What the public remembers about Grace Kelly is not only her beauty or career achievements, but also the lavish life but lack of freedom of the Princess of Monaco and the tragic d.eath that makes people mourn.

Princess Kelly Grace is a special face among 15 beauties considered Hollywood beauty icons of the 20th century, besides movie stars like Marilyn Monroe, Audrey Hepburn, .. Her acting career. lasted for only 5 years, with about 10 films. But what the public remembers about Grace Kelly is not only her beauty or career achievements, but also the lavish life but lack of freedom of the Princess of Monaco and the tragic d.eath that makes people mourn.

The beautiful lady shines in Hollywood

Right from the time she was born, she lived a luxurious life and was fortunate to receive a decent education. She was born into a rich family when her father was a millionaire and her mother was from a noble family. It was this rich background that gave Kelly Grace a life-record dowry of up to 2 million USD (equivalent to 32 billion VND).

Grace studied at the convent. Ever since she was a c.hild, she had inherited the talent of an artist from her uncle, so she was determined to give up her studies to pursue her passion for cinema. It was for this reason that Grace had a fierce conflict with her biological father. The actress's father said that the profession of an actress is only a little bit more than a prostitute. Even Kelly was nearly rejected by her family when she auditioned at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in New York.

Right from the first audition, the beauty immediately made a strong impression in the eyes of the directors at that time. So despite the disapproval of her parents, Grace Kelly embarked on a film career. With elegant beauty, arrogance, success came to Grace Kelly very quickly. After only 4 years of being in love with cinema, she won an Oscar in the category of Best Actress for her role in the movie "The Country G.irl". Besides, Grace also won the Golden Globe A.ward for her supporting role in the movie "Mogambo". Beautiful appearance, sophisticated fashion sense and impeccable acting ability have quickly promoted Grace Kelly's name to become an infallible beauty monument of Hollywood.

In just 4 short years, Grace Kelly has become the brightest star of the Hollywood movie capital. Pure beauty and acting talent made Grace Kelly be pursued by many people including the top actors of the time. At that time, Kelly's level was comparable to the names of the era like Marilyn Monroe or Elizabeth Taylor. Because of this, it was she who became the idol of countless women across America. Her life was also surrounded by bright lights.

Giving up a illustrious career to be a royal daughter-in-law

In addition to her shining and sublime career, Grace has always maintained a firm stance in her private life. Although other female colleagues still fly high with the love affairs that quickly consume paper and ink from the press, only Grace Kelly is still alone, refusing all subjects who want to get acquainted. In addition, there is another equally important reason, that the famous actress does not have the right to decide her own marriage. When she recalled the night of the Oscars in 1954, Grace shared:

"The feeling of being alone on the awards night in front of a vast, packed audience is terrifying. Never in my life have I felt as alone as on that night."

Grace first met her future husband in 1955, at the Cannes Film Festival (France). The photo recording the fateful meeting between the female star and the Crown Prince of Monaco has appeared on the front pages of a series of famous magazines with the legendary title: The handshake of the beautiful Grace Kelly and the Prince of the Principality. Monica Rainier III. Half a year later, the Crown Prince of Monaco surprised the public when he clearly expressed his views through the move to return to the US to introduce Grace's parents. Needless to say, the parents are overjoyed to have a son-in-law who is so powerful.

The marriage ceremony took place on April 18, 1956. It was also the day Hollywood officially lost a shining star. Grace Kelly is f.orced to make the most heartbreaking decision of her life, to give up her burning love for cinema to take on a much more important and complex role in her life: The Duchess Monaco.

The wedding took place live on television across Europe. From here, the country of Monaco that many people did not know in which corner of the world suddenly became famous. Millions of tourists come here every year thanks to the name of the lovely Princess. People are curious about this place because of the other woman, not her husband or any other reason.

The monumental royal wedding in history with the admirable status of both husband and wife. A dream-like life is drawing in front of the young woman's eyes, but is everything really as pompous as people think?

Cold life in a lavish castle

Once she became the wife of a prince, Grace no longer had the right to do whatever she wanted. As she shouldered the responsibility of a nation, Grace could no longer live her own life. She once shared: "When you become a Hollywood star actor, even though you are a public figure, you still have the right to be yourself in your private life. Here, in this Monaco country, I am not a person. Grace Kelly, I'm just a princess."

The married life between Princess Grace and Prince Rainier III does not have a happy ending like in a fairy tale. The cult of millions of people for Grace gradually aroused in the prince's heart j.ealousy and displeasure. Any movie starring Grace Kelly was banned by Prince Rainier III. When invited to act in 1962, she actively refused to relieve pressure from the people of Monaco.

But Grace's humble attitude did not make her husband feel better. To relieve the frustration in his heart, the prince always tried to sarcastic and mocked his wife in front of a large number of fans. Besides, he also deliberately attended parties not organized by the Prince with an unpleasant attitude in order to ruin the atmosphere. Because of that, the more Grace is loved and idolized by the Monaco people, the more estranged the Prince is, and the worse he treats her.

Tragic d.eath but a happy ending

On September 13, 1982, while bringing their youngest daughter back to the palace, mother and daughter Grace Kelly were involved in a serious car accident. While Stephanie was safe, Grace Kelly was seriously injured. She was taken to Monaco Hospital, but she never regained consciousness.

Monaco officials concluded it was a tragic accident due to Grace having a sudden stroke, but Grace Kelly's family insisted that the Prince's departure had too many shady things. Some people believe that Grace was assassinated by forces who disagreed on economic interests and the way to rule with Prince Rainier III. However, to this day, these accusations remain a secret forever.

After the sudden d.eath of the Prince consort, it was clear that behind the jealous patriarchal face of the Prince of Monaco was a sincere heart for his late wife. Mr. Rainier III never remarried, but lived alone until his last breath. Before he died, he asked to be buried next to his wife so they could be together forever.

Not only a capable actress, Grace Kelly also became an inspiration for women at that time to dress well. The princess's mark can include the famous Hermes Kelly bag, the "century" wedding dress made from 400 meters of fabric and many other unforgettable fashion moments.

Few people know that the popular Hermes Kelly bag was originally just a large bag design with the unfamiliar name Sac à Đépêches. In 1956, the bag began to become a "phenomenon" after the image of Grace Kelly holding the bag in her hand was captured by the press. It wasn't until 1977, when the fashionistas almost forgot the official name of this design, the Hermès fashion house decided to change the name to Kelly Bag. Princess Grace Kelly was one of the first people in the world to have a design named after her. So far, besides the Hermes Birkin bag, the Hermes Kelly Bag is still one of the most popular and sought-after It-bags by fans.

Grace Kelly's fashion style still reflects the characteristics of the homeland of the country of flags. If you pay closer attention, even though she is the princess of Monaco, most of the clothes she wears come from American designers. Besides the elegant style suitable for royal events, Grace Kelly still shows her own personality by choosing clothes that are somewhat liberal and seductive. That's why, the designs chosen by Grace Kelly are always the dream of many American girls. From her hat, gloves, skirt to even her socks, many fashionistas are "hunted". It can be said that the influence of the Princess of Monaco created conditions for the development of designers and apparel brands in the US in the 20th century.
