(FILES) In this file photo taken on December 5, 1999, Thailand's Crown Prince Maha Vajiralongkorn (L) walks down a flight of stairs on his way to the ceremony marking the 72nd birthday of his father King Bhumibol Adulyadej in Bangkok. - A king married four times with a penchant for piloting jets and lycra-clad bike rides; a shrewd tactician with a hefty fortune and the army's loyalty -- rare snippets from the closely-guarded life of Thailand's King Maha Vajiralongkorn who remains an enigma to his subjects. The 66-year-old heir will be crowned in a lavish royal ceremony this weekend, more than two years after the death of his beloved father King Bhumibol, widely revered in the kingdom as a figure of unity and man of the people.
