Jocelyn Wildenstein, known to many as ‘Catwoman’ due to her extreme plastic surgeries, has passed away at the age of 84. The Swiss socialite’s longtime partner, Lloyd Klein, confirmed the news of her death to French outlets AFP and ‘Paris Match.’ Wildenstein gained notoriety for her numerous cosmetic procedures, which gave her a feline-like appearance. Despite the controversy surrounding her altered appearance, Wildenstein remained a fixture in the world of high society.
Throughout her life, Wildenstein was known for her extravagant lifestyle and lavish spending. Her marriage to billionaire art dealer Alec Wildenstein in the 1970s further elevated her status in society. However, it was her drastic cosmetic surgeries that truly captured the public’s attention and earned her the nickname ‘Catwoman.’
Despite the criticism and judgment she faced, Wildenstein continued to live life on her own terms. Her relationship with Klein, a fashion designer, was often in the spotlight, further fueling public interest in her personal life. While her passing marks the end of an era, Wildenstein’s legacy as the original ‘Catwoman’ will undoubtedly live on in the annals of pop culture.
