WOODY TALK:<\/strong> \u201cOh Pakjira\u201d<\/strong> opens up tearfully about her decision to separate. What was the most heartbreaking thing? She shares her experience of the transition in her marriage, making decisions based on reason rather than emotion, and co-parenting despite the change in their status. She also discusses lessons learned in self-care, coping with social pressure, starting a new life as a mother with stability, sacrificing for her children’s happiness, leaving home to protect them, and regaining her figure and health as she approaches 50 \u2013 a woman who loves herself more. <\/p>\n\n

Two or three years ago, when filming a show, Oh said she didn’t know what to do about her figure and that it seemed hopeless.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Ooh Pakjira:<\/strong> Honestly, I’m not that serious about my figure, but when people in the industry comment on it, they’re probably concerned and want me to be thinner and prettier. People have expectations, but I love to eat and I love to go out. And I don’t get any work because I’m a full-time mom, so I don’t really care that much.<\/p>\n\n

Do you see yourself today as more mature than you were 10 years ago? How have you grown?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

O Pakjira:<\/strong> I would say that if you go back to the day when I was a kid who wanted money, I would do anything for money. Today, it’s not like that anymore. Today, I feel like I’ve been around for a long time. The industry has to change. We have to get older, we have to have families. I dreamed that this would be the life I’ve come beyond my wildest dreams. I have a cute child, a family. It’s like my mindset was fixed, that it was just about family. I even gave my siblings instructions because before, I raised them, sent them to study abroad, and I put a heads-up on them: “If you don’t do well, if you don’t study hard, I have children now, and you’re finished.” I always told them to take care of themselves, learn to work, study. I would give them these instructions beforehand because before, I took care of them full-time. I would tell them, “I have children now, everything is over. My life is my children.” And it turned out that way. We have my wonderful daughter, Saen Dee. Everything is perfect about her. Nowadays, people ask me on LINE if I’m free today, and I say, “I have to look after my daughter.” Everyone says, “Saen Dee is 13 now!” (laughs) But nowadays, when my daughter says, “Mom wants you to pick me up,” it’s just not okay. We still sleep together. Who says that children don’t need mom anymore? That I’ll drop them off and send them away? No, not anymore. We still hug and embrace each other. I go up to her and say, “Saen Dee, aren’t you ashamed that Mom dropped you off?” Saendee said it’s okay.<\/p>\n\n

What about your child makes you see a changed version of yourself?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Ooh Pakjira:<\/strong> I lacked something too. Like, when I was 15, I started working, earning money, and supporting my whole family. No one in my family has a job. Every day we don’t have a choice; we just work, work, work (tears well up). My parents, my siblings, we’ve always supported them. And I feel like I’ve never received anything. One day I came into the entertainment industry, became a host, and I still feel like I lack knowledge. If I had the chance, I should learn another language. Or like with love, I’m sensitive because I’ve never received anything; I always give to others first. My father was like this, my mother was like this. Every day it’s about money, it’s about the house we have to earn. We have to rent a house, we have to rent an apartment for 3,500 baht, but we want our parents to live better places, renting for 10,000 baht for them. We save money every day, eat meals on set, until one day we bought a house for 2 million baht. One day I have children. I will never let my children lack anything. I don’t know if it’s right or not, but I will never. <\/p>\n\n

The bad thing is, some people might have jobs, but my dad doesn’t, and my mom is a housewife. So we felt like we couldn’t rely on anyone. Once, I was sick and hospitalized, and nobody could take me out because we didn’t have any money. I had to borrow from a guy I knew when I was younger \u2013 not really a boyfriend, maybe just a guy who liked me \u2013 who would pick me up because we had no money. Looking back, so many people have been kind to us. Like the producers, they didn’t have to choose me; I had continuous work. There was so much work back then. It’s like heaven saw that I was destined to take care of this family. Otherwise, our family would have been sleeping on the streets. I couldn’t even imagine what I would have done at the age of 15 with that much knowledge. I feel like as I grew up, I gained a sense of self-importance, that I had done my best, and done better than anyone else could ever appreciate. And I feel like some people would never experience what I did.<\/p>\n\n

Saendee feels fulfilled and never lacks love.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Ooh Pakjira:<\/strong> Yes, Saen Dee is full of love. His father loves Saen Dee very much. Even now, we talk about our son. He truly loves him so much. We even hope he continues to love him like that, because we will never change. And we don’t want any more children. We feel a little sorry for Beer (his new girlfriend), because she won’t get to have our child. (laughs)<\/p>\n\n

