Wendy Williams Faces Career Crisis as Judge Shuts Down Her Comeback
Wendy Williams, once the queen of daytime talk, is now embroiled in a deepening conservatorship battle that has left fans worried and outraged.
The drama began in early 2022 when Wells Fargo, her longtime bank, froze her accounts, claiming she was incapacitated and unable to manage her finances. The bank requested a court hearing to determine if Wendy needed a legal guardian due to her declining health.
Williams fought back, disputing the bank’s claims and accusing her former manager and financial advisor of misconduct. Despite her efforts, a judge sided with the bank, appointing Sabrina Moresy as her temporary financial guardian.
Since then, Wendy and her family have accused Sabrina of mistreating her and isolating her from loved ones.
Her ex-husband, Kevin Hunter, was among the first to raise concerns, alleging that Wendy’s advisors were mishandling her money and cutting off his support payments following their divorce.
Kevin insists he’s entitled to his share and claims the current situation is heartbreaking, as he believes Wendy is surrounded by people taking advantage of her vulnerable state.
Wendy’s health struggles have further complicated matters. In 2023, her team revealed she had been diagnosed with primary progressive aphasia and frontotemporal dementia, both of which severely impact her communication, behavior, and cognitive abilities.
Friends and family, including her son Kevin Jr. and sister Wanda Finny, have spoken out, claiming the conservatorship has done more harm than good. They allege Wendy is being isolated from family, not receiving proper care, and even being deprived of basic needs like timely meals.
Wendy’s friend Regina Shell compared her situation to Britney Spears’ conservatorship but emphasized it’s even worse since Wendy’s guardian isn’t a family member.
Regina and other relatives say the guardian has alienated Wendy from her family, restricting communication and making it nearly impossible for her loved ones to check on her well-being.
The controversy escalated recently after another court hearing. According to reports, the judge harshly told Wendy that her career was over and she would never return to the spotlight.
The judge also accused Wendy’s niece, Alex Finny, of leaking information to the media and threatened her with sanctions. Alex has been vocal about the extreme measures taken to keep Wendy away from her family, including forcing her to use blocked phone numbers for calls and not informing her of important family events.
Fans are furious, questioning why the judge appears so personally invested in the case and why Wendy is being silenced. Many believe there’s a larger conspiracy to keep Wendy under control and away from her money and support system.
They argue that, while Wendy’s family may not be perfect, it’s better for her to be cared for by relatives than by strangers with questionable motives.
In the end, Wendy Williams’ situation remains shrouded in secrecy, with fans demanding transparency and justice. The judge’s declaration that Wendy’s career is “done” has only fueled suspicions that something deeper is at play—and that the beloved talk show host may never get her chance at a comeback.
