Wendy Williams’ health struggles have taken a severe turn, as legal documents reveal the 60-year-old former talk show host is now deemed “cognitively impaired, permanently disabled, and legally incapacitated.” Court-appointed guardian Sabrina E. Morrissey attributes these issues to frontotemporal dementia (FTD), a progressive disease with no cure.
This update comes as Morrissey battles A&E Television Networks, Lifetime Entertainment, and others, accusing them of exploiting Williams by filming the Where is Wendy Williams? docuseries without valid consent. Morrissey is seeking court-approved redactions to protect Wendy’s privacy regarding her health and finances.
Williams, who ended her iconic talk show in 2022, has also faced Graves’ disease, lymphedema, and alcohol abuse. Despite these challenges, her team insists she still maintains her humor and spirit, while receiving care to address her needs.
In a rare public appearance this past August, Wendy was spotted with her son, Kevin Hunter Jr., at a holistic store in Newark, New Jersey. Fans continue to send support and well wishes for the beloved media personality as she navigates this difficult chapter.
