This conversation with Harper\u2019s BAZAAR is not just about love or style, but about a woman discovering the best version of herself. Thai actress and model Urassaya Sperbund, better known as Yaya, begins by sharing her view of family since getting married, her smile and eyes conveying a new sense of energy.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cWhether it\u2019s the family we\u2019re born into or the family we choose, like friends, that hasn\u2019t changed for me. We have to look after and love our family as much as we possibly can. Nothing about that has shifted. Throughout this journey in love, what has given me the most confidence is that I like who I am when I\u2019m with (my husband) Nadech. It\u2019s not just that I love him, but that I love myself when I\u2019m with him.\u201d<\/p>\n\t\t\t

\u201cBeing in this industry, you question yourself a lot: will people be okay with this side of me, or how comfortable am I really being myself? What I feel with Nadech is that he accepts every version of me, which lets me be fully myself. And he seems to genuinely like who I am, which makes me think, okay, I can be like this. It\u2019s a feeling that has built up gradually, and it makes me love myself more when I\u2019m with him. What has allowed this relationship to grow and stay strong to this day is that we\u2019re on the same team. If we hold hands but one of us doesn\u2019t move forward with the other, we end up pulling against each other. What we do well is move forward together.\u201d (smiles)<\/p>\n\n

Yaya continues, smiling bashfully. \u201cI feel like this period of my life is really good, please don\u2019t be too envious. One thing that\u2019s become much clearer since the wedding is that I love Nadech more. That\u2019s it, simply put. I feel like I love my husband so much. Before, work mattered enormously, love mattered a fair amount, and family mattered a great deal too. But now that everything is settled, I can release what I want and pursue my own passions fully, one hundred per cent. Before, I felt held back by so many things, being mindful of this person or that circumstance. But now that I\u2019m married, I can do whatever I want to do. It\u2019s a new chapter, like closing one book and opening another. I feel braver since getting married. Strange, isn\u2019t it?\u201d (laughs)<\/p>\n\n

\u201cPersonally, I feel a new chapter can only begin once the previous one is truly closed. It doesn\u2019t matter how long that takes for each person, but you need to be certain that what\u2019s come before is genuinely finished before you can move forward. If you\u2019re not ready, don\u2019t rush it. Time exists, but there\u2019s no deadline. You can take it slowly, step by step. When it comes to relationships, if I\u2019m not ready, I still feel that being single is better.\u201d<\/p>\n\t\t\t

\u201cTo my mind, neither relationships nor fashion have a fixed formula. What makes both style and relationships fall into place more, the longer they go on, is comfort. I think that\u2019s a universal rule of this world, one that applies equally to fashion and to relationships. A relationship works when you feel at ease, and fashion works best when you feel comfortable and confident in what you\u2019re wearing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n

\u201cPersonally, I don\u2019t have anything fixed when it comes to dressing, it all depends on my mood each day. I\u2019m someone whose feelings shift by the season; one month I might feel cool and edgy, the next I might feel, oh, so sweet and feminine. If one day my children come to me for style advice, I think the most important thing is to keep trying, try every look, every style, and dare to experiment. You might wear something sweet and it works beautifully, or you might wear something edgy and, wow, the aura just takes over. And it\u2019s not limited to clothes either, it extends to hair and make-up too. Try things first, and eventually you\u2019ll know what suits you best.\u201d<\/p>\n\t\t\t

\u201cAfter watching the Louis Vuitton Autumn\/Winter \u201926 show, I turned to the person next to me and said, does anyone want to go hiking with me? (laughs) Get dressed up and go trekking together, because that idea captured exactly what I\u2019d just seen. I want to travel with people who are ready to dress beautifully like that. I feel like being surrounded by great mountains and lush greenery would feel so cool, like stepping into a fantasy world of adventure.\u201d<\/p>\n\n

\u201cIf I had to hashtag my life right now, I suppose it would be something like \u2018Norwegian son-in-law, Khon Kaen daughter-in-law\u2019. Just joking (laughs). Um\u2026 \u2018New Chapter\u2019. And if I wanted to expand on it a little further, like a millennial who loves stringing together long hashtags to explain everything, I\u2019d say \u2018New Chapter\u2019, then hashtag \u2018still a few things I don\u2019t know\u2019, and hashtag \u2018ready to go find out\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n\n
