Grace Kelly’s Secret Moments

START

Although Old Hollywood legends and royal princesses alike may have been revered for their enviable style and penchant for luxury, they also grappled with troubled upbringings and tumultuous relationships throughout their lifetimes. Delving past the curtain of glamorous celebrity, Secret Moments is a series humanizing the icons of yesterday.

Before Americans saw Meghan Markle ascend to her position as Duchess of Sussex, Grace Kelly lived the princess fantasy when she left the hustle of Hollywood for the riches of royalty. Born in Philadelphia on November 12, 1929, Kelly quickly learned that her destiny was far from her hometown. After moving to New York to attend the American Academy of Dramatic Arts, she soon found work in small television parts before landing her breakout role in High Noon. At the height of her fame, she was one of the “Hitchcock Blondes” and an Academy Award-winner for The Country Girl. After meeting Prince Rainier III of Monaco, the style icon gave up her career and moved to Europe full-time to live as Princess Grace until her untimely death. Always a beacon of glamour and elegance, cinema aficionados and fashion lovers alike continue to reference her contributions often in their work. To honor America’s princess on her birthday, CR remembers some of her most fascinating moments.
