Wendy Williams Thanks Fans After Dementia Diagnosis: ‘Your Positivity and Encouragement are Deeply Appreciated’
Wendy Williams addressed her dementia diagnosis in a statement Friday, saying "I have immense gratitude for the love and kind words I have received."
Williams was initially diagnosed with the syndrome last year, which, although her team said had “already presented significant hurdles in Wendy’s life,” she’s still able to “do many things for herself” and that she still “maintains her trademark sense of humor.” Lifetime’s documentary “Where Is Wendy Williams” will air Saturday as planned, despite a last-minute attempt from her court-appointed guardian to try to block its release by reportedly filing a lawsuit.
