After the defeat of the Empire of Japan in World War II, Syngman Rhee returned to Korea in October 1945 with the support of the U.S. government; Franziska Donner followed him there a few months later. In March 1948, Rhee was elected first president of South Korea, an office he held until 1960. "Francesca Rhee" was from 1948 to 1960 the first First Lady of South Korea. She appeared at her husband's side in almost all public functions. When the Rhees were forced into exile in 1960, they settled in Hawaii. Franziska Donner cared for her husband after he suffered a stroke and until his death on July 19, 1965. She then returned to Austria.
