Socialite 'Catwoman' Jocelyn Wildenstein Dies at 84 in Paris
Jan 2, 2025, 12:43 AM
Jocelyn Wildenstein, the Swiss-born socialite known as 'Catwoman' for her extensive plastic surgeries that gave her feline features, has died in Paris at the age of 84. Her partner, fashion designer Lloyd Klein, confirmed that she died peacefully in her sleep on December 31, 2024, due to a pulmonary embolism in her suite at a Parisian hotel. Wildenstein was a prominent figure in international jet-set circles and rose to fame following her high-profile divorce from billionaire art dealer Alec Wildenstein in 1997, during which she reportedly received a $2.5 billion settlement, one of the largest in history. She became famous for her surgically altered appearance aimed at resembling a cat to please her former husband. Despite her dramatic transformation, she denied having undergone plastic surgery. Her death has been reported by multiple international outlets.
