Grace Kelly Grace Kelly
More than 60 years have passed since she became the princess of Morocco, and even her death in a car accident is an old smell 38 years ago, but she is frozen by light and shadow, and today she still seems to have a different flavor - Grace, which is also her name.
The Hermès Kelly Bag is named after Grace Kelly. Grace Kelly was once a famous Hollywood actress with the same name as Audrey Hepburn, Marilyn Monroe, Elizabeth Taylor and so on.
In Hollywood, although she has a tacit cooperation with the "millions of fans" Clark Gable and Gary Grant, she has never heard a beautiful "scandal"; in Morocco, she not only has a love affair with the prince, but also has two beautiful princesses and a cute prince.
In her love story, there is no seemingly detached husband, no hasty marriage, no hidden French lover, no personal bodyguard who is good at revealing her privacy and making money, if there is only one Cinderella in the world to achieve perfect happiness, it is Grace Kelly.
As written in the fairy tale book, all the evil conspiracies were banished, and the prince and Cinderella lived happily ever after...

Grace Kelly was born on November 12, 1929, to a wealthy family in Philadelphia, USA. Her father was a gold medalist in the rowing event at the 3rd Olympic Games, and after retiring from the military, she started a building materials company from scratch to make a fortune, became a local celebrity and ran for mayor.
Her mother was the first female chair of the University of Pennsylvania's department of physical education. She also has an uncle of playwright, George Kelly, who won a Pulitzer Prize for her play Mrs. Rigg.

Influenced by her uncle and the reason for her poor math scores, Grace Kelly chose to enter the show business after graduating from high school. This decision was strongly opposed by her parents at the time, so at the beginning of her acting career, she needed to rely on part-time advertising models to support herself.
Grace officially graduated from the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in the summer of 1949 and made her debut as a professional actor on June 25, performing her uncle George Kelly's Torchbearer at Buckston Theater. In the summer of the same year, she won a small role in another play in Hope Town, Miss Qianjin.
In 1950, Grace was not yet popular, but she had already begun to appear in stage plays and TV series. Grace starred in more than sixty episodes of the series throughout her acting career. 1950 was also a minor role for Grace in her first film, Fourteen Hours.
Lady Luck didn't make her wait too long. In 1952, at the age of 23, Grace Kelly played the heroine in the Western film "High Noon" in her 3rd year of career, and played a couple with Gary Cooper (the first heroine in her life). The film won four Oscars that year (and in 2006 was named "Best Western" in the top ten genres in American film history).

The following year, Grace played the number two in the movie "Red Dust", and competed with "Hollywood Snowflake" Ava Gardner for the love of the expedition team played by Oscar-winning actor Clark Gable. Grace Kelly received an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actress for the film.
After signing a seven-year contract with MGM Studios, Grace won the favor of director Alfred Hitchcock, starring in three of his films: "Murder on the Telephone" in 1953, "Rear Window" in 1954, and "To Catch a Thief" in 1955.

1955 was Grace's harvest year. During the Cannes Film Festival, Grace was invited by a magazine to take a group of photographs at the royal palace of Monaco, a small principality near Cannes, France, and met Prince Rainier III of Monaco.
Six months later, the two announced their engagement. In the autumn, her image was used in the design of the model. From 1955 to 1956 Grace became a symbol of whiteness, calmness, and nobility (Christina Hogeland wrote in her book Grace Kelly: The Fashion Icon to the Royal Bride: "Including the window of the department store, Grace Kelly's fashion image is everywhere.) ）。

Prince Rainier III made a lifelong dowry with Grace with an emerald-shaped Cartier platinum diamond ring weighing 10.47 carats, and Grace's family gave Monaco a dowry of $2 million ($2 million in the 50s, about 300-400 million yuan now).
On April 18, 1956, the wedding of Grace Kelly and Rainier III took place at the Royal Palace of Monaco.
On the day of the wedding, Grace and Prince Rainier entered the Royal Palace of Monaco. Grace's wedding dress was designed by Hollywood-winning theatrical costume designer Helen Rose, with a 98-yard silk mesh, a 25-size silk taffeta, a long skirt cut from 300-yard lace, and tens of thousands of fish-ovoid pearls bought from the museum. The total cost was about $65,000, which is about the same as the current million dollars.
