A British woman jumped naked from the roof of a top Beverly Hills plastic surgeon's clinic after a facelift
A naked woman who jumped to her death from the roof of a Beverly Hills plastic surgery clinic is a British socialite who used to work for Royal jewellers Asprey.
Police spent three hours trying to talk Sandra D’Auriol down from the 15-storey building as she sat with her legs dangling over a ledge last Wednesday.
The 53-year-old mum reportedly had facelift surgery with Brian Novack, a high-priced plastic surgeon to stars such as Demi Moore, last Tuesday just hours before the tragedy.
She was kept overnight in the Camden Medical Arts building in Los Angeles, California, and woke up feeling “agitated and aggressive”.
Medics believes it could have been due to a bad reaction to her anaesthetic.
Avi Rai, a former colleague at the Child Welfare Scheme in Hong Kong where Mrs D’Auriol was a director, confirmed her death.
He said: “It was a tragic incident. It has been a very difficult time for her family. She was British and married with two children.”
According to police and the Los Angeles County Coroner’s Office, Mrs D’Auriol ventured to the top of the CMA building at around 7am last Wednesday.
An eyewitness said: “She sat on the ledge naked, then got up and walked around the edge of the building as if on a tightrope. She sat down again before getting up and jumping off.”
The mum-of-two was married to Yan D’Auriol, a former L’Oreal executive who runs a cosmetics business from Hong Kong where they lived.
She was known for making bespoke one-of-a-kind jewellery and worked tirelessly for several charities and often donated profits from her business to causes that benefited women, children and the environment.
The tragedy is the second to hit Mr D’Auriol, who set up a tennis scholarship in memory of his 12-year-old son, Teo, who drowned in a swimming pool in Bali in 2004.
On the Child Welfare Scheme website Mrs D’Auriol’s biography says “she has been involved with CWS since 1999 and despite being a wonderful and busy mother, wife and friend, she always has plenty of time to help anyone in need.”
She is listed in Hong Kong Tatler’s list of top 500 people.
Beverly Hills police are investigating the incident.
