Karl Lagerfeld’s beloved cat Choupette ‘still waiting for inheritance’ seven years after designer’s death

Seven years after Karl Lagerfeld’s death, his famously pampered cat Choupette has reportedly received none of the inheritance that once fuelled headlines claiming she would become the “world’s richest cat”.

Françoise Caçote, Lagerfeld’s former housekeeper and the woman entrusted with caring for Choupette after the designer’s death in February 2019, told The Atlantic: “I want to be completely transparent: today, we have received absolutely nothing.”
