There are numerous reasons why Becky Armstrong is currently one of Thailand’s most popular and in-demand actresses. Even if you aren’t a fan of Thai dramas, you’ve probably seen or heard of her already at major international events like Paris Fashion Week.
The 23-year-old British-Thai actress is best known for her lead roles with Freen Sarocha in the hit girls’ love (GL) show GAP: The Series in 2022, as well as the GL sci-fi film Uranus 2324 in 2024.

After those successful projects, Becky went on to become an ambassador for major international fashion brands, including Chanel and L’Oréal Paris. She has also been working hard since 2023 to earn her online degree in Law with Criminology and Psychology at the University of Essex in the United Kingdom.
Besides Becky’s achievements in acting, modeling, and academics, fans always look forward to seeing her friendship with various actors and celebrities worldwide. Her naturally bubbly and charming personality has made her one to watch, and it has definitely taken her places.

Becky caught Filipinos’ attention with a special announcement about B New Era, her upcoming solo concert on November 30, 2025. Coincidentally, she has already visited the Philippines over five times and befriended several Filipino celebrities before she even disclosed the news.
If you’re curious about Becky and her bond with Filipino celebrities, here are three times she made headlines for her endearing interactions with them:
BINI’s Aiah Arceta

One of Becky’s special guests at B New Era is none other than Aiah Arceta of BINI. The two have been friends for over a year, and they’ll finally share a full-circle moment at the actress’s solo concert.
Becky and Aiah’s friendship started on social media. Becky shared on a livestream that she was scrolling through TikTok when she came across a solo fan cam of Aiah at one of BINI’s live performances. She immediately thought, “Wow, let’s follow her (Aiah). She’s so pretty and talented.” They followed one another online, and eventually, Becky met Aiah, her family, and even her pet dog during one of her trips to Manila.
Upon learning about Aiah’s guest appearance on B New Era, Becky’s fans, her Angels, started listening to BINI, learning more about the nation’s girl group, and connected with Blooms on X. Becky and Aiah single-handedly united two fandoms and fostered a sense of community among them. We can’t help but feel sentimental over the two women and their cherished interactions.

Filipino Angels couldn’t help but jump for joy as Becky posted a selfie with Liza Soberano on November 3, 2025, at the Chanel Cruise Collection Show in Singapore.
“Gorgeous girl,” Liza commented on Becky’s Instagram post. Joining them at the fashion show were Becky’s fellow Thai actors Baipor Thitiya and Gemini Norawit.

This was a Southeast Asian crossover we didn’t see coming. In 2023, after the success of Mars Ravelo’s Darna, Jane de Leon traveled to Bangkok, Thailand, and had a heart-to-heart talk with Becky and her mother. Even if she had just met them, Jane couldn’t help but share her heartfelt words for her new friends with her followers.
“You’re super nice and accommodating. Your mom is awesome and I love her personality… I appreciate you for opening up. Thanks for the trust. Rest assured that I’m always all ears for you. See you soon again,” Jane wrote on Instagram.
If there’s one thing we can learn from Becky and her special moments with these Filipino artists, it’s that a friend of hers is a friend for life.
