The Vietnamese-Ukrainian couple recently shared a video recording moments in their son Danil’s birthday party, which took place on Nov. 26.

It can be seen in the video that Dung’s father happily enjoys the event, as he holds Danil in his arms and dances along with Zakhidova’s family members while smiling brightly.

“I wish that you will always be healthy,” he is seen telling Danil in the video.

Dung’s mother also wishes her grandson an upcoming year filled with joy and happiness.

Responding to his parents’ wishes, Dung thanks them for “having always loved” his family.

The goalkeeper’s parents reportedly traveled from their hometown, northern Thanh Hoa province, to Ho Chi Minh City, where Zakhidova and Danil are residing, to join the party.

Dung and Zakhidova then send their wishes to their son, with Zakhidova saying: “I just want to say thank you, son, so much for coming into our lives. We’re so happy to have you.”

Dung does not let him fall behind his wife in showing the kid love, as he tells Danil: “I just wanna say I love you so much. I hope next year you can speak, you can walk, and we can play together. We love you so much and happy birthday!”

Zakhidova, 23, is a model. Her husband Dung, 26, gained public recognition as he became a frequent starter in the U23 national team at the 2018 AFC U23 Championship. He currently plays for Hanoi Police Football Club.

The couple got married in May 2022.
