L’Oreal heiress Francoise Bettencourt Meyers achieves a historic milestone as the first woman to reach a $100 billion fortune. Boosted by L’Oréal SA’s record-high shares, she now ranks as the 12th-richest globally, closely trailing Carlos Slim. Despite this feat, her wealth is overshadowed by Bernard Arnault’s $179 billion fortune. Bettencourt Meyers, a private figure at 70, holds a nearly 35% stake in the €241 billion beauty empire. Her sons, directors in the company, contribute to its family-centric leadership. Known for her reclusive lifestyle, she devotes time to playing piano and has authored books on the Bible and Greek gods.
