From the latest drama surrounding the most recent ex-wife of Lung Yothin, aka Mr. Yothin Maphanphphan, 73, a former actor in many productions: it was alleged she called asking for money after donations exceeding 300,000 baht flowed into his account, prompting Ms. Pornthipa Supathnukul, aka "Phor Fah," to personally transfer 2,000 baht to the ex-wife as previously reported.

On October 27, 2026, reporters visited a four-story dormitory in Khu Khot Subdistrict, Lam Luk Ka District, Pathum Thani Province to investigate. There they met Mrs. Bee, 57, the latest ex-wife of Lung Yothin.
Mrs. Bee clarified the accusation that she called demanding money from Lung Yothin, confirming she did not call to demand funds. She said she only tried to contact him out of concern after seeing news about him. Throughout their acquaintance, she never called asking for money, even when he had income from acting and commercials. In the past, he might have given small amounts of 100-200 baht for food, but she never demanded money. She also once received 5,000 baht from Lung Yothin during the government's 10,000-baht handout scheme, which he voluntarily shared.
Regarding their two-year lack of contact: she only had his old number and could not reach him; previous communication channels were also dead. Only after seeing news about him and someone publicizing his new number did she try calling. During that call, she did not know who he was with, nor did she know "Phor Fah." She did not ask for money or inquire whether he would give any, considering it his money to give or not.
The reason he had to leave the room stemmed from expense and responsibility issues within the household, for which she was responsible for water, electricity, and other costs. Lung Yothin did not help share these burdens. When he left the monkhood and wanted to move back in, rent and expense problems arose. The landlord said if Lung Yothin returned, he would have to pay rent himself, as the landlord had previously allowed him to stay free, charging only utilities. She could not bear the full burden alone, and her health has not fully recovered, preventing her from returning to vending as usual. She receives 3,000 baht monthly from her older brother and about 1,900 baht from social security. Friends help with water and electricity bills. She admits their relationship had both good and bad moments; the most hurtful thing was being accused of calling for money. She insists she never sought benefit from Lung Yothin — it was he who offered to give money.
Grandma On, 73, a resident opposite Mrs. Bee's room, said she knew Lung Yothin but rarely spoke with him due to differing opinions and communication styles. He mostly stayed in his room. She had heard them quarrel and use harsh language at times.
