Across social media, fans have been showering Nong Poy with congratulations, expressing joy at her finding love at last. In the past, her romantic journey had faced many challenges. She once had a long-term relationship with golfer Warwick Wong, but they parted ways after five years due to differing priorities. Poy was also rumored to have dated actor Koo Chih-Lung after they worked together on the film White Storm (2013). However, Nong Poy quickly dismissed those rumors, stating that she only saw him as a younger brother.
Nong Poy was born in 1986. She became the winner of the Miss International Queen pageant in 2004 and quickly rose to prominence as the most recognized transgender celebrity in Thailand. She is known for her success across many fields—modeling, singing, and as a TV host. In every area she ventures into, Nong Poy excels and continues to inspire the LGBTQ+ community with her beauty and talents.
