Thai actor Foei Patara Eksangkul is no longer single. The rising leading man has officially confirmed his relationship with Earn Arisara, ending weeks of speculation after fans spotted sweet holiday snaps from a seaside trip with friends.
The confirmation came after Foei uploaded a photo featuring Earn Arisara during a New Year getaway, instantly setting social media alight. What started as a simple holiday post quickly turned into a full-blown relationship reveal — and yes, plenty of dramatic “broken heart” reactions followed.
Appearing at an event as the first Friends of Saucony in Thailand, Foei was asked directly about his relationship status. His answer? Clear, short, and slightly shy.
“You can use the word girlfriend,” he said with a smile, admitting he’s still not fully used to discussing his love life publicly after being single for quite some time.

Interestingly, Foei revealed he never planned a formal announcement. According to him, friends had already posted photos from the trip, so he thought, why not? Before uploading anything, he and Earn Arisara had already talked and agreed to be open about their relationship.
The romance is still relatively new, but their connection isn’t. The pair actually met during university days — studying at the same institution, with Earn Arisara being his junior in the same faculty. So while the relationship is fresh, the foundation has been years in the making.
As expected, reactions poured in immediately. But rather than backlash, the overall mood leaned surprisingly supportive.
Here’s how fans responded:
The Playfully Heartbroken
Many female fans joked about being “heartbroken but unable to tell their own boyfriend” or “heartbroken but their boyfriend doesn’t know”. The comments were dramatic in tone but clearly tongue-in-cheek, and Foei admitted he found them adorable.
The Cheerleaders
A large group simply celebrated the news. Comments like “Finally!” and “About time!” dominated timelines, with fans expressing genuine happiness for him stepping into a new chapter.
The Curious Observers
Some netizens focused on details — how long they’ve been together, when it started, and whether spiritual beliefs played a role in the relationship.
On that note, Foei Patara addressed rumours linking his romance to “muu” or spiritual practices. He clarified that belief systems are personal matters and shouldn’t be over-analysed.
For him, this relationship is simply about two people understanding and feeling comfortable with each other. Nothing mystical required.

Despite confirming the relationship, Foei remained reserved about deeper details. When asked what makes Earn Arisara his type, he shyly declined to elaborate, saying he’d rather keep aspects of their relationship between the two of them.
He emphasised that while he appreciates public interest, romance is something he prefers to protect rather than overshare. It’s a clear sign that even as he grows more open, boundaries still matter.
Beyond romance, 2026 is shaping up to be a massive year for Foei.
The actor revealed he’s working intensely because he plans to start building his house this year. With the foundation pillar scheduled to be placed soon, he joked that he needs to accept as much work as possible to fund the project. When asked about the budget, he laughed and admitted, “It hurts,” hinting at the financial reality of construction.
He also teased a hiking trip planned for later this year, proving that even with a busy schedule and a new relationship, he’s not abandoning his passion for the outdoors.
For someone known to be quite private and comfortably single for years, this public confirmation marks a notable shift. Foei Patara stepping forward and openly saying “girlfriend” might sound simple, but for fans who’ve followed his journey, it feels like a milestone.
And judging by the reactions, while some hearts may jokingly claim to be shattered, most people are genuinely rooting for him.
So what do you think about Foei Patara and Earn Arisara going public? Are you part of the playful heartbreak club, or fully on board with this new couple era?
