Thailand's King's Estranged Son Returns Unexpectedly After 27 Years

Vacharaesorn Vivacharawongse, the estranged son of Thailand's King Maha Vajiralongkorn, has returned to the country after 27 years of living abroad. His surprise visit comes at a sensitive time for the Thai royal family, as the king's eldest daughter remains in a coma. Vacharaesorn, who works in New York, visited a daycare center for underprivileged children and donated money to support their work. The king, who has not named an official heir, has been married four times and has seven children.
