On the morning of May 9, Thai media outlet Line Today reported that Baifern Pimchanok and actor-singer Porsche Sivakorn, who is six years younger than her, unexpectedly became embroiled in dating rumors after appearing together at a press conference promoting the film My Dearest Assassin.

At the event, Porsche’s attentive gestures toward Baifern quickly caught the public’s eye and soon became a hot topic across online forums. Throughout the promotional activities, the younger actor stayed close to the actress at all times, from pulling out a chair for her during interviews to offering his hand whenever she walked up or down stairs. In front of cameras, the 1998-born star appeared visibly concerned that Baifern might trip over her long glamorous dress and suffer an accident during the event.

The speculation did not stop there. On social media, the two stars also openly praised each other. When Baifern complimented Porsche by saying, “You’re so talented,” the actor sweetly responded, “No, you’re even more talented than me.”

Meanwhile, actions from Baifern’s manager further fueled online discussions. In a clip uploaded by the manager, netizens noticed that the camera repeatedly focused on Porsche, to the point many jokingly commented, “This is Baifern’s manager, but they seem more interested in Porsche than Baifern herself.” Because of this, many began suspecting that Baifern and Porsche might secretly be dating and even receiving support from the actress’ inner circle.

As of now, neither Baifern Pimchanok nor Porsche Sivakorn has responded to the dating rumors currently spreading across social media.

The rumors gained even more attention because just one day earlier, Nine Naphat unexpectedly confirmed that he is currently in a new relationship following his breakup with Baifern. During an interview with Thai media, Nine openly revealed, “I’m currently dating someone outside the entertainment industry. I want things to develop naturally and slowly. I’d like to keep this relationship private for her sake and for her family as well. My heart is already taken.”

Seeing the current situation surrounding the former couple, some netizens speculated that both stars may be subtly trying to “one-up” each other after their breakup.

Baifern Pimchanok and Nine Naphat previously worked together in Friend Zone and A Tale of ylang ylang. In 2023, they publicly confirmed they were getting to know each other romantically, causing a major stir among fans. However, in July 2024, Nine officially confirmed their breakup.

What made the situation even more controversial was speculation that Nine’s mother, Moo Pimpaka, may have played a role in the split. Although she initially encouraged her son to pursue Baifern, she reportedly unfollowed both Nine and Baifern on social media after they had dated for about six months. She also frequently posted childhood photos of Nine alongside emotional captions expressing how much she missed him.

When the couple traveled to Switzerland together in June 2024, Moo Pimpaka even hinted online that she felt “very lonely,” leading many netizens to suspect that Nine had been pressured by his mother to end the relationship. Observers also recalled that before Baifern, Moo Pimpaka had allegedly interfered in Nine’s previous relationship with a non-celebrity girlfriend as well.
