Thai tennis player Paradorn and beauty queen split
BANGKOK - IT'S game over for retired Thai tennis star Paradorn Srichaphan and
his wife, former Miss Universe Natalie Glebova, who are separating after
three years of marriage.
The couple said in a statement on Thursday that they decided to split last
July because work commitments had kept them apart.
'Over the past few years, responsibilities and work turned our married life
in a different direction. However, we still care for each other and we are
still good friends,' the couple said in the statement issued by their
publicists.
The former No. 9-ranked tennis player and Canadian pageant queen have
launched beauty products, diet supplements and a Bangkok restaurant together.
They said in the statement they planned to continue to do business with one
another.
The pair met at the Thailand Open on the ATP Tour in 2006, a year after
Glebova was crowned Miss Universe. They quickly became one of Bangkok's most
recognisable celebrity couples and were married in September 2007, the year
that Paradorn's tennis career ended due to a wrist injury.
Paradorn's father and former coach, Chanachai Srichaphan, was quoted in Thai
newspapers as saying the couple continued to share the same house but no
longer as husband and wife.
Paradorn's dad puts split down to 'irreconcilable differences'
An inside source confirmed yesterday that the couple, whose separation was
officially announced by their publicist on Thursday, would appear in a
prerecorded episode of the "Tee Sip" (Attend) programme, which will be aired
by Channel 3 on Tuesday at 10pm.
Neither of them could be contacted since Thursday evening, when rumours of
their planned divorce started doing the rounds in cyberspace.
Paradorn yesterday sent a text message to a Ramkhamhaeng University official
saying he would not be available to accept his degree next Friday because he
was going abroad. The tennis star has completed a bachelor's degree in
political science.
Meanwhile, Paradorn's father and former coach Chanachai said the couple had
split up because of irreconcilable differences, adding that they had got
together far too quickly for things to last.
"They had not dated long enough before getting married. However, it was all
up to him. The decision was all his own," Chanachai said.
"I don't find the news worrying, I've been prepared for this," the father
added, dismissing reports that his son's flirtations were the root of all
problems.
"The media just stirred rumours, and Natalie would get upset when she read
the reports. Every man is flirtatious by nature, and because my son is
famous, people like flocking to him. But I don't think that was the reason,"
Chanachai insisted.
Meanwhile, Paradorn's brother Thanakorn said the couple had tried to sort
things out but it was in vain. They just could not get along, he said.
In reality though, their breakup does not come as a surprise to many, because
rumours have been swirling through the grapevine about how fragile their
marriage was to start with. The two kept brushing aside the gossip, but were
rarely seen in social events together recently.
