Rumors have been swirling that Wendy Williams is dealing with early-onset dementia. The former deejay and host of the Wendy Williams show has been putting her health first while the show has been filling in with guest hosts for over a month.
According to Williams’ brother, Thomas Williams, there is nothing that leads him to believe that Wendy suffered from the neurological disease. “We haven’t had any alerts like that and I haven’t seen anything like that or have had conversations with her that would lead me to believe that,” Thomas told The Sun.
Wendy was hospitalized earlier this year when she had a psychiatric evaluation.
Fans as well as the parent company of the Wendy Williams Show, Debmar-Mercury, hope that Wendy gets better soon but want her to focus on her health first, saying, “As soon as she’s ready, she will be back in her treasured purple chair.”
