Wendy Williams Doc Is an ‘Exploitation of a Vulnerable Woman,’ Lawsuit Claims

Wendy Williams was unable to consent to a contract she signed for Lifetimes' "Where Is Wendy Williams?" doc, an unsealed lawsuit alleges.

In the complaint, Morrissey claimed that Williams, referred in the suit as W.W.H., had signed the contract for the documentary in January 2023, just four months before she was diagnosed with dementia, rendering her incapable of consenting to the project. “She should be allowed to carry out her life and receive required care with peace and dignity, and to work, to the extent she is capable, in a nurturing, supportive and dignified environment. A Rolling Stone review of the doc called the series “a devastating watch.” “Seeing the vibrant, hilarious, and iconic figure no longer be herself is a tough pill to swallow,” Brittany Spanos wrote.
