Jocelyn "Jackie" Lane (born 1937) was an actress and model of the 1950s and 1960s. She was married to Prince Alfonso of Hohenlohe-Langenburg.
Lane was born as Jocelyn Olga Bolton in Vienna, Austria, in 1937. She is the youngest daughter of a Russian-born pianist mother, Olga Mironova, and an English father, Briton John Bolton, who worked for an American oil firm; he will later die in a U.S. car crash. She was educated in New Rochelle, New York, in the United States. At the age of 14, she moved to Britain where she received dance training. Her elder sister, Mara Lane, was a well-known British model and actress in the 1950s.
Lane established herself as a popular model in the United Kingdom by the time she was 18, using the pseudonym Jackie Lane. She appeared in several British films beginning in 1955 with a travelogue April in Portugal. As she was confused with another actress named Jackie Lane (known for starring in Doctor Who), when Lane moved to Hollywood in 1964, she began to be credited with her full first name. Her resemblance to Brigitte Bardot was widely remarked upon. She was featured in the September 1966 issue of Playboy magazine.
In 1965, she co-starred with Elvis Presley in Tickle Me and later appeared in several roles in Hollywood films, including as "biker chick" Cathy in Hell's Belles in 1969. She also made guest appearances on American television series. She retired in 1971, having married Prince Alfonso of Hohenlohe-Langenburg in Marbella, Spain, on 3 May 1973.
Lane gave birth to her only child, Princess Arriana Theresa Maria of Hohenlohe-Langenburg, in 1975. In 1985, her marriage to Prince Alfonso ended in a divorce in which she received a million-dollar settlement. She claimed that the sum was "not really fitting for a princess".
