History

Her father, Frank McHardy (b. 1948), is an American of Irish, Turkish Kurd, and Czech descent, and her mother, Ngô Quốc Minh (b. 1950), is Vietnamese. Frank was a US Army soldier in the Vietnam War, where he met his wife. After the war ended, Frank and Minh moved to Truth or Consequences, New Mexico in the United States with their daughter. Jensen spoke of her childhood in a 2013 interview for Brozo Army Fansite:

"It was very quiet, to say the least. My parents gave me the power to dream, the power to remove myself from where I might not be having any fun, and go inside my head and be somewhere else."

Jensen speaks fluent Vietnamese, and often wrote in the language for school assignments as a child.
