Grace Kelly Autograph Letter Signed on Vacation, Family, and Her Miscarriage ALS signed “Grace,” two pages both sides, 8 x 10.5, Palais de Monaco letterhead, September 22, 1967. Handwritten letter to her friend, Mrs. Arthur (Trudy) H. Kudner, in part: "I wanted to get this off to you in time to wish your baby Happy Birthday but we just came back after a few days on a boat & things are in confusion. We have a new governess for the children and it is a difficult change for Stephanie. The nanny (a wonderful Swiss girl) left to be married and she had been with her literally from the moment of birth (she held my hand during the delivery). Our trip this summer sounds like a bad soap opera. We went through three weeks with one crisis after another. Caroline started off the trip with tonsilitis followed by a mouth infection. Then Albert woke up on the Empress of Canada that we boarded in England with measles. Then in Montreal I lost the baby & the two girls caught the measles. It was really unbelievable. Rainier cancelled the rest of our trip in Canada & Alaska. I took the two measle girls to Ocean City where we spent ten days resting & seeing family. Then we flew to San Francisco to join Rainier & Albert. Then two weeks in Beverly Hills in a heat wave. I was really very fortunate to be in a big city at the time of my miscarriage but it is such a depressing experience and this was the second boy we have lost. It was fun to see so many old friends in California. Some haven't changed a bit while others I had a hard time recognizing. We didn't get to see Bing—who lives mostly in San Francisco now as he was off in Africa. I am so upset to hear about your eye trouble. Can something be done. Do you know of Dr. Berliner in New York. He has a fabulous reputation and is supposed to be wonderful. He & his wife spend their summers here. The head of the American Academy is now Frances Fuller who is Mrs. Worthington Miner. She taught there in my day. One of my cousin's girls is there now. The place has undergone many changes but is still very good. Hope your birthday party for Arthur was a great success. Much love to you all." In fine condition. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope, addressed in Kelly's own hand. "Bing," of course, is Bing Crosby, who was Kelly's co-star in her Academy Award winning film The Country Girl. At the time this letter was written, Princess Caroline was 10, Prince Albert was 9, and Princess Stephanie was 2 years old.
