The Late Princess Grace: Pictures and News Part VII - Page 25

Hi All,

This is my first time in the forum and I hope to be an active members as everyone are...I'm currently like the lovestory of Prince Rainier and Grace Kelly very much and therefore, I had order Grace Kelly's autobiography and 2 books about Rainier and Grace. However, I don't think there is Prince Rainier's autobiography at all.

Anyway, I love how their story goes and didn't like the way it ended but I'm so happy to know that Prince Rainier was very devoted to Grace because he didn't remarried and mostly, he always mentioned her whenever there is a tribute or congratulate in order for him. I mean, he's a pretty darn prince charming isn't he?

I'm actually reading Grace by Robert Lacey and I don't know how true it is because I don't like how Lacey mentioned that the Prince was violent (like playing tennis and hitting the ball at Grace...like really? ) anyway and Grace having affair with other young men and particuly the young director that she was cooperative one of the film with? Any one want to clarify on this for me?

Another launch in another city -
Vanity Fair
I wonder if Albert & Charlene may attend a related engagement as they are currently in LA & there appears to be a pre- Oscar link.

Prince Albert and Princess Charlene did attend the event above, pics and information about their visit to the USA can be found here:

Thanks Iceflower. I hadn't connected the launch with the latest pics on the Carlene fashion page, &7 somehow the current events page had completely passed me by! Do you think this means that the nominees for an Oscar all received an item of jewellery in their famous goodie bags?

**iceflower** · #**486** 02-26-2012, 08:00 AM

You are most welcome! I don't know if there's a connection, I'm also not an expert for the Oscar gifts

But as you'll see in the current events thread the couple attends the Oscars for reasons other than that.

For the Oscars itself we have an extra thread in the news section, maybe someone over there knows
more about the gift bags

Princess Grace was included -- rightfully so -- on TIME Magazine's All-Time Top 100 Fashion Icons in Fashion since 1923. The list was revealed today.

What do you guys think about this ? I'm glad that at least, it's an absolute A-lister who can act.

Ironically though, Charlize Theron in the new Vogue U.K. cover is so styled as Grace Kelly.

Charlize gives me more of a Grace Kelly feel yet she also reminds me of a happier Charlene. Perhaps Nicole has more of the cold, distant, allure of Grace.

Me Too I Found Charlize Theron Looks Like Grace Kelly More Than Nicole and Of Course Both So Charming , Thanx For Posting .

Besides being an Oscar winner, Nicole Kidman as Princess Grace is a more inspired casting move than Naomi Watts as Princess Diana in the biographical film currently being made.
