Once a glamorous socialite of New York, Wildenstein’s striking visage has led to rampant speculation regarding cosmetic surgery, despite her adamant claims of never having gone under the knife. In a touching birthday tribute for her daughter, she looked back at her younger self, sparking questions about identity, beauty, and the shadows cast by fame. What better way to explore the essence of who we are than through the lens of our past selves? Will our instincts guide us towards authenticity or conform to the pressures of looking the part? Let’s delve into the intriguing life of Jocelyn Wildenstein, the enigmatic figure whose story dances between beauty, perception, and those cat-like curiousities! LEARN MORE.
A woman who has been called ‘Catwoman’ due to her facial features shared a picture of how she used to look when she was younger.
Jocelyn Wildenstein was a socialite from New York who has claimed to have never had plastic surgery, shared the picture of herself with her daughter Diane when Diane was still just an infant.
“Happy Birthday to my beautiful daughter Diane Wildenstein,” wrote Wildenstein, who was married to late billionaire Alec Wildensteain, in the post to social media.
Wildenstein, who died in 2024 at the age of 84, was dubbed ‘catwoman’ because her facial features made her appear feline.
Despite her appearance and widespread speculation that she had cosmetic procedures, Wildenstein has previously insisted that she has not actually had any plastic surgery.
Speaking to The Sun, she said: “I haven’t had plastic surgery. I am scared of what can happen, and I don’t like to have something heavy. Sometimes it is a bit heavy and terrible.”
Wildenstein has said that she has also not had fillers, saying: “I never did any fillers. I have some friends who had fillers and were not happy.”
The 82-year-old did say that she has had Botox, but she doesn’t like it.

“I don’t like the Botox. Everyone has a different reaction to it,” she said.
“I have had Botox only twice. I don’t know if I am allergic, but when I had it, it did not go well with me. It was not a good result. My face swelled up. If [other women] want to do it too strong, it doesn’t work well.”
Wildenstein was thrust into the spotlight after he sensational divorce from her husband in 1997, which saw her given informal titles such as ‘Catwoman’ and ‘The Bride of Wildenstein’ in the tabloids.
The divorce would grind on for two years, involving allegations of domestic violence, affairs, and working as an escort, and in 1999 Wildenstein would be awarded $2.5 billion, as well as an annual payment of $100 million over the course of 13 years.
In a strange twist, the judge reportedly stipulated that the settlement money was not to be spent on cosmetic surgery.

Despite her claims that she did not have plastic surgery, Wildenstein said on another occasion during her divorce from her husband that she had repeatedly undergone cosmetic procedures because her ex-husband ‘hates to be with old people.’
Nonetheless, she insisted in an interview with Vanity Fair that some of her more feline features are not the result of this.
“The lynx has perfect eyes,” she said. “If I show you pictures of my grandmother, what you see is these eyes – cat eyes – and high cheekbones.”
Far from avoiding the ‘catwoman’ title, Wildenstein would take the moniker in her stride, having a pet lynx and frequently being spotted wearing clothing in an animal print pattern.
As for her ex-husband’s part, he insisted that the alleged procedures were not at his behest, saying: “I would always find out last. 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.”
