Thai palace shares unusually candid images of king's consort
 [BBC] Rare photographs of the king of Thailand's newly-anointed consort have been released by the palace, reportedly causing its website to crash.Sineenat Wongvajirapakdi, 34, is shown piloting a fighter jet, wearing combat fatigues, and firing a gun. A consort is a title given by a monarch to his or her spouse or companion. King Maha Vajiralongkorn, 67, bestowed the title on Sineenat in July, two months after his marriage to Queen Suthida, his fourth wife. Sineenat, a major-general, was the first person to have been awarded the title of Royal Noble Consort in nearly a century. Posted by: Besoeker 2019-08-27 |
