| Sandwich, Leon, Sek |
Rocker Sek Loso is under fire after admitting he has fathered an infant son but has since left the child’s mother, a Channel 7 actress, for someone else.
Sek last week published a picture of himself, his three-month old son Leon and the child’s mother, Paphada "Sandwich" Chotikawanitch, whom he started seeing last year.
He asked netizens to welcome the youngster into the world without mentioning he had since left Sandwich to raise the child alone.
Sek’s former wife, Wiphakorn "Kan" Sukpimai, was the first to respond to Sek’s news, criticising him for breaking a promise to keep the child’s birth a secret until he had told the three children from their marriage.
In the event, they found out from the media they now had a young half-sibling.
Unflustered by the criticism, Sek admitted later in the week he is now seeing the 2009 Miss Maxim beauty contest runner-up, Apisaya "Eve" Pattanaworasap but has yet to call off his relationship with Sandwich.

Sek’s news that he was a father again didn’t go smoothly for the rocker, as critics Sandwich, her father and Kan attacked him for his conduct.
Kan, who divorced Sek last year, said she and Sandwich talk regularly about Sek as they both know him as former lovers. Sandwich reached out to her when he started behaving oddly.
"Sandwich tells me he has gone back to his strange ways of the past, which I last saw back in the days when he was taking hard drugs. She says he talks to the fridge and sees things which aren’t there. After hearing Sandwich and I were in contact, Sek started to worry we would get a psychiatrist to commit him to care,” Kan said, denying the two had any such plans afoot.
"He posted details of his new son to get at me, as he knows our three children [from their marriage together] are my sensitive point. News he has a new child in his life might hurt their feelings.”
In January 2012, Sek admitted himself to a detox hospital for treatment after Kan outed him as a hard drugs user on social media.
Sandwich’s father, who agreed Sek had broken a promise to keep word of the child’s birth a secret, said he was unfazed by Sek’s remarks that he had since taken up with another woman.
“You can be a philanderer if you like, but you must pay women some respect if you want to be regarded as a man; you can’t do it indiscriminately like a dog,” he said in widely quoted remarks.
Sandwich’s father said he was present at the hospital when his daughter gave birth, unlike Sek, who was busy. In Sek’s absence, he also provided the name Leon, his surname, on the baby's birth certificate. The rocker says he intends to change it to his own surname once he has arranged the paperwork.
Responding later in the week to taunts he had been showing some peculiar ways, Sek joked he talked to the fridge, computer and air-con unit too, as it was hard to get sense out of people these days.
“Oh, fridge with special powers, tell me, who is the smartest one in all the land?” he wrote.
Sandwich said she had never moved in with Sek even from the outset, so it was inaccurate to say the two had now parted ways.
Peck risks life to please fans

Singer Palitchoke "Peck" Ayanaputra is recovering from a food allergy scare in Los Angeles which forced his admission to hospital.
It comes amid warnings that he was silly to attempt to carry on with a concert even while sick.
Writing on social media, his manager, Pong, blamed himself for the drama, saying he served Peck a Thai meal containing prawns, to which he is allergic, without realising it.
Peck managed to sing a few songs at his concert on Wednesday so as not to disappoint fans, but after losing strength left his friend and singer, Pramote “Oat” Patarn, to take on the rest of the concert alone.
Pong said the young singer turned breathless after his prawn meal, so he called a medic to give him first aid.
The medic gave him a self-administered drug, adrenaline, branded as Epipen, which Peck injected to his leg.
That gave him the strength he needed to perform a few songs before he finally admitted himself to hospital.
A day later, Peck wrote on social media that he had now fully recovered and intended carrying on with his concert tour.
Responding to the news, the admin of the website “drama addict”, who is a doctor, said Peck was foolish to force himself to perform, as he could have put his life at risk.
“Epipen is for treating serious cases of allergy, such as anaphylaxis where the patient may have trouble breathing or die of shock. You must seek medical care as soon as you can after taking it. Forcing yourself to go on is not a sign of courage but risky in the extreme,” he said.
Peck, who is still touring, has yet to respond to the warning.
Sia Ood's sad demise in cheap hotel
Sitthikorn “Sia Ood” Boonchim, the former billionaire amulet trader whose assets will be confiscated by graftbusters even in death, was found with just 200 baht in his pocket when he succumbed to a pill overdose in October 2015.
Sia Ood, whose body was found in a Phitsanulok hotel room, died of a suspected anxiety pill overdose. He left a letter claiming he had given away 3 billion baht in his lifetime but received little thanks in return.
The Anti-Money Laundering Office (Amlo) revealed last week its transaction inspection committee had ordered the seizure of a sum of 8.29 million baht from two bank accounts held by Sia Ood and his associates.
After his release from prison, but before his death, Amlo ordered Sia Ood’s assets confiscated on money laundering charges he was facing in connection with a controversial amulet production and sale project.
Sia Ood was found guilty in 2008 of swindling the public by using the royal insignia without permission to produce and sell Somdej Nau Hua amulets. He was released from jail on June 20, 2015.
After his release, Sia Ood, who befriended many young male entertainers in his heyday, grumbled he had found few friends since regaining his freedom. This was despite giving away his fortune to temples, schools and his actor friends.
His elder brother Chaowalit admitted Sia Ood was found with just 200 baht in his pocket when he died of suspected suicide at the grimy hotel.
‘‘He once had a big home and smart cars but kept little else for himself. Even the land his parents left him as inheritance, which would be worth a fortune today, he gave away to a temple,’’ he said.
‘‘In 20 years, I never saw him take a motorcycle taxi, but that is how he was getting around before he died.’’
