Thailand's Princess Bajrakitiyabha Narendira Debyavati, the oldest child of King Maha Vajiralongkorn, has been hospitalised due to a heart problem and her condition has stabilised at a certain level, the royal palace said today.

Princess Bajrakitiyabha (above), 44, was taken ill after losing consciousness early on Wednesday in northeastern Nakhon Ratchasima province and was treated at a local hospital.

She was flown by helicopter to Bangkok after her condition stabilised at a certain level, the palace said in a statement.

The princess is one of King Vajiralongkorn's three children who have formal titles, making her eligible for the throne under a 1924 Palace Law of Succession.
