Feeling really bad for Rita now. I had no clue her life was so terrible. Some of those guys sounded awful, not even counting her evil father. That being said, I was shocked that her ex husbands appeared in court to DEFEND her from charges of child neglect. Did not expect that at all.
TheJulianStephens I just mean that Orson cheated on her a bunch and, while things seemed to have ended up alright with the Prince, there was probably a bit of a legal struggle over custody, especially when their daughter was technically a royal. It surprised me they’d go the extra mile to protect her. They weren’t the messiest divorces, but still 🤷♀️
I thought the same thing but also this was back when women were quite literally thought of as only being caregivers and men being SOLELY the sperm donors when it comes to child care so I mean I wouldn’t think it too crazy to assume that they didn’t want the responsibility 🤷🏽♀️
Keren Dela Cruz Also a good point. I was just impressed by Aly in particular, because it seemed like he’d fought for some level of custody of his daughter before (even going so far as to try bribing Rita into raising her in his religion), and this trial could have been the perfect way for him to win back custody if he wanted to. The fact that he defended the mother of his child even though it probably went against his own interests is extremely noble of him. I actually just looked up a bit about their divorce and it got pretty nasty, so his good will to her later on was doubly impressive.
I've read that victims of domestic violence frequently suffer from undiagnosed CTE (the neurological condition boxers and football players get). If Rita was suffering mood swings and bouts of forgetfulness - she might not have had Alzheimers.
It's really good to hear that even after divorce both her ex husbands stood up for her in the court to say she was a good mother. That just doesn't happen often in divorce 😭
@@marille1694 That's not always the reason, while there are cases where the father doesn't want to have anything to do with their child there are also those that can see that taking away their children from their mother would be damaging both emotionally and psychologically. Most settle for shared custody or give the full custody to the mother with the father recieving visitation rights, this is also when they settle on the amount of child support to be paid for the children's expenses. Child Support doesn't allows equal a parent not caring for their child, it can mean that even though the father isn't there they still want to support and provide for them as best they can. Don't forget there are plenty of cases that are the complete opposite where the mother doesn't want the kids while the father does or they realize that their kids would be better off with the father.
The Smithsonian did a series on American dollar princesses. American heiresses who married poor English nobility and saved their estates. Very downton abbey.
From what I've read in some trashy tabloid magazines, a lot of people blamed Stephanie for her mother's death. As if the poor girl wasn't already completely devastated.
Rita Hayworth didn’t have black hair naturally, it was dark auburn. The black coloring was to make her more ethnic, when that didn’t help her career they decided to go red.
Wow, Grace Kelly and Diana had so much in common that it's striking. Both were in unhappy royal marriages with cheating husbands, both are known for their charity work, both were devoted mothers and both died tragically in a car crash.
I think Princess Grace saw right through what Princess Diana was about to experience in her life. Too bad she died in that car crash, she may have been able to guide Diana.
Difference is that Grace Kelly passed away due to a car crash because of crashing to "quite a high" road to bottom due to arguing with her daugther and Diana passed away due to a car crash because of being chased by the paparazzi. Also another difference is that Prince Rainier III didn't divorce with Grace Kelly but Prince Charles did divorce with Diana on 1996.
Tanya Yes I think there was a studied done on this that showed women tend to get into relationships with men similar to their fathers, so if they had a alcoholic abusive father--they tend to get into relationships with men like that.
I adored this. What a clever idea! Would you ever do a video on Consuelo Venderbuilt? She was an absurdly wealthy American heiress who was abused and trained her whole life so her parents could marry her off to English aristocracy. It worked, they got a huge ego boost, and she lived a very sad life.

@@l2516 Ah yes of course those were buccaneers. I had to look into it cause I wasn't sure, but I think I got the name from a series on American Socialites who went to England to marry royalty called "The Buccaneers". It's also based on a novel by the same name. In the series, I think the girls were called buccaneers which is where I got the name. I'm not actually sure if this was what they were actually called though.
We don't know that. There were only two people in the car; one of them is dead and obviously can't say, and I don't think Stephanie publicly said she and her mom were arguing in the car. Please correct me if I'm wrong about Stephanie.
I'm malaysian and in malaysia we have 9 royal family from different states who take turns every 5 years being elected as Yang Di Pertuan Agong (King). So, in malaysia the Sultans will be the head of their states but take turns to be King every 5 years. There are also states that don't have royal family, so they will have governor. At the moment, the King of Malaysia is from the state of Pahang.

