    Hello Lily. I enjoy your videos but never commented. But this time I feel compelled to do it. I’m 45, lose my dad at 21, lose my mom and older sister at 41. Grief is despairingly painful. I’m thankful I have a loving husband who supports me.
    One thing we did to cope with grief was getting out of the big unsafe city for some peace and quiet. We can now take long walks in the woods whenever I need to clear my head. Most importantly, my faith gives me hope, comfort and grounds me. It’s going to take lots of time for Wat to grieve and this can inevitably affect you and the kids. Maybe reconsider moving back to his hometown near the beach and family and his mom. Speaking from personal experience big cities are fun to visit but not ideal to live and raise kids. Please send my sympathy and sincere condolences to Wat, his mom and family.

    Honest comment straight from my heart .. Dint enjoy your video much today was missing Wat .. I thought for once that you were joking when you said he left in the start to get attention but somewhere I also saw that coming. What made me watch your videos was the fact that I felt you were different .. though I found it a lil' odd in the beginning that you picked and married a simple man from humble origins and you accepted him for who he is and where he comes from .. but then in time you made me believe through your videos that you cared for him enough. I was so touched every time I would see Wat running around doing errands, taking care of the kids and you, getting you your coffee, food, driving you places. I am sure you were the one paying for it all but still he dint have to do all of that but because he loves you and he feels grateful and also he isn't that privileged to show in other ways, that was the only way he felt he could contribute by making you feel important and special.
    I also understand that you want to live your life, travel places do this and that, I am sure more so after getting recognition and fan following from your youtube channel but then I also feel you are changing, I liked and respected you for other reasons not because you make all these fancy food and shopping mall videos.
    Its your life you know better but let me tell you in my professional life I have received my share of fame but it doesn't last long.. there soon would come someone else, some one better, someone making nicer videos, someone genuinely touching lives but in the end family is everything, its all that matters and in Wat's testing times you should have been there by his side. Joy of being around kids would have also helped him heal fast. You know the real worth of people in bad times not in good times. I truly believe in that!
    and by the way just noticed your caption, its misleading! He dint leave you and your three kids .. poor guy don't give him a bad name instead it seems like you left him and are depriving him of his children.

    Hi Lilly. Please take care of your husband, the father of your children during this very sensitive, sad, dark period of his life. He needs love, patience, compassion and empathy. He needs to be near his family and blood relatives to heal. Grief is a very long road. I’m speaking from personal experience.

    I think Wat saw the writing on the wall when you left for a few months with Luke. He was left to take care of the Baby/Leon with Nams help. Nothing wrong with taking a trip...but I often could not fathom leaving the baby Leon for months. I know he was in good hands but I would never have left my child for that long of a period of time just to vacation. I am sure it was wonderful for you to see your family also. I guess it was something you needed to do. It probably renewed something of wanting to go home. Your channel has been very entertaining with seeing all the beautiful hotels and properties. It also seemed like you had a nice family home on the island. The place your living looks more like a family suite at an hotel. I'm sure anyone could get used to it if that was a desire in their heart. I enjoyed watching the simple pleasures of island life. Though I probably don't have the wanderlust you have in traveling. I know this sounds so judgy but you have invited the world into your life on this channel. So many of us will give our thoughts about your family situation. Obviously we have enjoyed what you have presented in the past videos that's why we watch. I do hope with sometime that your family will be reunited for a place of well being and family unity. I know life isn't perfect ...one can hope for the happiness of your family unit. Be Well!

      It was about time Wat picked up some of the slack. Lily has been the main provider and Wat has been totally uninterested in past videos in doing anything for his family! So maybe stop your judgement and look at it from both sides. Lily was exhausting herself from the new baby and constantly putting out content in order to financially support the family. If she needed a break, she can take it and the FATHER can pick up some slack. Now that Wat wants his time away, he can take it. I don’t think people realise how Much responsibility for this family fell solely on Lily! (Thank god for Nam). So for the person saying it’s the “Lily show” … it had to be! Wat didn’t want to really be in videos but he was happy for his wife to be the only financial provider. So she was doing everything she could to make the vlogs work.

      @Jamison Gee, I agree, Wat did not seem happy in Bangkok. Many, many years ago, when I lived in Germany, I remember my German mother-in-law saying, “you cannot uproot and old tree”. She is long gone but those words have stayed with me after 45 years. I think that not only is Wat grieving for his dad but he’s been taken out of his own environment. I’ve been in Bangkok; it’s a huge, metropolitan city, a fast and vibrant city. Wat, being a humble, ex-fisherman living on an island would find city life hard to get accustomed to. I’m thinking he also feels out of sorts being that Lilly is the sole provider for the family. Lilly needed to expand and provide more context to her channel and made the move to Bangkok and it’s understandable. It’s a difficult situation but I hope things will work out for both eventually.
      My Thai daughter-in-law wants to come to America but I have doubts whether she’ll be happy here. Her family are humble villagers living a simple life and she comes from that environment. I’m afraid the culture shock would be too much for her. Not only that but she’ll be coming from a tropical, paradise setting to a dry, desert city in west Texas. 🌞🌵. Life is not easy.

      Hopefully in the funeral memorial service for wat's dad wouldn't have altered Lilly's trust in her religious believe.Wat's dad had been back to God in heaven in lieu of passing away.Wat should be back to have his kids to substitute his dad's lost.Kids still are needing the complete parents to be their paternity and maternity.

