I have read that she regretted and regretted marrying Rainier, that her last 10 years were very sad. Even as a little kid, I thought it odd that a woman who had it all, who was at the top her game would kiss it goodbye and marry a prince and lead a life that would be defined by duty and she would never be able to really have her own life. I cannot imagine doing that and it is doubly weird to me that Grace did not really love Rainier. She said she wanted a man who would not be "Mr. Grace Kelly", but she could have married say, Aristotle Onassis or some other rich man and led an independent life.

So many great pictures! I love the profile pictures.

It must have been hard for Grace to see a career path beyond movies. I guess "princess" seemed like a step up from actress. Too bad it wasn't. The real royalty became American movie stars, but she couldn't have forseen that.

Ari, no, she could have married a nice rich guy her own age. Mind you that didn't work out for Liz Taylor. maybe accent on nice.
 
But Liz never really married money-most of the men didn't have the money she had. I think Grace had too many horrible family issues to sort through to really see things clearly.
