Jocelyn, 62, is nicknamed Cat Woman due to her shocking surgically-enhanced features which were reportedly inspired by a love of exotic wild cats.

The ex-wife of billionaire art dealer Alec Wildenstein, began altering her face to appear more feline when she feared her husband was losing interest in her.

Jocelyn underwent at least seven facelifts and drastic eye reconstruction surgery and received collagen injections to her lips, cheeks and chin.

Husband Alec was said to scream in horror when he saw her despite her spending £2million on altering her looks.

After finding her husband in the marital bed with a 19-year-old Russian model, she divorced him and was awarded millions of dollars.

Alec died of cancer in February this year.

Despite her unusual appearance, Jocelyn has found love again with designer Lloyd Klein.
