Gisèle Pascal

Gisèle Pascal (17 September 1921 – 2 February 2007) was a French actress who also gained attention as a former romantic partner of Rainier III, Prince of Monaco.

Born Gisèle Marie Madeleine Tallone in Cannes, France, she made her film debut in 1942 with a role in L'Arlésienne.

Her relationship with Prince Rainier lasted six years, during which the couple shared a villa in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat. Rainier's sister, Princess Antoinette, Baroness of Massy, hoping to secure the Monaco throne for her own son, circulated false rumors claiming Pascal could not have children. A planned marriage between Pascal and Rainier was ultimately abandoned after a medical examination erroneously concluded she was infertile.

Pascal later wed actor Raymond Pellegrin on 8 October 1955. The couple's daughter, Pascale Pellegrin, was born on 12 September 1962.
