The crown prince at that time declared: "I am now 50 years old, I think it's time for me to have a home of my own".

It seemed that the home of Crown Prince "Don Juan" was really peaceful, but then the storm suddenly hit at the end of 2014. According to the Royal information released at that time, 7 relatives in the family of Princess Srirasmi was exposed to a corruption scandal with a huge fortune and took advantage of the position of the Royal Family for personal gain.

Crown Prince Maha then sent a letter to the Ministry of Home Affairs requesting that the royal name be stripped of his wife's family. Mrs. Srirasmi became a commoner, left the palace and had to part with her son, Prince Dipangkorn Rasmijoti (born 2005).

Since December 2014, many images have shown that Ms. Suthida often appears next to the Crown Prince but is not merely a Royal bodyguard.
