These people crossed some paths in life: Princess Diana; Jacqueline Kennedy; Grace Kelly.
Oleg Cassini was a European fashion designer. He dated Grace Kelly when she was in the movie business, before she met Prince Rainier of Monaco.
In the fall of 1960, after Jack Kennedy won the presidential election, Mrs. Kennedy asked Cassini's help in designing a wardrobe appropriate for the position of First Lady.
Lady Diana Spencer and movie star Grace Kelly had in common the situation of marrying a prince and thereby becoming a princess.
What else Diana and Grace had in common was that their husbands had the obligatory royal children with them and then continued being what the British call "sex-pests" toward other ladies, leaving their wives humiliated and heartbroken.
Also, Diana's and Grace's situations sound to me like they were similar in that they thought they were marrying a romantic man who loved them, when in reality they were sort of "marrying Duty."
And then they're sort of trapped.
...Being advised, "This is your duty."
