BANGKOK: Thailand’s Queen Mother Sirikit, who brought glamor and elegance to a postwar revival in the country’s monarchy and who, in later years, would occasionally wade into politics, has died aged 93, the Thai Royal Household Bureau said on Saturday. Sirikit had been out of the public eye since a stroke in 2012. The palace said she had been hospitalized since 2019 due to several illnesses and developed a bloodstream infection on October 17 before passing away late on Friday. A mourning period of one year has been declared for members of the royal family and household.

The mother of King Vajiralongkorn passed away "peacefully" on Friday night, according to the Thai Royal Household.
