Remembering Grace Kelly

 

It was 33 years ago today, on Sept. 14, 1982, that Princess Grace of Monaco–better known as Grace Kelly–died.

Just 52-years-old at the time, Kelly had suffered a stroke when she crashed her vehicle and drove off a steep, winding road and down a mountainside. The cause of her death was due to complications resulting from the stroke and numerous other injuries. Her youngest daughter, Princess Stephanie, survived the crash.

Kelly was best known as an actress from the 1950’s and 1960’s and starred in such classics as High Noon, Rear Window, To Catch A Thief, High Society and The Country Girl–in which she won an Academy Award for Best Actress.  🎦  πŸ‘‘

Princess Diana’s Death: 18 Years Later


On Aug. 31, 1997, millions of people all over the world woke up to the news that Princess Diana–alongside her companion Dodi Fayed and their driver Henri Paul–had died as a result of a fatal car crash in Paris, France. An inquest attributed the crash to the grossly negligent driving by Paul, as well as paparazzi chasing their vehicle… just to get a mere photo of the princess and Fayed.

It has been 18 years since that tragic day and many revel on the fact that she would be so proud of her two sons, Prince William and Prince Harry, as well as her two grandchildren, Prince George and Princess Charlotte.

“I like to be a free spirit. Some don’t like that, but that’s the way I am.” ~Princess Diana (July 1, 1961 – Aug. 31, 1997).
