On September 25, 1952, Audrey Hepburn had just finished filming the movie "Roman Holiday" and flew back to London in Rome to prepare for her wedding with her fiancé Hansen. However, the moment she got off the plane, she suddenly received a call from Miller's assistant, asking her to rush to New York. When she returned to the UK again, Audrey immediately announced the cancellation of the wedding.
This sudden news of the wedding cancellation caused an uproar in the outside world. Audrey explained that although she desperately desires a perfectly happy family, she believes that the time is not ripe and she is not ready to enter into a "lifelong contract" with someone.
Audrey Hepburn was born on May 4, 1929 in Brussels, Belgium, her mother, Ella van Hermstra, a descendant of the Dutch royal family, and her father, Roston, a loafer, laid-back man without a sense of responsibility. Roston married Ella only to seek material security and had no sense of responsibility for the family.
Father Roston came to work for a British insurance company in Brussels, Belgium through Ella's father's connections, and at first, their life was relatively stable. However, it was not long before Roston's irresponsible and hedonistic nature became apparent. To make matters worse, Roston was discovered to be a Nazi supporter and persuaded Ella to support him with her possessions.
As Ella and Roston's relationship deteriorates, their quarrels often terrify young Audrey, who often hides under the table and is afraid to stand up. Finally, when Audrey was 6 years old, at the end of May 1935, Roston suddenly left Ella and Audrey without warning. Although she often witnesses her parents arguing, Audrey is very eager for her father's love and often asks her mother if her father no longer loves her. The mother decided to return to the Netherlands with Audrey, and they lived relatively happily in the days leading up to the war.
However, after the outbreak of World War II, the Ella family's property was looted, and Ella became the breadwinner of the entire family, living in abject poverty. Despite the pressures of life, Ella still puts Audrey to her best ballet training and teaches her not to feel inferior because of her identity, which she tells is just a piece of baggage
Audrey's mother, Ella, is not only a blood relative, but also her spiritual pillar and life mentor. When Ella learns that Audrey intends to marry Hansen, she advises Audrey to think carefully and not let her daughter repeat her mistakes. Ella also saw the negative news about Hansen, revealing the pain she had inflicted on her father.
On September 25, 1952, Audrey returned to London after filming the movie "Roman Holiday" to prepare for her wedding with Hansen. At the airport, however, she received a call from New York, and Miller's assistant informed her to travel to New York. Audrey stopped and reconsidered her relationship with Hansen. Eventually, Audrey and Hansen quarreled and announced the cancellation of the wedding, officially ending their relationship.
It is difficult to conclude whether Audrey's choice this time is right or wrong. Judging from her experience of three marriages in her life, she longed for the care and love of others, but each marriage brought scars, which may have an indelible relationship with her father's departure.
After canceling her wedding, Audrey returned to the film industry to continue her career. She has won the love of countless audiences with her unique charm and talent. The films she starred in were not only commercially successful, but also won critical acclaim. Audrey's life is not only a road full of glory and glory, but also a journey to fight with her heart. She proved her worth with her talent and hard work, but her heart was never able to completely heal the child who had been hurt.
