Grace Kelly
Are you surprised to learn that Grace Kelly had been an actress for only five years or so before she left? She is probably best known for marrying Prince Rainier III. While she had a pretty short career, she made it big thanks to her beauty and elegance. She had to give up acting after being a part of the Monegasque royal family. Instead, she chose to focus on philanthropy and art promotion. Sadly, she died in a horrible car crash after suffering a stroke while behind the wheel. We are glad that her daughter at least survived the collision. To this day, Grace Kelly is known to be the epitome of sophistication and class. We daresay that her legacy lives on to this day!
