Jocelyne Wildenstein has hit back at claims she's had plastic surgery.
Despite her Wikipedia page literally stating she's a socialite 'known for her extensive cosmetic surgery' giving her a feline appearance, the 84-year-old has since spoken out emphasizing she'd never gone under the knife.
Jocelyne's marriage to - and later divorce from - billionaire art dealer Alec Wildenstein thrust her into the spotlight.

The pair's divorce was highly publicized, Jocelyne allegedly walking in on her husband to find him in bed with a 21-year-old Russian model at their home in New York.
During their divorce proceedings, the judge even reportedly told her she was banned from getting plastic surgery using money she was awarded from the divorce, People reports.
However, despite the vast contrast in her appearance from when she was younger until now and becoming known as the 'Catwoman' for her feline appearance, Jocelyne maintains she's never had any plastic surgery.
In an interview with The Sun, she stated: "I haven't had plastic surgery."
The socialite argued she's actually 'scared of what can happen' when you go under the knife.
She added she doesn't even 'like the Botox' and has 'only' had it 'twice'.
"Everyone has a different reaction to it," she continued. "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 they [other women] want to do it too strong, it doesn’t work well."
Jocelyne has also denied ever having 'any fillers,' noting 'some friends' of hers have them and 'were not happy' with the end results.
However, she then revealed she has actually had a 'small surgery' but she wouldn't count it as plastic surgery.
Jocelyne said she had a 'light peel' treatment when she was younger which 'prevents the wrinkles later on' and so has continued to have those, but argues she's had 'nothing surgical on the eye'.
However, she continued: "I had on the eyebrow a little lift, on the top of the eyebrow. Each time it is a small rectification. You can do more if you like it, or not if you think it is too much. It’s a small surgery.
"It keeps up a little refreshment in your eye. It’s been quite a while since I had it done though - six or seven years."
Well, while Jocelyne may not count an eyebrow lift as plastic surgery, others might, but potato, potato eh?
