‘Thai king’s eldest daughter in hospital with heart problem’ – Times of India

She was flown by helicopter to Bangkok after her condition stabilised at a certain level, the palace said, without elaborating. The princess is one of three children of King Vajiralongkorn who have formal titles, making her eligible for the throne under a 1924 Palace Law of Succession and the country’s constitution. King Vajiralongkorn has yet to formally designate an heir since becoming king in 2016 and there has been no official discussion on the prospect of the princess taking the throne.
The princess, who has done work with the UN and has served as Thailand’s ambassador to Austria, Slovenia and Slovakia, was attending a working dog championship organised by the army when she lost consciousness, the palace said. She was being treated at a Bangkok hospital on Thursday where she was undergoing treatment and checks, it said.
While the palace succession law stipulates that the heir to the throne should be male, an amendment to the constitution in 1974 allowed for a daughter of the royal line to ascend the throne if a successor had not been named.
