Socialite Dubbed ‘Catwoman’ Reveals Her Original Face In Unexpected Throwback Photo

The Swiss socialite could easily have been mistaken for a Bond girl in her younger years.

You’ve probably heard of ‘Catwoman’ before—but not the Batman character.

I’m talking about Jocelyn Wildenstein, the New York socialite who has become almost unrecognizable over the years due to extensive cosmetic procedures.

Recently, she posted a throwback photo on Instagram, showing just how different she used to look.

Despite what seems obvious to most of us, Wildenstein has consistently denied having any plastic surgery.

The 84-year-old Swiss socialite has repeatedly claimed that she has never undergone cosmetic procedures in her life.

However, her ex-husband, billionaire Alec Wildenstein, told a different story back in 1998 during an interview with Vanity Fair about their divorce.

Alec recalled a time when Jocelyn commented on how “baggy” his eyes looked, leading them both to get eye lifts together.

He said: “She was crazy. I would always find out last [about her having plastic surgery].

“She was thinking that she could fix her face like a piece of furniture. Skin does not work that way. But she wouldn’t listen.”

Jocelyn’s divorce from Alec, who was a well-known art dealer, resulted in a massive $2.5 billion settlement.

However, she didn’t receive the entire sum at once.

The court ruled that she would receive $100 million a year, but after Alec passed away in 2008, his family laid claim to his fortune.

Although she continued receiving her share for a time, Alec’s family cut her off in 2015. By 2018, with her finances dwindling, she filed for bankruptcy.

To celebrate her daughter’s birthday, Jocelyn recently posted a surprising throwback photo on Instagram.

The picture shows a young Jocelyn, looking like a blonde bombshell that could easily be mistaken for a Bond girl, cradling her daughter Diane, who is now 45 years old.

The caption read: “Happy Birthday to my beautiful daughter Diane Wildenstein #oljogi #jocelynwildenstein.”

Last June, Wildenstein shared another throwback photo on Instagram, this time from her teenage years.

In the caption, she took a jab at those who have been “photoshopping” her images.

She wrote: “#tbt that’s me #jocelynwildenstein at ballet classes in Switzerland at 15 years old.”

She added: “So maybe you should stop speculating on my image! Press stop! Stop please and stop photoshopping my images because you are all [100 percent] wrong.”

And she didn’t stop there. Jocelyn firmly stated: “Stop posting fake images of me.”
