“Catwoman” Jocelyn Wildenstein gave her fans a glimpse of her natural beauty over the weekend by sharing a rare throwback photo in honor of her daughter Diane’s birthday.
The 82-year-old Swiss woman looked like a blonde bombshell, lounging on a sofa with Diane – then a baby – sitting on her lap. With her wavy bob hair, Wildenstein looked casual and chic as she gazed into the distance.
“Happy birthday to my beautiful daughter Diane Wildenstein #oljogi #jocelynwildenstein,” she wrote under the old photo.
Jocelyn’s face is unrecognizable from how she looks today, having undergone multiple facelifts, eye lifts, and more. Her transformation eventually earned her the nickname “Catwoman” due to her feline resemblance.
Jocelyn’s post comes after she claimed she was broke because her late ex-husband Alec Wildenstein’s family denied her her $100 million annual divorce settlement.
Needing to earn an income, Jocelyn decided to make a documentary about her life.
“I have a huge problem with my severance pay,” she told The Telegraph last year. “For eight years they’ve cut me off completely.”
Jocelyn rose to fame in the 1990s through her highly publicized divorce from Alec, a famous art dealer, from whom she received the impressive sum of $2.5 billion, which she had to divide annually.
She decided to end her 20-year marriage to Alec when he began to publicly display his extramarital affairs.
“It became too obvious. They were young girls and they went to the same restaurants as us. There was no discretion, nothing,” she told the publication.
Alec died of prostate cancer in 2008 and Jocelyn claimed in 2015 that the family had cut off contact with her, forcing her to file for bankruptcy in 2018.
Her longtime fiancé, French-Canadian designer Lloyd Klein, told the publication that the documentary was “her response” to the public who had criticized her life choices and her cosmetic surgery.
“Jocelyn wants to tell the story in her own voice,” said Klein, 57.
