful Life After Depression Struggle

Vietnamese film star Việt Trinh, now over 55, posted on her social media on July 24 expressing a wish for a calm daily routine – “just to live peacefully, eat three light meals a day.” She reflected on a long battle with severe depression, noting that maintaining exercise, a balanced diet, early sleep, time in nature and prescribed medication helped her regain energy and a smile.

Trinh, a single mother, recalled her rise to fame in the 1990s with roles in Ngọc trong đá, Lệnh truy nã and the iconic Bạch Cúc in Người đẹp Tây Đô. After a period away from the spotlight, she directed a series before formally retiring in 2022 to enjoy a quieter life.