@@jellybeantroll9044 yeah, but we're very used to it & I always think it's fascinating, especially when I watch the coronation every 5 year on TV. Because you start to see different royal family from every states during that time & every states have our own traditions😄

The first girl was so beautiful & talented...it’s such a shame that abusive husbands & fathers were more than normal back then & nobody seemed to care enough🤢 also all of their husbands were so ugly & had the AUDACITY to be unfaithful ugh.. the 20th century was so stylish & aesthetically pleasing on the outside but horrifying on the inside 🙈
It's so sad about Rita Hayworth. Seems like every man used her or abused her.😓😓😓 It seems like she never found her happy ending/ Prince Charming... I hope she's in peace and happy in heaven...
😞it’s so sad. She never found happiness, she was just used and abused. She lives on through her movies and is still as well known 80 years later for her talent and beauty.
So excited to watch this! Thank u also for featuring Queen Nzinga. My daughter and I absolutely loved it. I’m so thrilled when I get a notification about a new video. Thank you again for what you do.
Here in Philadelphia we have Kelly Drive named after Grace Kelly's family. Makes sense that's where the boathouses are located and where college teams row. I had no idea her father rowed. I love learning new things about historical figures from my city. Thank you so much for yet another amazing and informative video!
Of the three Grace Kelly was the only one with a true royal title- Rita not so much and Caroline Lee even less. She merely married a Polish aristocrat, she was never a true princess in the same vain as Grace.
I feel so sorry for Caroline Lee. All though her life she was in the shadow of her sister, her marriages failed leaving her without money, her sister, nephew and son all died resulting in another divorce, her sister took her billionaire lover and all though this she was able to stay strong and help everyone around her. Rip
@@faraway-2009 yeah, a damsel in distress trope for an example. They think disney invented it. but no, that trope existed for a thousands long before Disney. Greek mythology for an example with Perseus and Andromeda. Also I did watch a few Disney films when I was kid, it didn’t directly inspired me to become a princess, in fact I never wanted to be a princess at all. Also please don’t get me started with all brainwashing bullshit okay, I’m not brainwashed at all, speaking the truth.
Jackie and Lee had a very complicated relationship. Jackie insisted that she needed Onassis so Lee stepped aside for them. Later, Jackie's will stated that Lee would not inherit any of her wealth "as I have done so much for her already" which sounds like a trashy and petty way to treat a younger sibling who actually helped her when in need
Common dynamic when their is only 2 sisters… the baby ADORES the older sister outwardly, the older sister usually has a much bigger influence on the baby sister’s success than she realizes and becomes embittered.🤷🏽♀️ But when things are bad, they have NO DOUBT their sister is in their corner and wouldn’t want to trade a person to go through the troubles with anyone but their punk ass sister LOL I could be projecting though 🤷🏽♀️🤣🥰
Rita Hayworth’s father taught her what to expect form men and how to be treated by them and she never fully unlearned it. 😞 As an actor, Grace Kelly’s father’s estimation of the profession really hurts my feelings. And yet....and yet...he’s right! 😭
Rita was an incredible actress with such a powerful presence on screen. It's clear to see in films like Gilda and The Lady From Shanghai how she was coming more into her own in that era and asserting herself. It's such a shame that most of the important people in her life seemed to use and/or abuse her. Grace Kelly was the closest thing to American royalty even before she became a princess. Her wedding gown is one of the best dresses I've seen. But her story reminds us that becoming royalty is actually a very gilded cage. That said, I can't imagine the survivor's guilt that Stephanie must have felt. From everything I've heard her children say, despite her unhappy marriage she really did love her children and influenced them greatly. And wow, I honestly didn't know that Lee was involved with Onassis before Jackie. That has to make for awkward family holidays. Still, she lived a very full life to say the least.
Great topic! You give such a perfect snapshot of their lives. I just finished a biography on Rosemary Kennedy - that family is endlessly fascinating to me! Can’t wait for the next part :)
qqq Yes, Rosemary was the next child after JFK. She suffered from mental and physical disabilities and was tightly controlled by her mother and father, until her father forced her into getting a lobotomy, which was botched. She ended up living most of her adult life in a care home barely able to speak hardly ever seeing her family.
Wow! This was jam-packed with information! I had passively heard so many of these names over the years but had NO idea about their connections or stories. I simply cannot wait for the next part - great job and thank you for all of the research!
Lee did not make the film Grey Gardens. She hired the documentary film makers Albert and David Maysles to make a film about her childhood on Long Island, but when she realized that they were focusing the film on her cousins, the Edies, she canceled the project and seized the footage. The Maysles started over and the resulting film was Grey Gardens.
