Shortly after, copies of her university transcript showing poor academic performance were circulated online. Huong later stated that her academic performance was affected by health issues.

Concealment of marital status and performing ban (2014)

In March 2014, details surfaced during divorce proceedings indicating that Luu Thi Diem Huong had secretly married a businessman in 2011. This marriage occurred prior to her participation as Vietnam's official representative at the Miss Universe 2012 pageant, which strictly required all contestants to be single.
