There is so much going on with Wendy Williams in the past 2 years. Number 1 is that she has been diagnosed with aphasia and frontotemporal dementia. So she will not be returning to the air.
Now there is a battle over her finances.
Letâs start from the top.
According to Radar, a source claimed that Wendy Williams Had an 8-Figure Fortune in Bank Before Court-Appointed Guardianship.
Wendy Williams had an eight-figure fortune stashed away in various Wells Fargo bank accounts before her assets were frozen and she was placed under the care of a court-appointed guardian, RadarOnline.com reported.
The 59-year-old former talk show star had accumulated a treasure chest worth between $40 to $50 million spread out in more than a dozen accounts held by the bank, a source told RadarOnline.com.
It is unknown how much of the cash is left since Wells Fargo successfully filed a petition in the New York Supreme Court to place Wendy in a temporary financial guardianship claiming she was potentially a âvictim of undue influence and financial exploitation.â
According to the source, Wendyâs life is now controlled by a cadre of lawyers, court evaluators, and specialists who are all chipping away at her fortune, and selling all of her stuff.
Wendy doesnât know any of these people, nor did she select them, yet they are all getting paid out of Wendyâs finances which only seem to be dwindling and not invested or improving.
Wendyâs private life focused mostly on her ex husband and his affairs, and until a Lifetime documentary about Wendy aired, showcasing the retired talk show host in a disturbing light.
Her court-appointed guardian, Sabrina Morrissey, filed a lawsuit to prevent the airing which shamelessly showed the beloved star in the confusing throes of dementia.
Despite the $400K contract. Morrissey claimed the gossip queen didnât know what she was signing and would not have wanted the world to see her disorientated, under the influence, and âin an obviously disabled state,â the court documents showed.
During the documentary Wendy said she had no money. âIâm gonna tell you something, if it happens to me, it could happen to you,â says Wendy Williams in the documentary trailer after revealing she has âno money.â
Wendyâs family questions whether sheâs being robbed blind.
Now Sabrina is once again in the spotlight after selling Wendyâs dream home for nearly a $1 Million loss.
The Manhattan townhouse was a dream home the Wendy purchased in 2021 that she never got to live in.
But before we get to that, part I of the âWhere is Wendy Williamsâ documentary on Lifetime, revealed that Wendyâs son spending excessively is what triggered the financial shut down to begin with.
Wendyâs nephew admitted her son spent more than $100k on Uber Eats aloneâŚ
Now back to the sell of Wendyâs beloved townhome.
On May 10th, Wendyâs Financial District area property was sold for $3.75 million. $822,000 less than the amount she purchased it for in July 2021. This process was overseen by Wendy Williamsâ guardian, Sabrina Morrissey.
Which is confusing, and has social media users saying that Wendy is being robbed blind.
Especially considering Wendy was hit with a $568k federal tax lien. So obviously someone isnât taking care of her business.
Regarding the sale of the former talk show hostâs home, a source informed The NY Post:
âWendyâs dream has always been to live in Manhattan in a dream apartment but never got a chance to do so. It is a very unfortunate situation.â
Sabrina is speculated to be taking advantage of Wendyâs health condition.
One Instagram user wrote,
âThey robbing this woman blindâ
Another user shared similar concerns,
âUnfortunately, this is what happens when you surround yourself with leeches and donât have anyone solid in your corner. The guardian syphons your money because her family is grimy and canât be trusted either. Poor Wendy, going out like this.â
Wendys family voiced concerns about her care under her guardian in the controversial Lifetime docuseries âWhere Is Wendy Williams?â
Wendyâs son, Kevin Hunter Jr., said, âI feel like the guardian has not done a good job of protecting my mom.â

Wendyâs sister said the family would gladly take care of Wendy and wasnât worried about getting paid to do it.