Yes! This is easily my favorite video you've ever made. As an American with an obsession about royalty this one really does it for me can't wait for the next part...also I'm so using this for trivia question at some point
Please Do *Disney Princesses* and their stories! I know your channel revolves around Royals of the world which has kings and queens but It would be nice to see some Disney Princesses and learn their story!
Grace Kelly’s father must still be rolling in his grave for judging her acting career, considering where she ended up as a result 👸 Edit: Never mind. 😕
My great great grandfather was good friends with her father! They went to the same country club, and my great great grandparents went to Grace Kelly’s wedding!
Shia is pronounced SHEE-ah, and Ismaili is is-MAI-lee. I don't know if these two words will ever come up in future videos, but I hope this helps just in case they do.
Loved this video, thank you for doing such a great job on the lives of these American women. I remember many of these women their marriages and deaths, when they happened, but I didn't know all the back story. Thank you.
Really disappointed about Lee Radziwill comments. It seemed like there was more mentioned about Jackie and less about Lee considering this was about American princesses. Lee was the princess and Jackie wasn’t. If there was a story about sisters and their love and rivalry then this would have been excellent.
That’s exactly what I think! Such an awful life yet she’s just as well known today as she was 80 years ago on her prime, she was so talented and beautiful.
Being beautiful didn’t really bring happy ever after . These women especially Rita and Grace were beautiful yet it did not stop their philandering husbands to wander . So very sad .
I was about to write that Stanisław Albrecht Radziwiłł was not a prince, but surprisingly Wikipedia says that he in fact had this title (which doesn't make any sense, since we didn't have monarchy at the time, but I guess they didn't care). Anyway, thanks for educating me! Great video, I didn't know about most of it :D
I've been your avid Filipino viewer since you uploaded "Kings and Queens of England ..." sometime in 2017. Since then, I subscribed to your channel and love every videos you upload. I would like to request a video of the history of the British Line of Aristocracy. Thank you for all the amazing videos.
Wow, I didn't know any of that about Rita Hayward. So sad. Was there any actress from that time period that didn't have a tragic lifestory filled with sexual exploitation & alcohol abuse or a childhood background that didn't contain abuse & neglect? Jeez...
Rita Hayworth, was so beautiful. Sorry, to hear that her father sexually abused her. Gilda is my movie. Her story made me sad. 😭 Grace Kelly is the reason I love "The Kelly Purse 28" she was so elegant. Lee's family had sad lives, but she outlived many of the people that hurt her the most. Still very sad, though!

Americans are pretty obsessed with royalty considering how much we fought against actually having royals...
Classier than the Kardashians or Hiltons at least
Funeral I think us NOT having classier royals was the reason why those two groups are so popular. They are the knock off Gucci’s of the social world.
The Smithsonian did a series on American dollar princesses. American heiresses who married poor English nobility and saved their estates. Very downton abbey.
Elizabeth Pendleton THANK YOU! I was trying to remember that group’s name! 💵 👸
I think we like the idea, but in reality I'm not sure if we'd actually like it lol.
I like how much Rita fought for control of her own career. It couldn’t have been easy.
The last interaction between them being a huge argument must feel horrible to poor Stephanie.
i was thinking about that too so sad right?
From what I've read in some trashy tabloid magazines, a lot of people blamed Stephanie for her mother's death. As if the poor girl wasn't already completely devastated.
Hugs for princess grace's youngest child stephaine 🤗
Nah. She deserves the guilt

Shia is pronounced SHEE-ah, and Ismaili is is-MAI-lee. I don't know if these two words will ever come up in future videos, but I hope this helps just in case they do.
Confession: I watched this for the brief ellipsis about Grey Gardens. Thank you!!
Let’s not forget the Million Dollar Princess’s, like Consuelo Vanderbilt, Consuela Yznaga, Barbara Huton, etc etc
These women just as today are so strong and loving. What an amazing history lesson, I enjoy your narrative video's. Another great job!
: How many times do you want to get married?
Rita: yes…
xD i know
wait, until you heard Elizabeth Taylor's husbands 😁
Loved this video, thank you for doing such a great job on the lives of these American women. I remember many of these women their marriages and deaths, when they happened, but I didn't know all the back story. Thank you.
Really disappointed about Lee Radziwill comments. It seemed like there was more mentioned about Jackie and less about Lee considering this was about American princesses. Lee was the princess and Jackie wasn’t. If there was a story about sisters and their love and rivalry then this would have been excellent.
It makes me so sad to watch Rita’s beautiful smile fade over the years.
I wanted more..can’t wait for part 2😤💕
Thank you for another great video Lindsay!
GILDA!!!!
