Wendy Williams has been a HOT TOPIC much of 2024! Her health, her mental capacity has been in question. Her absence from media has been MISSED. But earlier today, the media maven herself called into ‘The Breakfast Club’ at the behest of her one-time mentee- turned friend, Charlamagne Tha God to check in and let her LEGION of fans know just what has been going on with her for the past few years.

Williams,60, called into The Breakfast Club radio show earlier today (Jan 16) to talk about the “prison” she said she’s been living in. Williams, who was joined by niece Alex Finnie on the call, cried at times and insisted that she’s “not cognitively impaired.”

“I am not cognitively impaired,” Williams clearly and succinctly told hosts Charlamagne Tha God, DJ Envy and Loren LoRosa. “But I feel like I am in prison.”

Finnie said Williams is “being held” in what she described as a “luxury prison” in New York City. It’s a small apartment with a bed, chair, TV, bathroom and one window. She’s not allowed to go out or see people. All of her possessions, on display in the controversial Lifetime documentary Where Is Wendy Williams?, are in storage after her apartment was sold at a loss.

“I’m definitely isolated,” said Williams, who no longer has her cats. “I keep the door closed; I watch TV, listen to the radio and look out the window. Sit here as my life goes by.” She said the facility where she is living otherwise houses “people [who] are in their 90s and their 80s and their 70s.”

Williams said she’s given pills daily at the facility and she’s not sure what they’re for. She’s also locked inside and can’t leave without the door being unlocked for her. She has spent her past three birthdays alone, she said.

The iconic TV personality, radio host, and media maven claims her guardian, Sabrina Morrissey, who is suing A&E and Lifetime alleging that they “exploited” Williams by making the docuseries, has complete control over her finances and where she’s living. Williams — who once earned approximately $15 million a year — claims she has $15 to her name and fears retaliation for speaking out in this interview.

A GoFundMe has been started to help #FreeWendy — who was diagnosed with primary progressive aphasia and frontotemporal dementia, according to her guardian — get out of the guardianship. Help us reach the $50,000 goal. At press time, we are almost at 12k! Let’s come together to HELP Wendy’s family get to their goal to help this prolific public figure get the help she needs to get out from under this oppressing ‘guardianship’!
