The popular trend in the states is to restore celebrity homes and make them into a showcase and tourist trap. I really never considered Grace's children very sentimental, especially Albert (who sold his dad's antique car collection and Napoleon collection) but i would have thought the Pennsylvania winery clan would have had some foresight on this! www.townandcountrymag.com/society/tradition/g642/grace-kelly-philadelphia/

If the family DID buy it, it was the honorable thing to do.

there is on photo of a narrow room with a fireplace. can't tell if it's real or faux but so very close to a sofa. strange. it's funny such a fancy, impressive plaque in 2012 and the place was a mess inside? i will read again. just thrilled that the family took control.

Just another note, sometimes I talk about Monaco and many people (especially young) don't even know where it is. Or they say, "Oh Morocco?" Then i have to show them a map on the computer.
I then mention Grace Kelly and then they finally put it together with "Princess Grace." But it's just weird and a bit sad.

I think she was perfectionist. And she knew people had high expectations ...
You should not forget that every woman copied her. I remember my mother copied her clothes, etc. and a friend of mine her mother wanted to call her Grace at birth. It was forbidden and it became Gracy. Because there were already too many people called Grace ...
She was constantly under pressure. And the photographers followed her everywhere .... I think today many A-list people / royals have organized it better...
But Reginald Davis is entitled to her opinion.

thanks, nice to see! funny that he says Grace flirts. As if all those actors could ignore her beauty ...
when I look at Albert & co and stephanie & co I think they are from another family ... there is nothing of Grace or Ranier there JMO.
