Winifred Jacqueline Fraser Bisset was born on 13 September 1944, in Weybridge, Surrey England, of part-French (mother) and Scottish (father) descent. She is a noted actress, who rose to fame in the ’60s in such films as “Bullitt” opposite Steve McQueen, the most successful film at the box office in 1968, but who has endured to this day in the film industry partly because of her continuing good looks.

So just how rich is  Jacqueline Bisset? Sources estimate that the net worth of Jacqueline can be evaluated at over $20 million, obviously most of her wealth coming from her  acting career that began when she was 21 ears of age.

Jacqueline Bisset grew up in England, Reading, but as her mother had taught her French, she attended the Lycée Français Charles de Gaulle in London. Interestingly, as a young girl the ambitious Jacqueline took ballet lessons and paid for them from her work in fashion modeling. Jacqueline’s first and modest appearance was in the movie “The Knack… and How to Get It” which came out in 1965. Later she acted in Roman Polanski’s “Cul-de-sac”.

Because of her beauty, many remember Jacqueline best as Miss Goodthighs from “Casino Royale”, but in 1968 she played Norma Maclver along with Frank Sinatra in “The Detective” which provided her with fame and recognition in the masses, then starred in the aforementioned “Bullitt”. Besides films in England, the actress has appeared in French, Italian, and American movies. One of them was “The Deep” that was first shown in theatres in 1977.

Bisset, who is a godmother of Angelina Jolie, has been successfully able to land roles in famous movies despite her age which quite often is a big obstacle to other actresses. Her talent and hard work have been recognized and rewarded worldwide on several occasions. Particularly, in 1978 the actress was nominated for the Golden Globe award for the Best Actress in a comedy for her role in “Who is Killing the Great Chefs of Europe?” Another Golden Globe nomination followed in 1984 for her performance in “Under the Volcano” as Albert Finney’s wife. Jacqueline was also nominated for the prestigious César Award in 1996 for her role in “La Cérémonie“, a famous French movie. Her later career includes such films as “America’s Prince: The John F. Kennedy Jr. Story” (2003) where she coincidentally played a woman with the same first name – Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis. The actress commented in 2006 that for her the depth of a movie is very important and quite often that is hard to find in American films, therefore, she rather seeks to play meaningful roles even in smaller movies or independent films.

Many speculate that Jacqueline Bisset’s outstanding success in the film industry is not only due to her talent but also to her stunning looks that seem to be ageless. Even though she’s been acting for four decades, her eyes still sparkle and her body is lean and sexy that even some twenty year-olds could envy. The actress who is also an ambassador for Avon has her own distinguished style. Her enduring success can be gauged by the fact that she has appeared in almost 80 films as well as over 10 TV shows – even winning a Golden Globe Award in 2013 – and is still in the process of shooting her latest film in mid-2015.

However, despite her success, fame, and beauty the actress never married. Yes, there were love affairs and long-term relationships but none of them became serious enough to be worth such a commitment. Some of her partners were actor Michael Sarrazin, dancer Alexander Godunov and real estate magnate Victor Drai to whom the actress expressed great attachment. Now Jacqueline is still performing as an actress and commutes back and forth between England and Beverly Hills.
