Answer:

In the Summer of 1954, Grace Kelly was in the French Riviera shooting the movie "To Catch a Thief". During the scene where she is speeding along the Moyen Corniche, she was said to have glanced over at Mediterranean countryside, along the coast, and inquired " "Whose gardens are those"? Screenwriter John Michael Hayes replied, "Prince Grimaldi's". She would not meet the prince until the following year.

In May of 1955, Grace was in Cannes (Cannes is in the tiny Principality of Monaco) for the Cannes Film Festival. She had just finished making "The Country Girl", which was nominated for Best Film at the Cannes Film Festival. She was shooting some publicity photos, and agreed to be photographed with Prince Rainier for the magazine Paris Match. This was their first meeting. Three days later, the Prince proposed.

Grace Kelly was married to Prince Rainier the following April of 1956.

Monaco was one of the locations during the filming of Alfred Hitchcock's "To Catch a Thief." The star of the 1955 film was Cary Grant, who was making his third of four collaborations with the world-famous director. It was Kelly's last Hitchcock film (she also was in "Dial M for Murder!" and "Rear Window") because she became Princess Grace of Monaco in April 1956.

What did grace kellys home look like after she married the prince of Monaco?

Someone responded "BIG."In fact, the princely family's living quarters at the Royal Palace in Monaco were surprisingly small. They were also set up in a long, straight, corridor-like fashion, like train cars hooked together. It was only years later that they had the time and the money (yes, the Prince had fallen on tough times economically before Grace Kelly arrived) to construct an addition to the palace with modern rooms and a large swimming pool.

Is Grace Kelly the first American citizen to become a princess?

I think so. I am not aware of any American woman who married a foreign royal to gain royal status- at the cost of American Citizenship. As Far as I know Grace Kelly was the only one that went this route. Diana Spencer did live in the US for a time long before becoming Princess Diana, but was never a US citizen.
