Although Grace Kelly tragically passed away many decades ago, details about the Princess of Monaco’s life still fascinate fans to this day. After all, Kelly will forever be one of the most beautiful and talented women to grace Hollywood.
Luckily for any fans of the actress-turned-royal, author Laurence Leamer recently released his newest book entitled Hitchcock’s Blondes: The Unforgettable Women Behind the Legendary Director’s Dark Obsession. In it, Leamer looks back at Kelly’s life, including the secret love dalliances she had long before her wedding to Prince Rainer III.

In fact, according to an excerpt obtained by Fox News, Kelly once had a serious relationship with a 30-year-old teacher named Don Richardson when she was just a teenager. Despite “seriously” dating, however, Kelly and Richardson’s relationship wasn’t short of its ups and downs.
After introducing him to her parents, for example, her parents said they didn’t approve of him because he was still legally married following his separation from his wife.

Their relationship reached a turning point, however, when Kelly’s reported affairs, with Claudius Charles Phillippe, the banquet manager of the Waldorf Astoria Hotel and millionaire playboy Aly Khan, came to light.

“One evening, Grace invited Richardson over to the apartment . . . As always, they made love,” Leamer writes in the book. “Afterward, she pirouetted before him in one gorgeous gown after another. He had no idea where she’d acquired such outfits.”
Then, after undressing from her gorgeous gowns, Kelly pirouetted naked with only “a gold bracelet laden with emeralds” on her wrist. The item, according to Leamer, struck a chord for Richardson who knew that it must’ve been a gift from Khan.
“[Khan] was famed for his generosity as much as for his sexual prowess,” Leamer adds, noting that the bracelets “were tokens of appreciation.” “With so many lovers, it made sense that, as often as not, he passed out the same gift,” the author continued.
As a result, Richardson reportedly took the bracelet from her wrist, threw it into a fish tank and broke up with Kelly. “Does the bracelet have anything to do with it?” Kelly allegedly asked Richardson at the time. “It has everything to do with it,” Richardson replied.
“Maybe Grace would be crying or wringing her hands in despair,” Leamer writes. “But it was nothing like that. Still nude, she was reaching down into the water to fish out the bracelet.”
Looks like Kelly wasn’t shy about her affairs, or her body for that matter.
