Kensington Palace released a new photograph of Princess Charlotte, the daughter of Prince William and Princess Catherine, Prince and Princess of Wales, on May 3 to celebrate her 11th birthday, sharing the image on their Instagram account @princeandprincessofwales with the message: "Wishing Princess Charlotte a very happy 11th birthday!" accompanied by a cake emoji.

In the portrait, Princess Charlotte is dressed simply in a black and red striped long-sleeve sweater and dark blue jeans, standing in a verdant garden with various trees and white flowering shrubs. She has grown considerably, with long blonde hair tinged with golden-brown tones. Her sharp facial features bear some resemblance to Queen Elizabeth II during her youth, while also recalling her father Prince William, but what remains constant is her natural, radiant smile and the brightness in her eyes that reflects her determined character.

The photograph was taken by renowned photographer Matt Porteous during the Easter break in Cornwall, around the same time as a family portrait released on Wednesday, April 29, marking Prince William and Princess Catherine's 15th wedding anniversary. In that family photo, each member celebrates casually dressed in t-shirts and trousers, lying on lush green grass in a row—Prince William, Prince George (age 12), Princess Catherine, Prince Louis (age 8), and Princess Charlotte—all smiling joyfully, with their two dogs, Orla and Otto, also featured in the image.

Sheffield Wednesday has officially confirmed that Aris Capital Partners, an investment group from the United States, has completed its takeover and become the club's new owner. The English club was previously owned by Thai businessman Dechapol Chansiri but faced serious financial difficulties and unpaid player and staff wages, requiring the club to enter administration. During the final Championship match on May 2, 2025, Sheffield Wednesday announced the news before their game against West Bromwich Albion, with fans giving a warm reception. The team won that match 2-1. This season, Sheffield Wednesday has accumulated an 18-point deduction, finishing with zero points across 46 matches and relegating to League One as bottom-placed team. The club was originally set to receive a 15-point deduction for next season, but this has been reversed as they have exited administration. The club's statement indicated: "The transaction has been completed following consultation with all stakeholders. The English Football League has determined that the 15-point penalty is no longer appropriate, and the club will therefore start next season with a clean slate of zero points as normal."

At 7:00 PM on May 2, 2569 (2026), investigative officer Utit Asanok from Bang Bua Thong Police Station received a report of a death at a condominium on Chanthong Thiam Lane, Bang Rak Pattana Subdistrict, Bang Bua Thong District, Nonthaburi Province. Officers including Station Commander Thassagorn Konthong, Deputy Commander Chanadhip Panthong, and investigator Siroderm Sripunya, along with a forensic pathologist and volunteers, responded to the scene.

At the 8-story condominium, room 1422 on the 4th floor, investigators found the body of Ms. Panidsuada, known as Dream, 25 years old, an online vendor and model, lying face-down beside the bed. She was wearing only underwear, with two pillows placed over her head. The room showed signs of disorder. A diary was also found containing notes written by Nitirund, 33, her boyfriend and fellow online merchant, mentioning threats against him and requesting someone care for his cat and belongings.

Investigations revealed the couple had lived together for over five years. Nitirund suffers from mental illness with paranoid tendencies, constantly fearing someone would kill him. The victim suffered from depression and the couple had engaged in severe arguments, with one previous physical altercation. Nitirund's parents last contacted him on April 30 and have been unable to reach him since.

CCTV footage shows Nitirund left the condominium on April 30 at approximately 4:32 PM in a red sedan and has not been heard from since.

Nitirund's 52-year-old father stated that the victim's mother had been calling for several days without answer. Yesterday they came to the room but found it locked. They heard a cat inside and assumed the couple had gone out to eat. This morning, when the mother returned and had Nitirund open the door, they discovered she had died.

The father added that his son could not be contacted. His son and the victim argued regularly, both suffering from mental illness requiring doctor visits, though his son refused medication. According to his son's account, they frequently quarreled over the boyfriend not allowing his girlfriend to carry her phone while eating out. There was one previous physical altercation, though not severe. They had been together for five years.

Nitirund's 59-year-old mother said they had been dating for five years but only recently moved in together about a year ago. They previously fought about his infidelity, which the girlfriend resented and brought up repeatedly. The boyfriend believed the girlfriend would harm him, poison him, and insisted she eat first before he would eat. He constantly feared someone would poison him, refusing to eat at nearby restaurants and only at distant ones. He had visited psychiatrists frequently but never physically harmed her. She appeals to her son that if he is innocent, he should come forward and prove it, but if he is responsible, he must face the consequences.

The station commander stated the boyfriend disappeared on April 30 at 4:30 PM, approximately when the victim likely died. The couple entered the condominium on April 29 in the afternoon, and on April 30 the boyfriend left alone. The parents were unable to be reached for further comment.

Two wild elephants from Thab Lan National Park attacked and killed a volunteer park ranger during a surveillance mission in the area. Officials believe a barking dog alerted the sleeping elephants, causing them to chase down and fatally attack the ranger before he could escape.

At 9:40 PM on May 2, 2025, Yosawat Thiersawat, director of the Protected Areas Management Office 1 (Prachuap Khiri Khan), received a report from Prawatsart Chanthep, head of Thab Lan National Park, that at approximately 6:00 PM, a rapid response team monitoring and managing wild elephants in the Thung Phi area reported a tragic incident. A volunteer park ranger and elephant management officer was killed by elephants while performing his duties.

Following the report, Somjai Buddhaseana, district officer of Nadi, along with Officer Alongkorn Phukhama from Nadi Police Station and rescue personnel from the Satchala Buddhism Rescue Foundation (Kabinburi District), rushed to inspect the scene at coordinates 47P 816884E 1562201N in the Khlong Din Daeng area, Thung Phi Subdistrict, Nadi District, Prachuap Khiri Khan Province.

At the scene, located in a bamboo forest along the edge of a national forest reserve adjacent to a rubber plantation, officials found the body of Tirichai Gamsun, 53 years old, a volunteer national park ranger (VNPK), lying supine with severely deformed arms and legs from blunt force trauma. Numerous elephant footprints surrounded the area, and nearby officials found a shoulder bag, radio, hat, and two water bottles belonging to the victim.

When questioned, Sompon Basala, 43, the victim's wife, tearfully recounted that her husband had left to tap rubber in the morning and had not returned by 3:00 PM. Concerned and noting he hadn't eaten breakfast, she went to search the rubber plantation and discovered around 4:00 PM that her husband had been killed by elephants. She immediately notified neighbors and authorities.

The Thung Phi elephant patrol unit analyzed evidence from the scene, finding sleeping areas of two wild elephants. They determined that before the incident, the victim had been surveying elephant tracks as part of his duties, accompanied by a dog. When they reached the spot where the elephants were resting, the dog barked aggressively at the elephants, startling and enraging them. The wild elephants charged and viciously attacked Tirichai, ultimately killing him.

The head of Thab Lan National Park expressed condolences to the victim's family and announced the park would expedite assistance and compensation according to the Department of National Parks, Wildlife and Plant Conservation regulations. Officials have instructed rescue personnel to transport the body to Nadi Hospital for autopsy before returning it to the family for religious rites.
