Grace Kelly’s Incredible Life from Old Hollywood Star to Princess

Around the time of The Country Girl, Grace was linked romantically with both William Holden and Bing Crosby. Holden was already part of her personal life, while Crosby reportedly became emotionally attached to her during their time working together.

Later retellings sometimes claim Grace was involved with Crosby, Holden, Clark Gable, and David Niven all during the same production, but those stories mix together different periods and rumors from her Hollywood years. What is clear is that Grace’s private life was becoming increasingly tangled, and one of those relationships soon became serious enough to involve a marriage proposal.
