Now when it comes to the Thai royal family, many people first think of the rumors of the current Thai king's absurdity, but they ignore one point, that is, the Thai king has been making waves for many years, and the country can still maintain a stable situation, which actually has a lot to do with his sister Princess Sirindhorn.
Sirindhorn was a regrettable princess, she was beautiful in her youth, and her talent was even more amazing, she was once crowned as the crown prince by the old King of Thailand, but in the end she could not become a queen, and could only watch that her brother was inferior to her brother to inherit the throne in all aspects.
After her brother succeeded to the throne, Princess Sirindhorn was overly stressed for some reasons and soon began to get fat and old.
After becoming fat, Sirindhorn's temperament has changed greatly, and now that she is 66 years old, she and her mother look like sisters in the same frame, and her former stunning appearance has never returned, which is really regrettable.
01 The princess who changed the constitution - the first crown princess
In 1979, a groundbreaking event took place in Thailand. In order to appoint his second daughter Sirindhorn as Crown Prince, King Bhumibol of Thailand did not hesitate to amend the Thai Constitution and change the rule that only men in Thailand could be made crown prince.

According to the generational points, the Crown Princess does not seem to be in Sirindhorn's turn. Because the king and the queen of Thailand had three daughters and a son, Sirindhorn was only the second among the daughters.
But Sirindhorn's greatest strength lies in her rational and restrained character, she always puts the country first, and never indulges herself because of personal preferences.
This is something that her other three siblings do not have, so King Bhumibol of Thailand is particularly fond of this second daughter.
Sirindhorn showed extraordinary political qualities from an early age, she was intelligent, reiki, and learned everything at once.
Obviously with a beautiful and stunning appearance, but not a love brain, while the other two princesses are busy in love, Sirindhorn has a clear understanding of the political situation in Thailand.
She likes to hang a camera on her chest to go to thailand's folk land to investigate, and record what she sees and feels in a notebook she carries with her. Sirindhorn's habit was very similar to that of her father, King Bhumibol, so she was rated as the most like King Bhumibol of Thailand among her children.
For these reasons, the old Thai king Bhumibol was extremely fond of and valued Princess Sirindhorn, and he cultivated Sirindhorn as a crown prince and placed high hopes on Sirindhorn.
In 1979, the old Thai King Bhumibol amended the Thai Constitution and officially crowned the second princess Sirindhorn as the crown princess, becoming the first female crown prince in Thailand.
To say that the appointment of the crown princess, in addition to Sirindhorn herself is good enough, is actually inseparable from her ridiculous brother Lalongkorn.
Lalongkorn was the only son of the old Thai king Bhumibol, who was the only heir to the throne in Thailand before Princess Sirindhorn was crown prince.
Perhaps because there is no sense of crisis, Lalongkorn has been arrogant and willful since childhood, and the old king of Thailand has the heart to teach, but the queen Sirikit is extremely doting on this son, and eventually develops his lawless character.
Lalongkorn did everything according to his own preferences, never reckless, let alone considering the interests of the country.
He even cheated on a small star Yuwa Hilda after marrying a noble wife, and openly lived with her, even at the expense of divorcing her original wife, which caused a national uproar in Thailand.

Years of absurdity by Lalongkorn brought the king's dissatisfaction with his son to its peak.
In this case, the old Thai king Bhumibol Bhumibol had two obvious benefits:
First, it can increase the sense of crisis of his son Lalongkorn, telling him that the throne of Lalongkorn is not indispensable to him, and if he continues to be crushed by his sister Sirindhorn everywhere, there is a possibility of being replaced.
After all, the old king of Thailand only has one son, in case something happens to this son, the princess as the crown prince will not let the throne be followed by no one.

After the death of the old Thai king Bhumibol in 2016, there was a dispute in the country over who would inherit the throne of the two crown princes, and in the end, Princess Sirindhorn missed the throne, and her brother Lalongkorn succeeded to the throne as Rama X.

