SINEENAT WONGVAJIRAPAKDI - THAIland's short-served 'ROYAL NOBLE CONSORT'


Sineenat Wongvajirapakdi
(born Niramon Unprom)
Thai King Rama X made history last July when he appointed the kingdom's first Royal Noble Consort in nearly 100 years. King Maha Vajiralongkorn elevated a boduguard to this position (last time bestown in 1921) on his 67th birthday (July 27) & almost three months after marrying his fourth official wife, Queen Suthida. Although an exactly opposite confusion (to the previous) was caused last month, when in a royal degree Vajiralongkorn stripped Sineenat from all of her royal titles & anulled her previous military positions & ranks. Let's see more about Sineenat Wongvajirapakdi!

Her official biography, published in Thai Royal Household Bureau last August, states that she was born on 26 January 1985 in Nan Province of Northern Thailand. Her original name is Niramon Un (Oun)-Prom. She underwent schooling in the regions of her hometown & went on to earn a bachelor degree in nursing from Thai Royal Army Nursing College in 2008. She practiced as a nurse at Ananda Mahidol Hospital in the years 2008-2012.

From 2014, Ounprom undertook several trainings in Thai Army, in topics that include bodyguarding, parachuting & a "combat qualifying course in jungle warfare". By the end of that year she became a Colonel & received the noble name: Sineenat WongVajirapakdi. In 2015 she was enrolled to a policing body in the 'Royal King's Guards 904', obtaining the rank of Major General in May this year. Wongvajirapakdi also took a private pilot's licence following training in a private German school of Thai Air Fornce in 2018.

On July 28, 2019, & less than three months after proclaiming his new Queen Consort (on May 1), King Vajiralongkorn bestowed the title of Royal Noble Consort to Sineenat, making her the country's first official concubine ever since Constitutional monarchy was adopted (1935). Sineenat went through a full-royal annointment by the King, who poured sacred water on her head & placed royal leaves on her right ear, while she lay in a full-bowing position in front of him & the Queen; in a formal ceremony, marking HM's 67th birthday on that day. The new consort received several supreme royal & military decorations in conjunction with her appointment. A month later, several photographs (both formal & less so) crashed the website of Royal Household Bureau, by being massively published along her official bio, as her formal duties increased.

Then the unexpected removal came on Monday, October 21, as an order published in the government's gazette (so irrevocable). It stated that Sineenat has shown disobedience towards the King, "gross insubordination" & division among the servants. The statement referred her enmity for the appointment of Suthida as Queen, concuring herself for the position. Therefore (it mentioned) despite His Majesty gave her the abovementioned honorific title to calm up her behavior (thus solving the mystery behind reinstating the polygamy tradition of past centuries), the Royal Noble Consort continued to be "disloyal, ungrateful and ungracious to His Majesty the King's kindness", but over-displayed ambition & authority, giving orders on behalf of the King, which he never actually initiated. As such her anachronistic fairytail of 85 days was ended immediately with Niramon stripped of all her previous titles, ranks & decorations and hence disappearing from the public eye.
