Wendy Williams showed her unwavering love for her father by making sure she was there to celebrate his 94th birthday, despite ongoing reports about her health.
The former talk show host’s son, Kevin Hunter Jr., proudly shared a heartwarming moment of his mother and grandfather together, marking the special occasion.
Wendy Williams Keeps Her Promise to Her Dad
Williams, who has been facing health challenges, appeared joyful as she sat beside her father, holding his hand and flashing a bright smile. Dressed in a stylish black outfit with nude stockings, bold red lips, and gold jewelry, she looked radiant. Her son, Kevin Jr., who played a key role in making the reunion happen, shared the moment on social media with the caption:
“Big 94 @tdw_author. Happy I could make this happen for you, Papa… I said by any means, and I kept my word.”
Legal Disputes Over Williams’ Mental Health
This outing follows statements from Williams’ attorney last month, disputing her claims of being mentally sound. While she has insisted she is not “cognitively impaired,” her lawyer emphasized that her condition fluctuates due to frontal lobe dementia, a degenerative disease requiring lifelong care.
Despite a recent interview on The Breakfast Club, where Williams expressed a desire to be free from conservatorship, legal decisions have ruled that she cannot manage her financial or legal affairs independently.
Claims of Isolation in a Care Facility
In her interview, Williams expressed distress over feeling cut off from loved ones. She likened her experience in the care facility to being “held hostage,” stating that while she could make phone calls, her family couldn’t reach her. She also revealed she had no access to an iPad or laptop and was only allowed interactions with caretakers who brought her medication, which she rarely took.
