Boyfriend of billionaire 'catwoman' arrested after allegedly assaulting her in her NYC apartment


 Days after she was arrested for assaulting him with her nails, the boyfriend of "catwoman" and billionaire divorcee Jocelyn Wildenstein was arrested Saturday when the wealthy socialite claimed he assaulted her in her ritzy Manhattan apartment.

The NYPD nabbed Lloyd Klein, 49, a few hours after he showed up at Wildenstein’s place to retrieve some personal items about 2:30 a.m., police said.

Wildenstein told cops that Klein roughed her up — allegedly grabbing her and pushing her to the ground.

She refused medical attention, according to police, although she complained of minor injuries to her neck and back and bruising on her arms.


 The socialite also claimed the belt she was wearing broke when Klein pushed her around, police said.

He took a Swiss ID, an iPhone, a cell phone case and a credit card, police said.

Wildenstein said he stormed into her bedroom and removed the possessions without her permission.Klein was arrested around 6 a.m. Sunday at 845 UN Plaza, which they both claim as their place of residence, police said.He was charged with robbery, grand larceny, assault and criminal assault, according to cops.


The troubled couple had lived together until recently.
The 61 year old  received $2.5 billion in the divorce settlement and $100 million each year for 13 years after her divorce from late billionaire arts dealer, Alec Wildenstein.

Wildenstein who met her ex-husband in Kenya where she was a hunter ,is rumoured to have spent $4 million on plastic surgery, apparently done to please her ex-husband, who loved big cats.
He later said that was the beginning of their problems.

She is now said to be worth $500 million.
