Biography
Madame Ngô Thị Phương Ly[note 1] was born in 1960 in Hanoi. She is the third child of People's Artist animation director Ngô Mạnh Lân and actress Phan Thị Ngọc Lan.[1][2]
Because Madame Ly belongs to a family with a reputation in the artist world, from the beginning, she and the three siblings were directed by her father for the art path. While eldest sister Ngô Thị Phương Lan soon became the director of the Vietnam Film Department, Madame Ly studied to become a professional painter. However, in the end, she did not continue to compose paintings but became a host of Vietnam Television.
Madame Ly has ever been the Head of the Culture and Arts Department of Vietnam Television.[3] She was one of the developers of talkshow Người xây tổ ấm (Who build the family) on VTV3 channel.[4] She is credited as the logo designer for the Golden Kites Award.[5]
She is the second wife of General Tô Lâm, who has been the General Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam - the highest position in the Politics of Vietnam since late 2024. Before Tô Lâm's marriage to Ngô Phương Ly, he had been in a marriage with another woman but then divorced. [6]
