Born in 1940 in Switzerland, Jocelyn Perisse had an interesting life full of romance, excitement, and controversy.

She was enthralled with her beauty, intellect, and personality from a young age.

Tycoon Alec Wildenstein and his wife, Ol Yogi, settled on the African ranch and had two children.

It was all very fairy tale beginnings.

However, their seemingly perfect existence soon began to show cracks. Jocelyn made extraordinary efforts to change her look to resemble Alec’s favorite animal, a lioness, after learning of his adultery. Alec was initially intrigued by her, but their marriage ended in a public divorce in 1999.

Jocelyn continued her metamorphosis after inheriting a sizable amount of wealth, but she was prohibited from using it for plastic surgery, and as a result, she faced public disapproval and financial devastation.

She maintained her unapologetic identity despite her unusual looks, saying that better cosmetic care and her age were the causes of her appearance.
Jocelyn has maintained a quiet profile in recent years, making occasional appearances with her lover, Lloyd Klein. She made a sensation when she showed up at the Balenciaga show in 2022, even though cosmetics artist Joseph Renz gave her a makeover.

Nonetheless, it’s clear that Jocelyn is confident in her personality and has no regrets about her decisions.

In the end, Jocelyn’s tale serves as an example of tenacity and originality, demonstrating that genuine beauty comes from accepting oneself.
