Jocelyn Wildenstein is a Swiss-born American socialite (like Pam Bryant & Brandy Lewis) famous as the Catwoman because of her multiple facial cosmetic surgeries.

The socialite had a fascinating life. She was in various places, including in Paris. Not much is known about his early life and family background, as she has kept it away from the limelight.
Rose To Fame After Doing Surgery
Wildenstein's before-surgery photos show an extensive facial transformation. She began going for facelifts after suspecting that her then-spouse, billionaire Alec Wildenstein, was starting to lose interest in her. So, the socialite chose the cat-like look because the art mogul loved cats.
After multiple procedures, her lips have been enlarged, and her smooth face is now loaded with numerous indentations. Regardless of multiple surgeries, she does not plan to end plastic surgery.

The American socialite began dating in her teens and was once connected to Swiss Cyril Piguet when she was 17 years. After breaking up, Wildenstein began dating Italian-French filmmaker Sergio Gobbi. Not only that, but they moved into his Paris home.

Their relationship got messy after Jocelyn caught Alec with a 19-year-old Russian model in her bedroom at the Wildenstein New York home. Reportedly, Alec also threatened her with a gun. Moreover, their divorce proceedings in 1997 gained ample media attention.
