Wendy Williams' Guardian's Unsealed Lawsuit Against A+E Networks Claims Lifetime Doc Exploited Her


In a recently unsealed court filing, Wendy Williams' guardian alleged she 'lacked capacity' when agreeing to film the Lifetime doc.

In the complaint filed on Feb. 20, which was unsealed and obtained by ET, Sabrina Morrissey claims Lifetime's parent company, A&E Television Networks, and its docuseries "shamelessly exploits [Williams] and portrays her in an extremely demeaning and undignified manner." Morrissey alleges in the complaint that she allowed the docuseries to go forward with the understanding that the project would not proceed without the "review and final approval of the Guardian and the court, who are responsible for [Williams'] wellbeing." Even though she's listed as an executive producer on the documentary, the lawsuit alleges Williams "was, at all relevant times, incapable of managing her own business and personal affairs, and indeed, was placed into a guardianship and under the supervision of this court."