Thanks to Michael Jackson’s This Is It, I now know who that beauty in the black and white CGI video.
Jackie was beautiful, but an awful sister
I never would've thought of this topic, but it was super interesting! Thanks so much and keep up the good work, Lindsay!
I love your channel so much! Thanks so much for posting such informative and fascinating videos! 😁
man, i really feel bad for Rita :( she had such bad husbands
i know.
You forgot Blair Waldorf!
Oh, god, poor Stephanie. I can't even imagine the guilt of walking away from that wreck. Weirdie, could you do a video on her, please?
This was very depressing. I'm glad my childhood dreams never came true.
I love your videos so much! Thank you for the amazing content!
i clicked so fast LMAO i love your videos 😖
Right!! Such great videos 💞
Oh god they should make a movie about that rita haysworth. 😍🙁
That’s exactly what I think! Such an awful life yet she’s just as well known today as she was 80 years ago on her prime, she was so talented and beautiful.
Jackies iconic suit was American made by Chez Ninon. Chanel sent buttons etc to the US and she was given permission to have their patterns US made.
Well, from the way that First Ladies seem to get this odd ceremonial role as Nation’s Mother, it looks like that’s America’s answer to a Queen Consort
I need a 8 part Netflix series on the life of Rita Heyworth
Wow I didn’t knew Rita was married with a prince before. Whoa
Super interesting and fun topic Lindsay!!! You always make the best of videos!! 🤩. Thank you!!!
Being beautiful didn’t really bring happy ever after . These women especially Rita and Grace were beautiful yet it did not stop their philandering husbands to wander . So very sad .
This is the best one yet
I was about to write that Stanisław Albrecht Radziwiłł was not a prince, but surprisingly Wikipedia says that he in fact had this title (which doesn't make any sense, since we didn't have monarchy at the time, but I guess they didn't care). Anyway, thanks for educating me! Great video, I didn't know about most of it :D
All these beautiful and amazing women getting cheated on and treated so badly my gosh
That was a great video and and and very interesting topic! Can't wait for part 2!
Great video and so many beautiful strong women I'd love you to do a video on the dollar princesses sometime
I've been your avid Filipino viewer since you uploaded "Kings and Queens of England ..." sometime in 2017. Since then, I subscribed to your channel and love every videos you upload. I would like to request a video of the history of the British Line of Aristocracy. Thank you for all the amazing videos.
WOW These women were extremely beautiful 😍😍😍
They all look like traditional princesses. Even into their mature years
Patrick Kennedy was born August 7th 1963, I was born August 7th 2003, 40 years after...woah...
That’s crazy!!
🤭
I was born August 7th 1977 :)
The Patrick you are thinking of was Ted Kennedy's son. John also had a son named Patrick who died very young.
Wow, Rita's life is so sad. The Kennedy Onassis are just insane.
I don't think Americans are any more obsessed with royalty than any other country, and less so than some.
The palm beach pic reminds us that these people were and are just that, normal people.
Loved it😀Can’t wait for part 2!!
Great video on the princesses I can wait for part 2 :)
R.i.p. to both princesses grace and diana!
I assume you left out Lisa Hallaby. QUEEN NOOR OF JORDAN bc she is a queen not a princess.
Her mother was American. She will be in the third video of the series.
@@marijanewernsman6134 outstanding! Can't wait , thank you
Wow, I didn't know any of that about Rita Hayward. So sad. Was there any actress from that time period that didn't have a tragic lifestory filled with sexual exploitation & alcohol abuse or a childhood background that didn't contain abuse & neglect? Jeez...
Can't wait to see you handle "The Woman who was Almost Queen" aka Wallis Simpson!
She was never to be Queen, she was divorced, married to someone else at the time her and Edward met and an American.....please.....horrible woman
I know this might take up alotta your time and you don’t want to do it but. Can you please do a series about Queen Victoria’s Great-Grandchildren?
Rita Hayworth, was so beautiful. Sorry, to hear that her father sexually abused her. Gilda is my movie. Her story made me sad. 😭 Grace Kelly is the reason I love "The Kelly Purse 28" she was so elegant. Lee's family had sad lives, but she outlived many of the people that hurt her the most. Still very sad, though!
Wtf how can Hayworth be accused of neglecting her children if it was her awful mother-in-law that failed to look after them??
That's a whole heaping lot of tragedy for only three women to bear (not including their families, of course), Jesus! :(
I agree. There titles didn't mean much versus all the pain they each endured. Just sad! All three were so beautiful.
Good video but found the repeating lines of the anthem distracting.
Damn Kennedy curse!😑
