Rare photographs of the king of Thailand's newly anointed consort have been released by the palace, reportedly causing its website to crash.
The images show Sineenat Wongvajirapakdi, 34, piloting a fighter jet, wearing combat fatigues and aiming a weapon on a firing range.
A consort is a title given by a monarch to his or her spouse or companion.
King Maha Vajiralongkorn, 67, bestowed the title on Sineenat in July, two months after his marriage to the queen .
The website hosting the photos went down after receiving high volumes of traffic, according to Reuters news agency.
Her biography has been published alongside the images.
In a statement, Thailand's palace said the king had "ordered the creation of a royal biography" for Sineenat, who is a trained pilot, nurse and bodyguard.
Queen Suthida - a 41-year-old former flight attendant and deputy head of his bodyguard unit - is King Vajiralongkorn's long-term partner and has been seen with him in public for many years.
He ascended to the throne after the death of his father in 2016.
