| Pinky |
Pinky was in India making a movie - her big break into Bollywood - when news broke about her close ties to socialite Peck Sunchai.
According to news reports, Pinky and Peck were caught on a security camera, kissing in the lift of a city hotel.
Other reports had them coo-ing over each other in an aircraft. Still others said Pinky, evidently infatuated with her new love had sent left lovey-dovey messages to him from her BlackBerry smartphone.
Hoping to exploit the fuss over Pinky's supposed infidelity to their own advantage, 30 to 40 event promoters have tried to book Pinky for their functions, according to the Siam Dara gossip rag.
However, Pinky's mother has advised her to turn down all such work offers, and to lie low until the fuss has died down.
In an interview with Khao Sod newspaper, Pinky said the public was too quick to judge.
Two advertisers who had lined up Pinky as a presenter had since put a hold on the campaigns, as - unlike those event promoters - they didn't want to be associated with bad news.
"I feel like a social outcast. Yet most of the information on which people base their judgement comes from the media," she said.
Pinky said her friendship with Peck was innocent.
"I never considered doing anything which was ungraceful or unethical. My family has taught me right from wrong.
"I can look after myself financially and don't need to rely on a wealthy man like Peck for that purpose.
"However, if someone does step up wanting to look after me in that way, he has to be single," she said.
"I haven't broken up anyone's family. If my actions have caused anyone distress, I am sorry. But my parents should do the ticking off, not outsiders."
Earlier, Pinky's mum, Sarinya Chaiyadej, said Peck was more like the leader of Pinky's gang of friends than a lover.
"If Pinky went out with him, she was always with a third person ... they never went alone," she said. "If I wasn't there, her elder brother went with them instead."
Peck had a reputation as a ladies man, but Pinky knew right from wrong, she said. Tanya, meanwhile, said she is back on good terms with her husband, and has forgiven him for the episode with Pinky.
"It's normal for a couple to argue and be on bad terms. But we have made changes and understand each other again. It's all over." -

Presenter/businessman "Uan Return" is threatening defamation action against a gossip magazine after it accused him of playing around with a Channel 7 actor in his car.
Uan (Anan Samaothong), who presents an entertainment show on cable TV, and is also the part-owner of a cosmetics company, has laid a complaint with police after Gossip Star magazine claimed that he paid 50,000 baht to a young actor, and that the pair made out in Uan's sports car.
The article was untrue and had damaged his reputation, Uan said outside Huai Khwang police station, where he laid his complaint.
Uan said he had tried to make contact with the reporter, but she would not return his calls. He was prepared to drop the matter if the reporter was willing to talk.
"I don't hold grudges, and don't mind if reporters are having a gentle poke at me," he said. "I have been in the entertainment industry a long time, and know what it's like.
"I own a black Mercedes sports, just as the story says. But I never been to that particular spot, and didn't spend the night with any youngster from Channel 7.
"A company which had planned to hire me as a presenter has called off the project. My boyfriend of 13 years has taken off, as he too is upset by the publicity.
"I have never made a secret of the fact that I am gay. But their claim that I paid this lad just 50,000 for the night makes me look sex-mad," complained Uan.-

Actor/singer Somchai "Tao" Kemklat is vowing to appeal after a court sentenced him to 15 days in confinement for assaulting a man as he tucked into a bowl of noodles.
Tao, who became a first-time dad in February, turned up at the Lampang district court on Friday to hear it pass sentence in a case brought against him by the prosecutor.
In January, 2009, Lampang grocery store owner Wirachart "Kota" Densirikhun, 56, complained to police that Tao beat him up at a roadside eatery as he was tucking into a bowl of noodles and dumplings.
The pair met for conciliation talks but failed to reach a deal. Tao denied the assault charge, insisting the head and body injuries sustained by Kota that day were an accident.
The court, however, found that Tao did indeed assault Kota, though his injuries were not serious enough to endanger him physically or psychologically.
He had been convicted of two previous assaults, though the suspended term he received for his last offence almost three years ago would not be added to the sentence he would receive for the Kota bashing.
The court sentenced him to 15 days in jail, but said that as a jail term would perform no useful function, decided Tao should spend 15 days in a police cell instead.
Emerging from court, Tao said he would appeal. Kota said he was disappointed with the verdict, but hoped it would serve as a lesson to Tao to keep his hands to himself.
