She is a sports lover

Despite her delicate appearance, Armstrong is fond of a multitude of sports and outdoor activities. From archery and rock-climbing to soccer and tennis, these physical activities speak to her adventurous soul. In her downtime, kick-boxing and swimming are her go-to fitness routines. 

She grew up in different countries

It might come as a shock to some that Thai is not Armstrong’s first language, despite her popularity in Thailand and her reputation as a Thai actress on the rise. Her father is British while her mother is Thai. Like a lot of individuals with a mixed heritage, she moved from country to country because of her parents’ work. 

Armstrong spent most of her childhood outside of Thailand. The 22-year-old has already studied in Australia, Thailand, and New Zealand. Over the years, she has overcome the struggles of feeling a sense of belonging and improving her Thai fluency. Everytime she receives a Thai script, she makes sure to be extra studious to get the delivery of the lines right. For the time being, she is pursuing an online degree in Law with Criminology and Psychology at the University of Essex, UK.

She is actually an introvert 

All the travelling with her family and being a celebrity has given Armstrong the privilege of meeting people from all around the world. However, out of the spotlight, she is actually an introvert like a lot of us. Armstrong has admitted that she is quieter in private, and prefers keeping things to herself. We get it. Sometimes, we all do want to put on our headphones to escape from the overwhelming world like she does.

She is the CEO of her own brand 

If you look on Armstrong’s Instagram @beccca, you would find her bio is tagged with a page of a clothing store @cielor.store. Cielor, is in fact, her own fashion brand. Dedicated to support those affected by the dreadful earthquakes in March, the brand’s latest campaign for the summer collection would be donating 30 percent of their proceeds to GlobalGiving's Myanmar and Thailand Earthquake Relief Fund. Cielor is more than a brand, but also an extension of Armstrong’s personality — bold, sophisticated, and always ahead of the curve. 

She is passionate about music

After participating on Thailand’s Got Talent at 13, Armstrong has never hidden her passion in music. Connie Talbot, Taylor Swift, and Olivia Rodrigo are some of the singers that she looks up to. On December 2024, Becky finally launched her first-ever solo stage birthday concert Queen B at Bangkok. She revealed her plan to write more songs and improve her piano and guitar playing skills. It’s safe to say we can expect to see more from Armstrong in the music industry!
