The life and loves of Grace Kelly by Jane Ellen Wayne
>> Wednesday, 14 May 2008
Apart being famously beautiful, married and end-up living a 'sloppy' monarchy life (and husband), Grace Kelly and Princess Diana share the same mystery; both were said to be killed in well-planned murder, a car-accident. I borrowed this book to get some answers to that, but the writing is more of about the career and the love paths and nothing much on the plot.
Like Diana, Grace also grew her childhood's life unhappily. Her father adore his Olympic-champion brother more than anyone else, Grace grew the 'need-of-attention' personality in her throughout her life. when she was introduced to the hollywood by a close uncle, she had all the attentions and love she need but perhaps, too much of them.
The rest of other writing doesn't interest me much; she hopped acting from one movie to another, hit the box-offices, falled in love from one actor to another, so on and so forth.
the interesting part came later when she married the prince of monaco whom she barely knew and met only few times. A devastating monarchy marriage was much predictable, she turns lonely, and with rage, she "swim against the tide". she returned to her acting world, the monarchy was not pleased and the decision fall everything apart. (written inside someone asked, where's monaco anyway?)
She died in a car accident but her daughter survived. During the funeral, people were wondering if the prince was really sad.
somehow I cant relate the story to the onassis faminly, but later I read the Jacqueline Onassis book but didnt really like the contents and never finished the reading.
