Once acclaimed and celebrated as the richest woman in Africa, Isabel Dos Santos at her height was worth about $3.5 billion, according to Forbes. Dos Santos had the charisma of a president or first lady of a country. She always put on a charming smile whenever she was in the public eye.
In what seemed like a movie, Dos Santos lost it all, falling off the Forbes billionaire list and almost into obscurity. The fame, respect, and of course, billions of dollars were gone after it was alleged by Angolan authorities that she and her husband accumulated riches through embezzlement and money laundering.
