Spain's Duchess of Alba, one of Europe's wealthiest aristocrats, died on Thursday, at the age of 88, after a short illness.
Maria del Rosario Cayetana Alfonsa Victoria Eugenia Francisca Fitz-James Stuart y Silva, known as 'Cayetana', was known for her flamboyant lifestyle and was the world's most titled person, according to the Guinness Book of Records.
The twice-widowed duchess who first married at age 21 in 1947 married her third and last husband, 61-year-old Diez in 2011 amid protests from her children whom she eventually divided her fortune between to silence.
The duchess became popular worldwide after plastic surgery dramatically changed her look. She was survived by her last husband, her six children, nine grandchildren and three great-grandchildren.
