?ng Tuy?t Mai; also known as Madame Nguy?n Cao K? (1942) is the former wife of Nguy?n Cao K?; former South Vietnamese air force commander and politician; who served as Prime Minister of South Vietnam from 1965 to 1967; and then as Vice President until his retirement from politics in 1971.
Some sources have referred to Madame ?ng Tuy?t Mai as the former First Lady of South Vietnam while others as the former second lady since her ex-husband's highest position in the former South Vietnam was Vice President and not President. She was an Air Vietnam stewardess before she married General Ky; then the chief of staff of the Republic of Vietnam Air Force.
While her husband served as Prime Minister and Vice President she would travel around South Vietnam along with him wearing a military flight suit to show solidarity with the armed forces.
During the Fall of Saigon; her husband had made arrangements for her and their children to be evacuated; while he made his last effort to save South Vietnam; but his efforts were futile and he fled South Vietnam aboard the USS Blue Ridge and fled to the United States; and they settled in California.
She has since moved back to Vietnam; where she manages the restaurant Ph? Ta in Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City). Pictures From History
