About this listen
This week has made headlines for Wendy Williams in ways both dramatic and poignant, underscoring the ongoing saga of her health, personal freedom, and public legacy. On Monday, Williams stunned the public by dropping a handwritten note from her fifth-story window of a New York assisted-living facility, pleading for help with the words Help Wendy. The note, reported by The New York Post and AOL, sparked immediate concern and led to her being escorted by police and transferred to Lenox Hill Hospital for an independent cognitive evaluation. The visit was reportedly prompted by a caregiver outside of her current court-appointed guardianship, aiming to determine the validity of Williams claims that she is being held against her will. This follows Williams own repeated comparisons of the facility to a prison and her assertions in recent interviews—most notably with The Breakfast Club and TMZ—that she is not cognitively impaired and deserves agency over her life. Her legal push to end the conservatorship, which has sharply limited her autonomy since 2022, continues, with Williams vowing to take her fight to a jury if needed, as noted by HuffPost and TMZ.
Thursday night brought a rare, spirited public appearance: Williams strode arm-in-arm with media figures Alvina Alston and Tobi Rubinstein for a ladies night out in New York City, looking overjoyed and energized by the freedom away from the assisted living facility, as captured in a widely shared AOL video. This comes after months in which her outings have been closely monitored, with her last public dinner being with Don Lemon in April. Photos and video showed an elated Williams hugging her friends tightly, a bright moment in an otherwise fraught stretch.
Rumors and speculation about her health and guardianship remain rampant, but Williams has directly addressed the public and fan concerns in recent days, including through a scheduled phone interview on The View announced for this Friday. Social media has been buzzing with support and concern. The longest-running Wendy Williams fan page recently announced a hiatus, reflecting both the volatility around her case and the enduring loyalty of her supporters, according to AOL.
On the romance front, Williams set Instagram abuzz by officially revealing her relationship with jeweler William Selby, confirming what fans had long suspected. The pair were spotted at New York events together, and Williams' personal life continues to attract major tabloid interest, particularly given the timing following her divorce from Kevin Hunter.
From legal battles and mental health discussions to surprise outings and relationship news, every new headline seems likely to further shape how Wendy Williams will ultimately be remembered—whether as a trailblazer battling for her independence or as a tragic figure wrestling against the controls imposed by others.
