Wendy Williams BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Wendy Williams remains a headline magnet even in the midst of her ongoing health issues and legal entanglements. This past week, dramatic news broke after she reportedly dropped a handwritten “Help! Wendy!” note from the window of her assisted living facility in New York, an event widely covered by outlets such as the New York Post and later by AOL News. Witnesses described Williams waving frantically and, soon after, NYPD escorted her from the facility to Lenox Hill Hospital for what sources identified as an independent cognitive evaluation. This incident comes on the heels of her recent legal attempts to end her court-ordered guardianship, under which she has lived since 2022 following her diagnosis with frontotemporal dementia and aphasia. TMZ and HuffPost reported that Williams insists she is not cognitively impaired and is determined to take her fight to a jury if necessary. The guardianship, which began after Wells Fargo froze her assets over concerns about her mental competence, has drawn scrutiny and sparked an outpouring of support and concern from fans and the wider entertainment community.

Social media erupted with sympathy and speculation, as images and video of Williams’ distress went viral, and the hashtag #FreeWendy began trending on X and Instagram. The former talk show host’s infrequent public appearances remain big news, with her recent attendance at New York Fashion Week and front-row appearances for Dennis Basso and LaQuan Smith drawing attention from outlets like AOL and RadarOnline.com. There is mounting speculation, however, about her ambitions to return to high-profile events; sources speaking to both RadarOnline.com and GEO.TV say Williams has been making discreet efforts to secure an invitation to the Met Gala from Anna Wintour. Insiders suggest her health status is a sticking point for the notoriously selective Wintour, who reportedly views Williams as a risk, making her Met Gala hopes look slim. Fashion insiders told RadarOnline.com “Fashion Week will seat her. The Met Gala? Whole different planet.”

Meanwhile, controversy continues to swirl around Wendy’s court-appointed guardian, Sabrina Morrissey. According to RadarOnline.com, Morrissey now controls all Williams’ assets and has faced criticism for selling off Williams’ Manhattan apartment at a loss and for her own legal and financial history, including lawsuits against New York’s MTA and American Express. This background has only fueled the ongoing debate about who is truly serving Williams’ best interests.

As the scheduled phone interview with The View approaches, the world watches to see what Wendy Williams will say next. Whatever happens, her name remains synonymous with both triumph and trial, her every move and utterance sparking headlines and impassioned conversation across the media landscape.

Stuff You Should Know
Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
