The 24-year old socialite contracted Covid-19 in the UK and her father, Jonathan Hanh Nguyen, chairman of Imex Pan Pacific Group (IPPG), arranged a private charter plane to bring her back home to receive treatment. Her father runs a diversified business empire in Vietnam, distributing luxury fashion brands such as Chanel, Dior, Louis Vuitton and Burberry in high-end shopping malls and duty-free stores and food franchises such as Burger King and Domino’s Pizza.
