Sineenat was a long-time mistress of Crown Prince Vajiralongkorn of Thailand. She was given several military ranks and positions. After Prince Vajiralongkorn became King Rama X, he made her as his Royal Noble Consort, giving her the noble title of Chao Khun Phra.[4] She is the first woman to hold the title of a royal concubine of the King of Thailand in almost a century.[5]
