After yesterday (15 Mar 2026) Mae Jeab Atthapornpim Komonsen the former wife of Surachai Sombatcharoen along with Rocky Surabodin and Ding Kamolchanok appeared on the talk show "Kui Zab Show" discussing issues surrounding Surachai after he introduced his wife Diana, with whom he has been registered for 40 years.
Recently, after watching the entire interview, Surachai Sombatcharoen posted a video sharing his own perspective, striking back at Mae Jeab and expressing anger over the demeaning label of Diana as a “refugee.”
Surachai said that Surabodin was born, but he prefers to call him Mr. Bodin. He doesn’t like using that term at all. He said, “I don’t want to talk about it or curse because I’ve been cursed at a lot. I’m not interested. At this age, Mr. Bodin was born. I remember that day I was singing at Chalermkiat. I didn’t go because I had to work, but it’s okay, he was born.”
He continued, “At that time, I was very stressed because I didn’t want any commitments. But since it happened, it’s okay. Whether he’s my son or not, I don’t know, but I’m okay. She worked nights and went out — I don’t know where. I’m not accusing her of being a night woman. No, you accused Diana of being a ‘refugee,’ but let’s leave that aside for now. I don’t demean you because I understand what you were going through then, but I had to take responsibility. It was stressful.”
Around 1983, Mr. Bodin was born in 1982 and was less than a year old then. I was stressed. I traveled to America. Mae Jeab accused me of wanting a green card. Why would I want that? I’ve lived in England and abroad before. Why would I want to live in America then? I was a singer. You made up stories, saying I was crazy to live in America. America is happy; I wanted to be happy there.
You know, I returned to Thailand every two months, and returned to America every two months, for four years. I went back and forth 4-5 times. You can check my timeline; I have all the passports. From 1983 to 2020-2021, check how many times I traveled. You can see how my relationship with Diana was.
When you say that some foreigner or Iranian belittles Diana as a refugee, what kind of woman are you? You’re creating an image for yourself. Wherever she comes from, she’s human. You stay silent, but others will know if your calmness is real. I’ll tell the truth from my mind; I have no script. I’m not crazy to want a green card.
I had a real relationship with Diana abroad. We really loved each other. I didn’t have to wait two years. Mae Jeab knows what kind of person I am — whether I’m greedy or not. Ask old fans and band leaders how I am. We married in 1985, but I started getting stressed because I didn’t like having responsibilities. Then we had a second and third child, and we were apart for over 10 years until the fourth child.
My duties and responsibilities arose then. I’ve always cared for her. In 2011, during the flood, you’d believe they loved each other very much: Mae Jeab, Mr. Bodin, Ding, Patty, and China. China was fine, working for a foreign company. Patty had a family, no problem. Ding and Mae Jeab moved all their belongings out. I asked, ‘Where are you going? Whose house will remain?’ They said they couldn’t stay and had to leave. It was okay, but I didn’t leave. If you want to go, go. Mr. Bodin left home in the late 1990s after graduating and working at MCOT. That was 15 years ago. Mae Jeab never returned to this house. Am I a fool to sit waiting with a dog for oil prices to drop? I live my life normally.
Whatever people say, I’m still a man who takes responsibility. I created this channel to be happy with Diana and keep memories to look back on.
Mae Jeab left me for nearly 10 years before returning home. We separated in 2011. Someone donated a condo to her, but I investigated and found the man is a student I helped get a scholarship at Bangkokthon University. It’s fine if she wants a relationship. People who are good don’t have affairs, but if someone does, you can’t catch them. If you accuse someone of having an affair, bring evidence.
I feel sad that a woman can be so quiet, so calm, yet boldly say such things. You must bring the truth. How do you contact foreigners? Show proof. Don’t speak to reporters with vague accusations. Diana is Chinese-Thai; her father is Chinese, her mother Thai. If you don’t believe me, I’ll show her passport and ID someday. Don’t accuse her or me of having affairs. From now on, let’s see. The innocent can stand anywhere.
You can lie first, but I will tell the truth. This part is about Mae Jeab’s misdeeds. You don’t have to believe me; ask old fans from that era to learn what kind of woman she is.
Let me tell you. One night, someone invited me to sing in Switzerland with two tickets, so I invited her because we rarely met or went home. She was in her twenties and a bit wild, but she didn’t do anything bad because I was very afraid of damaging the Sombatcharoen name, as my parents taught me to keep our reputation.
When we arrived in Switzerland, Mae Jeab said she met a man who took care of her in England. That night, I socialized with fans while she asked permission to visit this man. I trusted her and let her go.
That night when I returned, I smelled a strange odor, something I never smelled on Mae Jeab before. I wondered if she had an affair. I overthought it, maybe she used a smelly towel. Whatever, I let it go. I still thought she was good, but I didn’t know. She knew the truth. I’m not accusing her, but I had the right to think because the smell was unusual. It seemed like she had contact with someone. She flew back the next day. I kept thinking, but let it be.
While I was with Mae Jeab, I heard rumors she had an affair with a police colonel, though I wasn’t sure of the rank. Someone told me, but I wondered if it was true. Whether true or not, it’s normal. I have no evidence to accuse her, but only heaven and earth know the truth.
Soon, my fans saw Mae Jeab having dinner with a man at Central Rama 2. This is evidence. Witnesses are alive, but will they dare to speak? I believe they will.
