Grace Hightower & Robert De Niro


Robert De Niro is an A-list Hollywood celebrity who is of Irish, Italian, German, French, Dutch, and English descent. On the other hand, his philanthropic wife, Grace Hightower, is of African-American and Blackfoot descent. Born in Mississippi, Grace was a TWA flight attendant before she landed in Paris and moved to London. In 1987, she was working in a restaurant, Mr. Chow, as a hostess when she met Robert. In fact, the first time they met, Grace has no idea who that celebrity was.

They never rushed their relationship, and instead, they dated for ten years before tying the knot. With many Hollywood marriages lasting for only a year, theirs became among the lifelong celebrity marriages we have seen. Grace is a renowned actress, socialite, singer, and philanthropist. As a socialite who never worries about her gas expenses, her 55th birthday party was covered in Vogue Magazine for being extra lavish. Her now-former husband is a great producer known for his collaborations with excellent filmmakers.
