She was one of the most famous faces in Hollywood known as the "blonde bombshell".
But did you know the iconic actress had Scottish ancestry?
As Kim Kardashian wowed in Marilyn Monroe's original dress at the Met Gala and a hit documentary about the icon airs on Netflix, fascination with the starlet is sure to peak.
The Mystery of Marilyn Monroe: The Unheard Tapes aired on Netflix last week and is in the top 10 most watched shows on the channel.
It looks at the conflicting reports around the exact circumstances of where she died through hundreds of recordings.
In addition to the Netflix series, Kim Kardashian also set the red carpet alight when she wore a crystal-embellished gown last seen on Marilyn Monroe sixty years ago when she serenaded the US president John F Kennedy for his birthday.
Marilyn died in August 1962 but there has always been a fascination with her life and death.
Scotland has always has always had a deep love for the star who rose to fame with hit 1950s movies like Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, Seven Year Itch and Some Like it Hot.
And in 2019 it was revealed that she is one of us - through discoveries made of her ancestral roots.
Hundreds of members of Clan Munro heard about her Scottish links during a Clan Gathering in the Highlands at Foulis Castle, near Dingwall.
The clan’s DNA project was started in 2017 and had appealed for Scots clan members to assist with their research into Marilyn's Scots roots.
Marilyn's original name was Norma Jeane Mortenson but her mum was Gladys Monroe and that is where she took her screen name from.
Many American Monroes could be traced back to John Munro, a prisoner of war who was exiled to America after the Battle of Worcester during the English Civil War in 1651.
Because no Munro
