Jocelyn Wildenstein, the socialite known as 'Catwoman' for her extensive cosmetic procedures, passed away peacefully in her sleep on December 31, 2023.
Jocelyn Wildenstein , widely known as ' Catwoman ' due to her extensive cosmetic surgeries, has passed away. Wildenstein died peacefully in her sleep on Tuesday, December 31, while taking a nap, as confirmed by her long-time partner, Lloyd Klein, to People magazine. Klein, a fashion designer, shared memories of Wildenstein during her final moments.
'We had a nice happy hour the same night, and we were getting ready for the new year, and we took a little nap just to look good before getting dressed,' he told the media outlet. Klein revealed that the Swiss socialite died from phlebitis, or thrombophlebitis, a condition causing a blood clot to form and obstruct one or more veins, often in the legs, according to the Mayo Clinic. 'Because of her phlebitis, the legs were very, very swollen, and the blood was blocked, and there was no oxygen in the brain,' Klein said. 'And we were having a nap… when I up, I said, 'Jocelyn, we have to wake up, we have to get dressed,' and she was cold and she was dead.' 'It's very sad. It's extremely sad,' he remarked. 'It's extremely sad to lay down with your other half that I know for 21 years… waiting to celebrate New Year's Eve and to find her cold.' Klein added that his partner's health condition was 'perfect' around the holidays leading up to New Year's Eve. Wildenstein's grandmother also had phlebitis. 'We were at the Ritz two days ago. We were having dinner,' Klein shared. 'Before that, we had come for Fashion Week at Chanel. Everything was good, everything was good.' 'We were at the Ritz. We were having parties. She was in great shape. She was in impeccable health,' he added. 'Two months ago, she attended the Chanel show. Everyone invited us to dinner. Everyone welcomed her with red carpet. Paparazzi were following us. It was the return to Paris. We were at the top of our game'
