Suthida (Thai: สุทิดา, pronounced [sùʔ.tʰíʔ.dāː] ( listen)), born Suthida Tidjai (Thai: สุทิดา ติดใจ; 3 June 1978),[2] is the queen consort of Thailand and fourth wife of King Vajiralongkorn.[3]

Early life and education
Suthida was born on 3 June 1978. She graduated from Assumption University with a bachelor's degree in communication arts in 2000.[2] Suthida was formerly a flight attendant for Thai Airways.[4]
Crown Prince's guard
Suthida was appointed commander of Crown Prince Vajiralongkorn's household guard in August 2014. Suthida was linked romantically to the crown prince following his divorce from Srirasmi Suwadee.[5][6][7][8][9] In October 2016, international media reports labeled her as the designated king's "consort", despite the palace never officially declaring their relationship.[10][11] Her name is consistent with naming conventions for wives of Thai princes.
On 13 October 2017 she was named a Dame Grand Cross (First Class) of The Most Illustrious Order of Chula Chom Klao,[12] which bestows the title Than Phu Ying (Thai: ท่านผู้หญิง; rtgs: than phu ying). She is the first female officer to receive this honour since 2004 and the first in the reign of King Rama X.
Royal Thai Army service
On 1 December 2016 she was appointed Commander of the Special Operations Unit of the King's Guard and promoted to the rank of general.[13][14] She reached her present rank after only six years of service.
On 1 June 2017 she was appointed as acting commander of Royal Thai Aide-de-Camp Department following the reorganization of the Royal Security Command.
Queen consort
On 1 May 2019 Suthida was made the queen consort of King Vajiralongkorn[3][15] whose coronation is scheduled to be held in Bangkok on 4–6 May 2019.[16] The marriage registration took place at the Amphorn Sathan Residential Hall in Bangkok, with Princess Sirindhorn and President of Privy Council Prem Tinsulanonda as witnesses.[17]
