Following the breakup rumors, Thai stars Nine Naphat and Baifern Pimchanok have officially gone their separate ways.
After their trip to Switzerland last May, Nine issued a statement on his Instagram requesting for time to “resolve the problem” and give him time to explain.
A week later, the Thai actor confirmed the news last July 4 in a press conference that he and Baifern had broken up. He stated that they are “taking a step back to being friends,” emphasizing that they parted on good terms.
Nine Baifern have officially broken up and decided to just be friends. Nine admitted that the reason was his inability to balance the relationship between his mother and his girlfriend. #นายณภัทร

“We are not angry at each other, We only have good intentions towards one another…there is no third party for sure. I don’t regret anything that happened. In my heart, she is the best woman,” Nine said.
He also mentioned that he still has much love and respect for her and stated, “Baifern is a very sweet person. Grateful. Always puts other people’s feelings first. I’m lucky to know, be friends, and be friends with each other. It’s a very good time until today we talk sincerely and honestly to each other. I’m really hoping that we’ll be friends again, but we’re still talking.”
Nine admitted that the real reason for their breakup was his inability to balance his relationship with his mother and girlfriend. He recognizes that he could not address the loneliness of his mother while being with his girlfriend at the same time.
“What happened to many people, I feel that in the past, it was my own management, I feel that in the past, it was my own management. If you want to blame someone, blame me because I don’t balance the relationship well. I can’t tell when, but where it happened. Everything is based on love and hope for each other. Some things are not a matter of reason anymore, but if it’s based on love, hope, it’s probably a matter of time,” he further expounded.
Fans took to social media to share their thoughts about the said breakup.
sad bc they just came from week-long switzerland vacation then all of a sudden it’s led to this just bc of his mother’s supposed “loneliness”
but i also believe it’s the best for them
if nine couldn’t protect baifern from his mother, baifern and their rel would only suffer 😢 https://t.co/lZETepNDOc

i feel so bad for both baifern and nine. his mother, sorry to say needs to learn to accept that her son is already a grown up and knows what is best for him. yes, a blessing from a mom is a must but she also needs to learn her boundaries. nine is not a little kid anymore. https://t.co/aWr5rtFNaH

I feel sorry for Nine and all the best for his future. I bet his mom won't let him go even when Nine gets married someday. Poor his future partner will have to deal with such a "complicated" potential mother-in-law. I respect their decision cause it's what's best for Baifern too. https://t.co/U5SiZSeuxC

“If we were a couple and broke up, then what?”
“Who knows if we’d break up or not? Do you know the future?”

Kid should have their right to choose someone they love. They will spend the rest of their life with their partner. Some parents need to learn to respect their kids' decisions. I feel so bad for Nine and Baifern. https://t.co/TKHHXEozpj

Feel bad for both Nine & Baifern but I would rather have Baifern be with someone who’s not a mama’s boy. As for Nine I wish him the best but if his mom keeps having emotional incest with him this will always happen to his future relationship https://t.co/LY697zYsHL