    I could tell Wat has not been enjoying Bangkok, it is probably very overwhelming to him after living on a small island. He is such a wonderful father, I can't see him staying away too long! Perhaps a smaller city but larger than Koh Samui is the answer! Praying for a resolution for the family 🤗

    Just an observation, but Wat is a simple guy. He was a fisherman and happy in his surroundings in Koh Samui. Taking him to Bangkok where life is totally different, he is like a fish out of water. He has been taken out of his environment. You may want to think which is more important, your marriage, or having adventures outside of his comfort zone.

TBH when you first said you were moving and never liked island life, I was amazed, you certainly didn't seem to be unhappy? But to move to a city just after Wat had lost his father and friend, maybe it was a little fast? Not critiscising but when you put your life out there, there will be many different opinions. I hope that things work out for you all. X

I am not sure whether there could be more to why he has decided to leave besides what you have shared. Please help him through this dark period of his life, if him leaving you guys for a while is one solution then its ok.I would be very sad if your family fail apart like that. You gave me hope that people can be happy with each other and make marriage work as long as they love each other, respect each other and understand all differences in culture and backgrounds .Your kids are lucky and blessed to have Wat as their dad. He may not have all the education and experiences but he is rich in wisdom and Love which is important to pass on to the children. Few men have got the time for their children and family.Sending my love to your family

What matters is that both are hurt emotionally and they need to get back together to fix it as ADULTS. Put aside negative feelings, hopes and expectation "for the moment", because nothing more count but this matter and the longer is postpone the harder is to fix it.....

    He needs to go home to his preferred home birthplace to grieve!! You can help him by allowing him to freely share his feelings. You don’t have to do anything but listen. For someone like him who’s basically quiet, and being Asian, it will take a lot to get him to start opening up!

    Lily, I have followed you for some time. I was an expat at one time. Lived in Italy.
    Honestly, when I heard that you all were moving, I thought you would be moving close to Wat's Mother. My husband lost his Mom. Men grieve differently. My personal feelings are you all moved to soon. Wat needs time to process his grief.
    In watching your videos. I had noticed the change in Wat's countenance. When you all moved to Bangkok. I'd recommend you go and watch them. You can see an obvious change. I noticed You said YOU needed a change. But what about your husband?! I say this from a place of good intentions. Also, from a place where I was present with my husband with his mother's death. You have to walk a mile in someone's shoes to understand them. I think you are more of a gypsy at heart and like to move. I don't see Wat, as being that way. I'm not a city person myself. I hope that you can reconcile this with your husband.
    I also know people joke more when they are dealing with stress. I don't think you meant it in a wrong way. But Joking about Not having a husband.. it's not a laughing matter. He still is your husband. But he is going through something and you need to be there for him.

There is so much research about this issue and around volunteer tourism with orphans. Also, these children’s faces should be blurred out to protect their privacy.

    Dear Lilly: You have a heart of gold. Teaching your children kindness and giving to others is one of the best lessons you can teach your children. I send my deepest prayers to Watt. When we lose a loved one we all grieve in our own way. Wishing him strength to get through his grief and move forward when he is ready. You and Nam are a great team!! I can certainly see how you both have bonded even closer.
    You are a true warrior Lilly. You always find the light no matter how dark it seems. Big hugs and kisses.💛💛🥰🥰

The children need their father too. maybe a few days alone will help him clear his head . Usually I find a wife and children to be a mans comfort. Being apart from your husband for a long time is not the best option for a marriage. I feel for Wat.

I have left My Husband and Children a couple of times, because of things I was going through Mentally,Spiritually and Physically. It was the worse thing I could do. It brought so much pain and hurt to my family. Many consequences to me! The Lord opened my eyes to things I needed to ask for forgiveness for and repent! Also how I needed to Respect and Be By Husband’s side. So Many things I needed to change in being the Wife and Mom the Lord calls me to be. I have been thinking lately how as Husbands and Wives we need to have Very Selfless Love for One Another. Not having Our Way and Thinking about what we want or the way we think things should go!

How he's is going to fair without his children by his side? Luke and Leon will miss him so much. The both of you want different lives. Lily, gird yourself and be careful.

I am not sure Wat was fully on board as Lilly does have a fairly forceful nature and taking the children away from him for a long period would have had some impact on him saying YES. The blame does not solely lie with Lilly but maybe a little more thought should have been put into it knowing Wats father and friend had passed in such a short time.

    Taking Watt away from his deep roots from where he grew up and have his contacts and habits, so early after his dad passed away was aiming to such result. He needed time to deal with his loss and maybe it was, unintentionally, a bit selfish toward him. Each video at Koh Samui could show how much he needed his freedom to roam around, to be by the sea, to have quality time on the beach with the kids and I think that's where he wanted his kids to grow up as well. I sincerely feel sad for him because in a way, his conscious and heart told him to go back but it meant leave his kids behind, and he probably feels very lonely and cornered in this situation where, no matter what, he looses part of his identity...

      Yes I thought it was horrible the atmosphere there felt uncomfortable too.
      It was no place for Nam or the children and should not have been a theme for a vlog IMO

      Lily why you have this video about your donation to this orphanage but what about $21,000 USD obtained on your Koh Samui ‘Desperate and starving; Koh Samui, Thailand’ since your last charity give out two years ago in Koh Samui totalled only $5,000 USD?
