A member of Thailand’s royal family was hospitalized on Thursday after a heart problem, the Bureau of the Royal Household said.
It said Princess Bajrakitiyabha, the eldest child of King Maha Vajiralongkorn, was admitted to the King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital in the capital Bangkok after suffering a “heart symptom.”
