I’d imagine this is an old pic. Pretty hot in Greece right now.

I’ve seen people dress “warmly” in Phoenix in the summertime.

SHE looks like any old bag lady scavenging for cast-offs in the rubbish as the world looks the other way.

But this is no ordinary woman - she is Olga Onassis, 90, a woman linked by marriage to one of the richest dynasties in the world.

She has now fallen, like her country, on desperate times.

She is a regular at a church soup kitchen in the Greek capital, Athens, and roots around in the overflowing garbage containers of the city for clothes.

German newspaper Bild spoke with her this week as her debt-ridden nation lurched into violence and chaos once more.

Olga Onassis’s husband Georgios was the cousin of Aristotle Onassis, the fabulously wealth Greek shipping tycoon who married President John F. Kennedy’s widow Jackie in 1968. Theirs was a life of splendour and opulence before his death in 1975. But Olga has not received anything from the family in more than six years.

She told Bild: ‘’I get nothing more from the family. I survive on one pension only and that was cut to €300 ($A402) a month because of the crisis. I cannot believe what has happened to my country.’’
