This is a FRONT window, not a rear one." ## 1955: Grace Kelly ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/GettyImages-146319315-1589477151.jpg) CANNES, FRANCE - 1955: American actress Grace Kelly waves on a boat in Cannes for the international film festival in April - May ,1955 in Cannes, France.

Now all I have to do is watch and wait." ## 1955: Grace Kelly ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/GettyImages-146317913-1589477143.jpg) CANNES, FRANCE - APRIL: American actress Grace Kelly in Cannes for the international film festival in April 26 - May 10 ,1955 in Cannes, France.

Rumors of romance heve been flying since then. She looks amazing. She was dating Jean Pierre at Cannes in 1955... which is where she met Prince Rainier. Sorry, JP. You have VERY good hair. Adieu. (His second wife, Maria Montez, drowned in their bathtub four years before this. Then he ended up with Marisa Pavan and they were very happy aside from a wee divorce in between their two marriages to each other.) ## 1955 or 1956: Grace Kelly ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/GettyImages-541053327-1589477177.jpg) (Eingeschränkte Rechte für bestimmte redaktionelle Kunden in Deutschland.

Kelly, Grace \*12.11.1929-14.09.1982+Schauspielerin, USAGracia Patricia als Fuerstin von Monaco 1956-1982- mit dem Schauspieler Jean Pierre Aumontbeim Filmfestival in Cannes- 1956 (Photo by ullstein bild/ullstein bild via Getty Images) This caption was written in German, and my German needs work -- as in, from scratch -- but she's with Aumont again here and I don't know if that tracks for 1956 AND she appears to be wearing the same outfit as in the previous slide. So I'm going with, it's 1955 and it was mis-captioned. The end result: Here is her face. It is a fantastic face. ## 1955: Jean Pierre Aumont and Grace Kelly ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/GettyImages-3359379-1589477113.jpg) 12th May 1955: French film star Jean Pierre Aumont (1909 - 2001) and American actress Grace Kelly (1928 - 1982) survey the hors-d'oeuvres at a reception in Cannes. (Photo by Central Press/Getty Images) It's nice to see that even Grace Kelly has a moment of, "Oooh, snacks!" ## 1956: Prince Rainier And Princess Grace ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/GettyImages-146315240-1589477134.jpg) CANNES, FRANCE - NOVEMBER 17: Prince Rainier and Princess Grace after a trip to the United States on board of the 'Constitution' the Prince and the Princesse gave a press conference on board just before they got off in Cannes on November 17, 1956 in Cannes, France. (Photo by Dominique BERRETTY/Gamma-Rapho via Getty Images) This was not during the Cannes Film Festival; it was in November of this year. But since they are technically IN CANNES, I decided to show you her hat. ## 1960: Prince Rainer III and Princess Grace ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/shutterstock_editorial_7371561a-1589477232.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Wehrle/AP/Shutterstock (7371561a) Prince Rainer III, Princess Grace, Grace Kelly Prince Rainer III and Princess Grace arriving at the gala opening the Cannes Film Festival in Cannes, France on Prince Rainer III and Princess Grace, Cannes, France I wish I could see more of this. Rainier kind of looks like a bellhop. ## 1966 ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/static-gofugyourself-com/uploads/2020/05/shutterstock_editorial_1294979h-1589477254.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Reginald Davis Mandatory Credit: Photo by Reginald Davis/Shutterstock (1294979h) Princess Grace at the Cannes Film Festival Ball in Nice, France Monegasque Royals I ALSO wish I could see more of this, but we'll have to settle for what we have. The clutch, the earrings, the embroidery... it's all amazing. ## Festival de Cannes 1968 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/GettyImages-1127781511-1589477195.jpg) La princesse Grace de Monaco arrivant à la soirée d'ouverture du Festival de Cannes, France, le 10 mai 1968\. (Photo by KEYSTONE-FRANCE/Gamma-Rapho via Getty Images) Regal as hell. I also didn't realize that she packed so many movies into such a short span of years, retiring at 26 to marry Rainier. In my mind, she acted longer. I just didn't ever know the dates and details until I had to look it up for this. ## 1972: Kelly and Hitchcock ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/GettyImages-1211367656-1589477205.jpg) Grace Kelly et Alfred Hitchcock posent le 19 mai 1972, lors du Festival de Cannes.

I would be lying to you if I said this was a look I adore. ## 1977: Princess Grace ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/shutterstock_editorial_7371945a-1589477243.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Anonymous/AP/Shutterstock (7371945a) Princess Grace, Grace Kelly Princes Grace of Monaco, herself a former screen star, arrives at the Cannes Film Festival, with the wife of actor David Niven Princess Grace, Cannes, France This is Grace with David Niven's wife -- no name given, but from Wikipedia, I believe it's Hjördis Paulina Tersmeden -- and am not even entirely sure which woman in giant glasses is which. ## 1980: Princess Grace of Monaco ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/GettyImages-115096259-1589477122.jpg) Princess Grace of Monaco faces cameras while she arrives to attend at the 33rd Cannes Film Festival, on May 15, 1980 in Cannes, the tribute to Alfred Hitchcock. AFP PHOTO RAPH GATTI (Photo credit should read RALPH GATTI/AFP via Getty Images) I love photos like this. We may not have had social media, nor iPhones, nor any of the other things that make fandom more invasive and pervasive these days, but BOY people still turned out to see the stars they loved. ## 1955 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/shutterstock_editorial_5886210bl-1589477223.jpg) Editorial use only.

Mostly, I just wanted to end on an aspirational note. A note of hope. SOMEDAY, we, too, will sit like this on a beach again.
