Some people say that there are two queens in the Hollywood movie kingdom: one is Grace Kelly, she is a noble queen; the other is Marilyn Monroe, she is a vulgar queen. You will never forget Grace in the . Every time she plays, she is so amazing. Her taste is undeniable. Hermes’ KELLY BAG is a good proof.
Grace is pure and elegant, and her father is an Olympic champion. Rich man, she has only made 11 films, but she has been nominated for Oscars twice. After one time, she is the princess of Monaco. (Speaking of this princess, many people do not understand whether she will eventually become a queen, in fact, Monaco is a duchy of France. The king of the duchy can only be called a prince or a grand prince, and Grace is the de facto queen. In name, she can only be a princess). I
have never understood why Grace would marry that man. Many people think that this is a perfect Cinderella story, but in fact, Monaco turned out to be just a small dot on the world map. There are not many people who know that this small principality with an area of ​​only 1.5 square kilometers and a population of only 30,000 or 40,000 , But since Hollywood star Grace Kelly married Prince Rainier and became Princess of Monaco, this small Mediterranean country in southeastern France finally has another place to boast to the world outside of Monte Carlo. Even Grace's father paid Monaco a million-dollar dowry for this marriage. Therefore, it was not that Monaco made Grace, but Grace made the little kingdom that was originally unknown.
Grace married into After Monaco, this small country has become a gathering place for all kinds of stars overnight, especially the Rose Ball held in March every year, and it is also a social salon where European celebrities compete to attend. I think the marriage of Grace and Rainier is just A successful match between fashion and politics, they each got what they got from it. As for love, whether there is or not, is a mystery. It is also a mystery, and the cause of Grace's death.
On September 13, 1982, Grace and her second daughter were driving through a U-shaped turn, and they turned into a deep ditch by the side of the road. There have been various speculations about this incident for a long time. Some people think that she let the two The daughter drove illegally, which led to this disaster-which made the second princess Stephanie live under great pressure for a long time; another more terrifying statement is entirely Hitchcock's story frame: the data shows, After being forced to stop, Grace Kelly fell into extreme emptiness and pain for a long time. In 1982, desperate Grace joined an organization called the Sun Temple and paid 20 million Swiss francs. Since then, this cult has kept asking her for cash. When Grace finally woke up and ordered them to return the money they swindled, and threatened to disclose their behavior to the outside world if they did not return the money to her , Disaster struck. On September 13, 1982, Grace drove an off-road vehicle and took the second princess Stephanie for a ride. When the car went through a U-shaped turn, it suddenly fell into a deep ditch on the roadside. Coincidentally, this The deep ditch is the site of the Temple of the Sun in France. After the incident, the French police received a warning, threatening them not to intervene in the incident. Therefore, the French police transferred the car to it a few minutes later without any investigation. Within Monaco. What is even more strange is that after Grace was taken to a Monaco hospital, the doctor did not take any rescue measures for her. Instead, she was taken to another hospital after a delay of several hours. 8 hours Later, the doctor informed the king that the princess was helpless.
Many people connected this car accident with Diana's car accident in the future. What I thought of was another woman, Queen Elizabeth of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, which is commonly known as Princess Sissi. After her son, Crown Prince Rudolph and her lover both committed suicide after eloped, Elizabeth couldn't stand the shock, wandering around in black clothes and driving a black carriage all day, and was eventually stabbed to death in a different place.
It seems that she is really frustrated. Well, Grace, Diana, and Princess Sissi, behind one story after another with a fairy-tale appearance, are all terrible truths.
