Film Rattapoom, once at the height of his fame as a solo artist under RS Records, appeared on the talk show Khon Lom Luk with host Ananda Phonworaphut to discuss a major turning point in his life. At his peak, Film recalled landing at least 20 endorsement deals annually, appearing in commercials for everything from shampoos and face cleansers to toothpaste. "I was doing everything back then," he said. "People would be lined up outside my house. It felt short—just five years into this golden period when I hit the storm."

When asked if he saw the news coming, Film revealed he knew beforehand. "If I was going to be a father, I was happy," he explained. "I was shocked but also strangely delighted. But I had to tell my mother first because she is my heart." Film shared that his mother initially reacted with some surprise but ultimately felt joy, as she had been wanting a grandchild.

However, the situation escalated when news of the paternity became public. "When it became news, it turned into something completely different from what we all understood," Film said. "It became clear there were many others in similar situations." The shock deepened when the other party withdrew his name as the father and refused to take a DNA test despite Film's willingness to submit to one and even his court request for testing.

Film addressed the lasting impact of a now-infamous phrase about DNA being visible in one's face. "That one sentence has haunted me. I was taught well by my parents. I would never hurt anyone or speak poorly of anyone," Film stated. "I was only about 22 or 23 at the time. I never intended my words to affect anyone, but they did."

Sunaree Ratchasima, a renowned country music vocalist, has provided an update on her condition following her emergency admission for severe abdominal pain. She shared photos before and after undergoing a colonoscopy procedure and tissue removal from her colon for medical examination through her social media account Sunaree Ratchasima.

In her update, she explained: "I've completed the colonoscopy procedure. I've been hungry since the 24th and haven't eaten anything. The doctor performed the colonoscopy, removed stool that was stuck in my intestines, and took a tissue sample from the area where a narrowing in the colon was preventing bowel movements. I'm waiting for the biopsy results in about a week. I want to thank everyone—family, relatives, and fans—for their concern and support. Wishing everyone good health."

Sunaree expressed her gratitude to all those who have been worried about her recovery.

Pheu Thai party list MP Ekaphop Sithiwannatana revealed the party's stance on the universal health insurance scheme, known as the gold card, following questions from the Rural Doctors Association about the party's position. Pheu Thai supports amending the National Health Security Act of 2002 to address weaknesses and make the system more sustainable and efficient in terms of budget, service quality, and worker morale.

Ekaphop outlined seven key amendments: (1) Restructure the National Health Security Board by increasing representation from service users and healthcare providers like doctors and nurses while reducing government officials, addressing the board's stagnation and lack of fresh perspectives; (2) Promote democracy by having some board members elected directly to enhance accountability in decision-making; (3) Use quality academic data to select benefit packages and adjust payment rates from the National Health Security Office to reflect actual costs; (4) Establish uniform core benefits across all three funds—the National Health Security Fund, Social Security Fund, and civil service medical benefits—to eliminate the Robin Hood phenomenon where hospitals shift funds between schemes; (5) Increase budgets and support personnel with fair compensation to prevent brain drain and staff turnover; (6) Secure additional funding from those able to pay for supplementary benefits, including employers as employee welfare, private insurance holders, and state support for informal workers and farmers; and (7) Strengthen primary healthcare services through investments in community and workplace health promotion, treatment, and accurate referrals.

Ekaphop stated that most proposals came from Pheu Thai's previous election platform, except point two, which he and fellow MPs added. The party will review all proposals, including the government's draft law, before deciding on its approach. He emphasized: "The party affirms it will not support any law that reduces public benefits or increases public burden in accessing healthcare, and will push for greater representation of the public and service providers on the health security board while reducing government proportion."

Prime Minister and Interior Minister Anutin Charnvirakul has responded to a Facebook post supporting legal action against iLaw director Yingcheep Atchanont over the disclosure of politicians' names in an alleged Senate election collusion case. On 26 July 2026, Anutin reportedly confirmed that he would pursue legal action against Yingcheep, director of the Internet Dialogue on Law Reform (iLaw), after nine individuals, including the prime minister and politicians from the Bhumjaithai Party, were named in connection with the case. The development came after the Facebook page "Raksa Phaendin" posted a message expressing support for Anutin and other relevant parties to pursue legal action against Yingcheep and iLaw "to the fullest extent." Anutin responded to the post with the comment: "Noted. Will act accordingly."

On July 26, 2569, at Parliament, Yingluck Achanunt, manager of the iLaw (Internet for the People's Law) project, discussed preparations following the Prime Minister and Bhumjaithai Party's continued lawsuits against him. He stated that vast evidence related to Senate election fraud schemes exists in the files of the Election Commission and the Special Cases Investigation Department—approximately 90,000 pages total—of which his organization possesses only 5%. The information he has publicly disclosed represents merely a fraction of what is available. If the Election Commission orders prosecution, all evidence will be presented in court through proper legal procedures. Should any defendant be acquitted despite clear evidence, he warned he would have no choice but to publicly reveal related financial transaction information.

When asked about an invitation from Suksomruay Wandontiyakul, Amnat Charoen MP and Bhumjaithai minister, to visit Amnat Charoen province, Achanunt said he would not hesitate to go if needed to present facts. He reiterated that if the accused comes forward and clarifies everything fully, the matter would be resolved. However, he stressed that he possesses far more information than what he has already disclosed publicly and that witness testimony remains credible regardless of accusations that witnesses are unreliable.

Regarding claims that he might acknowledge some information could be inaccurate, Achanunt stated he has sources for all his data and verification systems in place. While some details might prove incorrect upon scrutiny, he emphasized there is no malicious intent. He noted that the nine individuals he named have far more associated evidence than he has revealed, and he called on the opposition to investigate and present findings to court. He maintained he has no power beyond what he has already done and that responsibility lies with the opposition.
