Once a love affair: Princess Grace of Monaco, formerly actress Grace Kelly and David Niven. He was one of Grace Kelly’s old Hollywood friends. Niven and his wife every year made the journey from America especially to visit her. They were present at Monte Carlo for the "Bal à l’Opéra". Monte Carlo 1959.
Princess Grace of Monaco and David Niven, one of her old Hollywood friends, share a smile during the 'Bal à l’Opéra' in Monte Carlo, 1959. Dressed in a sharp tuxedo, Niven leans toward the princess, who wears an elegant off-the-shoulder gown with a corsage and a tiara in her sophisticated updo. Niven and his wife made an annual journey to visit Grace, and this candid photograph captures a moment of genuine warmth between them at the formal, candlelit gala.