I talked to Beer about this and what we’re going to do.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Oh Pakjira:<\/strong> Speaking from the beginning of our relationship, I was the one who planned everything. That’s why I say that since my life became like this, I even chose the father of my child. I believed that P’Fiat could be the father of my child, and I would never regret it because I made the choice. After that, it was like my life was completely changed; this book is closed. I’m with this family. It’s like all I see and hear is this family. Fiat is such a good person. Then one day, we changed our status, and we still wondered what we were going to do. We talked about how to make sure he’s in the best possible environment, one that he lacks nothing.<\/p>\n\n

How would you tell your child this, because some people might feel they don’t want their child to be sad about this?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Oh Pakjira:<\/strong> To be honest, because at that time, Saen Dee was about 10 years old, P’Fiat might have thought that way. And we thought, what can we do? So we told her directly that her parents were separating. But nowadays, with the internet, they teach children about it. We talked about it gradually, but we didn’t pressure her, because we still went to that house all the time. The doctor said that the environment that would prevent the child from feeling the biggest change is the home. If we can do it, for any family that is about to separate, the best thing is that the child shouldn’t move anywhere. They shouldn’t be with their mother for 3 days and their father for 2 days or anything like that. Honestly, if they can stay where they are, we thought it would be us. Because we came here with nothing, it’s better to leave. (crying) We felt that it was better to endure the pain of leaving for our child because P’Fiat had a more stable job than us.<\/p>\n\n

How many years have passed?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Ooh Pakjira: “<\/strong> Three years. Having Beer in my life is great, like having new flowers; it’s uplifting. Beer has brought positive energy into my life. Before this, I wasn’t sure what he was up to, but I didn’t think I’d remarry or start a new family. We met through a connection, not through an dating app or anything. Because I’m a celebrity, I always thought I wouldn’t have a new family. But after we started dating, I felt like he was a source of energy, encouragement, and support, both mentally and emotionally. Sometimes when I feel down, like thinking about my child, he’s still there, but I feel sad because he used to be there. He’ll change the subject. Even now, he’s never complained about me spending too many days with the child. If he posts pictures of me late at night, around midnight or 1 AM, because I have to check in the morning to drop the child off at school, and he posts on IG saying he misses me, I know he wasn’t with me the night before. He can only be dramatic to that extent. He can’t say anything else. Even when I’m strong and say I don’t want children, that I want us to be just the two of us, I told him from the beginning that we wouldn’t have children.” And I told him from the beginning of our relationship that if he really wanted to have children, he should break up with O and find someone else who could potentially have children besides me, because I really didn’t want any. He said, “No, suit yourself,” because if he wanted children, he wanted them with O. He said, “I’m not a great mother, I’m tired. I just want to grow old together, hold hands, and talk things out.”<\/p>\n\n

Heaven sent beer to Oh!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Oh Pakjira:<\/strong> It’s true, it really has to be a blessing. Because there’s no way that someone over 40 would be a widow. We always thought, “Where would I find a man like that? Everyone wants to have their own children.” We’re always grateful to him for coming into our lives.<\/p>\n\n

Looking back to when you started taking better care of your health, your body, and loving yourself more, what did you notice back then that you didn’t even realize?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Ooh Pakjira:<\/strong> Well, clothes fit me better now. Looking back, I honestly didn’t think much about it. But today, is it better? Absolutely, because of my health, my ability to walk, and my appearance. First of all, appearance. Of course, when I was heavier, some people might have criticized me, but because I was a celebrity, people noticed. Now, when people see me like this, they just say, “Don’t go back to being fat again.” The reason I lost weight is because of the people who loved me. I feel like Beer once told me that whether I was fat or thin, he never really cared because he saw me when I wasn’t pretty anymore, when I was overweight. But everyone says, “Ooh, you used to have such a good figure!” I was like, “I can do it! I’ll show you!” Then, out of nowhere, P’ Pek called me and dug up my past, saying, “Ooh, you used to be so beautiful, and you had such a good figure! You should try to get back in shape again!”<\/p>\n\n

She was once ranked among FHM’s 100 hottest women. When people say she was very beautiful back then, how would she feel now?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Oh Pakjira:<\/strong> I didn’t really think about it at all, because like I said, you have to get older. My child is growing up right before my eyes, and I feel like I’m a mother, and I have the right to gain weight (laughs). Back then, I was very thin. When I entered the industry, I weighed 48 kg and was 170 cm tall. I was a model, a fashionista. And today, I’ve been in the industry for 30 years, so I have the right to gain weight; I’ve always thought like that. P’ Pek wanted me to lose weight, to become more beautiful. He was well-intentioned and wanted me to feel more confident in myself, like giving me work. Now I’m 49, almost 50, and it’s hard to lose weight, so I have a solution. Before, I weighed 78 kg, and now I weigh 58 kg.<\/p>\n\n
