The Actress Turned Princess Literally Fell From Grace

Her Parents Would Control Her Love Life

Kelly’s parents weren’t very happy with the young men their daughter was dating. It’s not surprising, though, since she once romanced one of her instructors at the Academy of Dramatic Arts in New York. Their affair started at school, of course, and when she brought him home, everything fell apart.

Kelly’s parents actually put an end to many of her relationships. Kelly’s biographer wrote: “They just did not give Grace any freedom as to what man she would become involved with romantically unless he was exactly what they wanted for her.”