Princess Sirindhorn's missed throne has made many people regret and many people can't figure it out, because the princess's civil support rate has always been much higher than that of his brother, and she is the most popular crown prince in Thailand, but why didn't Princess Sirindhorn become king?
There are two reasons for this:
First, although the princess had a high support rate among the common people, her power in the army was not as good as that of her brother Lalongkorn.
Lalongkorn had been an officer in the army for many years, so he had a lot of support in the army, and no matter how good the princess's reputation among the people was, it was difficult to resist the direct support of the army.
The second is that empress dowager Sirikit is too partial to her son, and the empress dowager has always been extremely doting on her son Lalongkorn, and between her son and daughter, she finally chooses to support her most beloved son.
With the support of the empress, other nobles in Thailand also saw the wind and supported Lalongkorn, so the princess did not inherit the throne.

After Lalonggong succeeded to the throne, without his father's control, he became more pampered and willful, and his actions had become absurd to the extent that they were unscrupulous.
Lalongkorn not only has the long-standing relationship between men and women been chaotic, humiliating the image of Thailand, but also irresponsible for the governance of the country.
Lalongkorn himself was absent from Thailand for a long time, often leading a group of concubines to Germany for pleasure, and then dumping almost all domestic affairs to his sister Sirindhorn.
These absurd acts of Lalongkorn have been spat upon by netizens, saying that the royal families of other countries are "constitutional monarchies", and Lalongkorn's long-term absence from their own country is simply a "monarchy offline system".

Although Princess Sirindhorn did not inherit the throne, she really the heart of the king over the years, and it can be said that she is both a princess and a king.
In fact, if you look closely at the princess's photos, you will find that her fattening and aging began after her brother succeeded to the throne, because since then, the burden of the country has almost been on her.
This is especially obvious when looking at the same frame photo of Princess Sirindhorn and Empress Sirikit, the two obviously have an age difference of several tens of years, but they look like sisters, which is actually an intuitive embodiment of the current living conditions of the mother and daughter.

Empress Dowager Shi Li Ji'an enjoyed qingfu, and did not worry about everything every day, only responsible for buying bags and jewelry and beauty and beauty; while Princess Shi Lintong was in charge of domestic affairs, because her brother was too unreliable as a king, she had to worry about big things and small things, so she naturally grew old quickly under overwork.
03 The Thai Royal Family's Needle of the God of The Sea
Today's Thai royal family is in turmoil, the Thai king Lalongkorn has been absurd for a long time, and finally fell ill not long ago, and when he was critically ill, he left a lot of messes that have not yet been solved.
The heirs of Lalongkorn are thin, the only son of the current queen currently looks like a worrying IQ, and the crown prince of Thailand can be said to be a successor.
And The relationship between men and women in Lalonggong for many years was chaotic, and after the abolition of the establishment, it was like a child's play, and the biggest consequence of these acts was that the concubines were conspiring to fight, and the power struggle in the harem was white-hot.
There were even rumors at one point that the queen would support her seven-year-old son to ascend to the throne and then become the empress dowager, and these disputes were dramatically filled, which can be called the Thai version of "The Biography of Zhen Huan".
At this critical time, clear-eyed people can see that Thailand's national security is tied to Princess Sirindhorn, who can be said to be the needle of the sea god for Thailand's current stable situation.
In fact, for a long time, Sirindhorn and her brother Lalongkorn were in a magical mode of getting along.
On the one hand, Lalongkorn trusted his sister Sirindhorn's political ability quite a bit, entrusted all domestic affairs to his sister, and ran to Germany to enjoy himself for many years.

On the other hand, Lalongkorn was a man of capricious temper, and Sirindhorn seemed to be valued, but in fact she had not had a good life over the years and had always been cautious in front of her brother.
Not long ago, there was a rumor that Princess Sirindhorn advised her brother not to appoint a noble concubine as empress for the sake of royal face, but she was severely beaten by Lalonggong.
Although the details of the matter are not known to be true or false, since meeting her brother, Sirindhorn has indeed injured her feet and sat in a wheelchair for a long time, which makes people regret and sympathize with the princess's suffering.
But in any case, with princess Sirindhorn's heart, even if she has been wronged in the past, this time she will still stand up for the interests of the country to maintain stability, and her heart is really admirable.
From Princess Sirindhorn's experience, it can be seen that the real nobility of the royal family is not in birth, but in whether it has the quality of serving the country and the people.
Lalongkorn and Sirindhorn are from the same origin, but the love of the two brothers and sisters in the hearts of the people is very different, which shows that the Thai people have a scale in their hearts, who is selfish and arrogant for the country and the people, and the Thai people have long seen it clearly.
