Thailand’s royal household has announced the death of Princess Bajrakitiyabha, the eldest daughter of King Vajiralongkorn, at the age of 47.
She had been in a coma for three and a half years after collapsing while exercising her dogs.
She was the most visibly accomplished member of the royal family, a lawyer and one-time Thai ambassador to Austria, who pushed for reforms to her country’s criminal justice system.
She was close to her father. And although King Vajiralongkorn, who is 73 years old, has not yet named an heir, she might have played an important role in a future royal succession.
