Socialite Jocelyn Wildenstein Reportedly Made A Reality Show Before Her Death

Infamous socialite Jocelyn Wildenstein died on December 31, and a new report suggests she finished filming a reality TV show prior to her death.
Much like President-Elect Donald Trump, Swiss-born Jocelyn was a prominent part of Manhattan's glitterati in the late 1980s and 1990s, forever gracing the pages of New York City tabloids in the pre-internet era.
You could even argue that Jocelyn – whose notoriety stemmed from her unusual facial features and her purported penchant for plastic surgery, which she denied – was a meme before memes.
And if the height of her infamy occurred any later, it feels almost inevitable that Jocelyn would have been a Real Housewives Of New York City personality.
Even without the exposure of reality television, Jocelyn was in the news constantly, and her life and lifestyle are basically a template for the socialites of Bravo today — and like our Housewives faves, she married into immense wealth.
