Actresses and their Royal Affairs

Actresses, whether from Bollywood or Hollywood, are like ordinary women when it comes to falling for royal men. Listed are some of the actresses from around the globe who have been romantically involved with men from royal families.

Jacqueline Fernandes - Sheikh Hassan bin Rashid Al Khalifa

Jacqueline Fernandez dated the Bahraini prince for two years before parting ways with him. After carrying forth their long distance relationship for a long time, the couple called it quits over the lady's reported ambitiousness. Irrespective of rumours linking her to the not-so-royal Sajid Khan, it is sad that Jacqueline couldn't be tagged a princess, at least in this lifetime.

Grace Kelly - Rainier III

The woman who has captured the imagination of millions worldwide, lived a fairytale story before it was cut short by a tragic accident. Celebrated American actress and fashion icon Grace Kelly became Princess Grace after her marriage to Ranier III, Prince of Monaco. Despite giving up her acting career post marriage, she played the role of a princess to perfection.

Kareena Kapoor-Saif Ali Khan

Kareena Kapoor dumped her chocolate boy lover for the suave heir apparent to royal houses of Bhopal and Pataudi, Saif Ali Khan. From what Kareena has to say, she and Saif will be tying the knot soon enough which will make her a part of the royal family.

Zsa Zsa Gabor - Frédéric Prinz von Anhalt

American actress, Zsa Zsa Gabor, who passed away recently, found love in the arms of Frédéric Prinz von Anhalt, who was the adopted son of Princess Marie Augusete of Anhalt. Frederic was her ninth husband and they married in 1986 when Gabor was 58 and Frederic was 43. It was probably true love for both of them as the marriage lasted the longest.

Sharmila Tagore - Mansoor Ali Pataudi

Sharmila Tagore's marriage to Nawab Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi was also like a fairytale. While she was a successful Bollywood actress, he was the dashing captain of the Indian cricket team. Their union was magical and many looked up to them in awe throughout years of their marriage.

Florence Brudenell - Prince Harry

The woman who seems to have scored over 'Her Royal Highness' Pippa Middleton with regard to, the exceedingly cute, Prince Harry. Florence is the girl that we saw in 'Love Aaj Kal' opposite Saif Ali Khan. She has been in the news, of late, for being Prince Harry's current love interest. Irrespective of whether this romance stands the test of time or fizzles out is insignificant in comparison to their liaison

Waxed Bollywood Stars at Madame Tussauds

Kareena Kapoor has become the latest Bollywood star to join the brigade of waxed celebs at Madame Tussauds. She will be the only other woman in Bollywood, apart from Aishwarya Rai, to have a wax statue in Madame Tussauds.

Amitabh Bachchan

Amitabh Bachchan was the first Bollywood actor to have a wax statue at Madame Tussauds and seeing the heights he has achieved in his long career, it is not hard to guess why. In fact, Bachchan was the first Asian to have been immortalised in wax. His statues are in London, New York and Hong Kong.

Aishwarya Rai

Aishwarya Rai became the sixth Indian and the second Bollywood celebrity to get the honour in 2004. The statue is dressed in a heavily embroidered red crepe chiffon sari wearing a kundan set. Ash also became the first Indian celebrity to have her wax model displayed at the Madame Tussauds Museum in the historic Times Square in New York.

Shah Rukh Khan

It was in 2007 that a life-size wax statue of Shah Rukh Khan was installed at Madame Tussauds. He followed the footsteps of two of the most recognisable Indian stars at the global front.

Salman Khan

If SRK could have his wax statue made, how could Salman be left behind? The very next year, Salman Khan became the fourth Indian star to have a wax replica of him at Madame Tussauds. Though Salman and Aishwarya could not be together in real life, they will always by each other's side at the British museum.

Hrithik Roshan

Hrithik Roshan was the last Bollywood star to get waxed at the museum. He unveiled his wax statue early this year. The wax replica payed homage to one of his most admired roles viz. 'Dhoom 2'. He is the youngest Indian actor, till date, to have his waxwork at Madame Tussauds.
