Career
In 1937. 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.

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 Maine 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, in February 1971.
