Thailand’s King Vajiralongkorn has stripped his imperial accompaniment of her rank as well as titles for “misbehavior and disloyalty versus the majesty.”
An official announcement said Sineenat Wongvajirapakdi had actually been “enthusiastic” and tried to “raise herself to the same state as the queen.”
“The royal consort’s practices were considered disrespectful,” it claimed.
She was selected in July, simply two months after the king married Queen Suthida, his 4th better half.
Sineenat, who was a major-general and is an experienced pilot, registered nurse, and bodyguard, was the very first individual to be granted the title of Royal Noble Consort in almost a century.
Queen Suthida – a 41-year-old previous steward as well as deputy head of his bodyguard device, is King Vajiralongkorn’s long-term companion as well as has been seen with him in public for several years.
The announcement was made that Sineenat was stripped of her titles was released in the Royal Gazette on Monday. It marked an unexpected loss from elegance for the royal consort, that for a few years, was also seen many times with King Vajiralongkorn.
Even after the king’s marriage to Queen Suthida, Sineenat was a normal guest at royal occasions.
What did the palace say?
The statement released on Monday claimed Sineenat had actually “shown resistance and stress in every manner to quit the appointment of the Queen” ahead of the crowning in Might.
“The king provided her an imperial accompaniment position, in hopes of easing the pressure as well as a trouble that might influence the monarchy,” the statement said.
It also implicated the imperial consort of “revolt against the kingdom,” as well as of abusing her power to provide orders on the king’s part.
The king, the statement claimed, had learned “she neither was grateful to the title presented upon her, nor did she behave suitably according to her standing.”
