American film actress Grace Patricia Kelly became Princess of Monaco after marrying Prince Rainier III in April of 1956. Kelly gained stardom during the 1950s Golden Age of Television primarily from her performance in director John Ford's film Mogambo starring Clark Gable and Ava Gardner, which won her a Golden Globe Award and an Academy Award nomination in 1954. Kelly retired from acting at the age of 26 to marry Rainier, and began her duties as Princess of Monaco. As Princess, Grace became a beloved figure both in Monaco and internationally, known for her elegance, philanthropic work, and dedication to the arts. Together, Grace and Rainier had three children: Princess Caroline (born 1957), Prince Albert II (born 1958), and Princess Stéphanie (born 1965). Prince Albert II succeeded his father as the sovereign prince of Monaco in 2005. The family often attracted media attention, blending Hollywood glamour with European royalty, and Princess Grace remained a global icon until her tragic death in a car accident in 1982.
