Jocelyn Wildenstein Busted In Fight With Boyfriend In Latest Spat For Serial Facelift Socialite

Dave Goldiner

By Dave Goldiner November 5, 2017

Jocelyn Wildenstein is at it again.

The socialite dubbed ‘Catwoman’ for her bizarro penchant for plastic surgery was busted along with her much-younger boyfriend after they got into a brawl at their home in the Trump World Tower on Manhattan’s East Side, the New York Post reported.

Wildenstein, 77, started squabbling with pal Lloyd Klein, 50, after someone left a plate on the stove around 1 am Sunday.

By the time police arrived at the posh digs, both of them had bruises from an apparent dust-up.

The couple patched things up after a previous physical scrap in February.

The Swiss-born Wildenstein became a tabloid queen two decades ago for spending millions of dollars on misguided cosmetic surgery to look more “feline.”
