Williams

Recently, 54-year-old Wendy Williams has been acting very peculiarly during her show. She was slurring her speech and she even fell on stage.

There was also a rumor that Williams called out sick for unknown health issues.

Early in 2018, the talk show host revealed to the viewers that she had Graves’ Disease, which in February acted up and she had to leave her show for three weeks. She fractured her shoulder recently and apologized for her abnormal behavior on her show. Williams blamed her behavior and abnormal speech pattern slurring her words on painkillers she was allegedly consuming to help the pain from her injury.

These issues caused her to release a statement saying that in 2019 she promised a better Wendy. She was going to get a great deal of healing and rest for the next few weeks.

These major medical issues had viewers wondering if Williams was physically and mentally ready to continue with her talk show. There were even rumors that her fill-in host Jerry O’Connell was being asked to continue hosting because Wendy was so ill right now.

Despite the health issues “The Wendy Williams Show” has been renewed for two seasons and will be around to stay through 2021.

According to a source, Williams is doing better and can not wait to see what happens in the future with her show. Even though she needs to occasionally sit down, which she already gave a reason for, she has no issues with her health and she is not leaving. After she was diagnosed with Graves Disease, she strictly followed the orders given by her doctor. She was taking a rigorous medication course that takes a year and a half for her body to adjust to.

Besides the issues with her health, the talk show host had to deal with rumors that Kevin Hunter, her husband got his mistress pregnant.

Love B Scott, a gossip site wrote about the story on their site. A source gave them the information who was never named. The gossip site was sent a cease and desist letter from the talk show host’s lawyer.

Part of the legal letter stated that Williams and Hunter deny all allegations that the sources made. Last year, the Daily Mail investigated this to the point they were almost stalking the couple. The Daily Mail gathered photos and other information of Hunter and his alleged mistress. The publication also reported that Williams, in 2001 caught her husband cheating after her son Kevin Hunter Jr was born. Publically she stated that the issue only strengthened their relationship.

Williams also had to deal with the wrath of other celebrities regarding this issue. 50 Cent went on his Instagram and stated that Williams was the most infamous side chick. She is always in everybody else’s s–t but she won’t talk about this.

Cherie Johnson, who is known for playing Punky’s friend Cherie in ‘Punky Brewster’ in the 80s and on ‘Family Matters’ which ran in the 90s, she paid Maxine Johns the best friend of Laura Winslow, mocked Williams on an Instagram video.
