News that Nine Naphat had officially moved on and started dating again two years after his breakup with Baifern Pimchanok has dominated Asian media and online communities over the past three days. On the afternoon of May 11, Thai outlet Tnews further fueled the buzz by unexpectedly revealing details about the actor’s rumored new love interest.
According to reports, Nine’s current girlfriend is believed to be fashion influencer Malinee C, who currently has more than 214,000 followers on Instagram. Thai media outlets noticed that Nine has reportedly liked nearly every post uploaded by the influencer since November of last year.
Malinee C is known for her fair skin, slim figure, and bold fashion sense, which have quickly drawn attention online.
When compared side-by-side, many netizens commented that Malinee C’s visuals may not surpass Baifern Pimchanok’s legendary beauty, but her toned figure is considered equally impressive.
As of now, Nine Naphat has not publicly responded to rumors claiming that influencer Malinee C is the woman who captured his heart.
Earlier, during an interview with Thai media on May 8, Nine shocked fans across Asia by confidently confirming he was dating someone new.
He stated, “I’m currently dating someone outside the entertainment industry. I want everything to progress naturally and slowly. I want to protect this relationship privately and respect both her privacy and her family’s privacy as well. My heart is already taken.”
Before publicly revealing his new relationship, Nine was famously involved in a deeply emotional romance with Baifern Pimchanok, who is four years older than him.
Fans may remember that Baifern and Nine previously starred together in Friend Zone and A Tale of ylang ylang. In 2023, the pair confirmed they were getting to know each other romantically, causing a massive sensation online.
However, in July 2024, Nine officially announced their breakup. What drew even more attention was speculation that Nine’s mother former beauty queen and actress Moo Pimpaka may have played a role in the split.
Moo Pimpaka had initially encouraged her son to pursue Baifern. But after the couple dated for around six months, fans noticed that she unfollowed both Nine and Baifern on social media.
She also frequently posted old childhood photos of her son while expressing how much she missed him. During Nine and Baifern’s trip to Switzerland in June 2024, Moo Pimpaka even hinted online that she felt “very lonely.”
As a result, many netizens speculated that Nine may have been pressured by his mother to end the relationship with Baifern.
Reports also claimed that before Baifern, Moo Pimpaka had previously interfered in another one of Nine’s relationships with a non-celebrity girlfriend.
