Naturally, the internet went crazy after a woman received a noble rank in Thailand.

What’s so special, you ask?

Well, this is the first occurrence in a century.

Also, tons of photos were released by the monarchy, and a biography to boot.

That’s right.

Yesterday, the Thai palace just released super rare photos of the king’s new royal consort, a former army nurse. This includes candid photos of her aiming a weapon on a firing range, piloting a plane and preparing to parachute.

Here Are The Peektures:

Is it just me or does she look like she can be the lead in an action movie?

Yup, she even knows how to pilot a plane, while I struggle to pilot my own life.

And it seems that plenty of people wants to take a peek at her because yesterday, the website crashed.

A palace official said that the website crashed because of the volume of traffic.

Rare Glimpse 

The monarchy is known to be very private with their lives, however, this incident was the exception. Unsurprisingly, the palace’s website could not handle the traffic the photos garnered, judging by the crash.
