Americans Who Married Into Royalty

American Royalty:   Little-Known Stories

Today, we finish our fan-favorite presentation series on Americans who married into Royalty.American Royalty

Let’s begin with this story. Did you ever hear the amazing, glamorous story of the lovely American socialite who married the handsome Crown Prince of Monaco? Her dynamic personality and interest in the arts shook up the little country. Your mind probably immediately jumps to Grace Kelly. However, there was another American-born Princess of Monaco! About a half-century before Grace Kelly married Prince Rainier, Alice Heine married Prince Albert I!!

Some of the Americans who married into royalty are tremendously famous, including actresses Rita Hayworth, Grace Kelly, Meghan Markle, and socialite Wallis Simpson. However, as you will find in this surprising and entertaining presentation there some great (if less remembered) American Royalty – Little Known Stories!

Prince Michael ROmanoffFrom the beguiling Baltimore woman who married Napolean’s younger brother to the man who married the last queen of Hawaii; from the American who became Queen Noor of Jordan to the girl who married a Prince of Russia – in Chicago – these are great, but little-known stories of Americans who married into royalty. We will even unravel the mystery of Prince Michael Romanoff, who, for a time, ran the most popular restaurant in Beverley Hills!
