Alice Walton is the world’s richest woman — and may soon be worth $100 billion

Meanwhile, Bettencourt Meyers has about 35% of the world’s largest cosmetics company, which owns brands including Garnier and Maybelline. She inherited the stake from her mother, Liliane, who died in 2017.

If Walton’s wealth continues rising and breaches the $100 billion mark, she’ll join an elite club of centibillionaires that includes Elon Musk, Bill Gates, and Warren Buffett.

Walton and Bettencourt Meyers are two of several heiresses near the top of Bloomberg’s list, including Jacqueline Badger Mars and Abigail Johnson, whose grandfathers founded Mars and Fidelity respectively.
