Wendy Williams' publicist now says TV icon has been 'exploited' in Lifetime doc - despite encouraging her to sign up for it: 'I feel lied to'

'She thought we were focusing on the comeback of her career. ... She would be mortified. There's no way you can convince me that she would be OK with looking and seeing herself in that way.'

Wendy William's publicist has blasted the producers of a new documentary about the legendary television personality, alleging the TV icon believed she was filming a program about her comeback - only for filmmakers to capture 'a circus to her downfall.' She was alone and her mental state, having been divorced and losing her mother and liquor, it was not a good mix,' he shared, in reference to Wendy’s 2020 split from ex-husband Kevin Hunter Sr. and the death of her mom, Shirley Williams, during that same year. Sabrina had asked the court for injunctive relief, indicating her request could have been an attempt to stop the network from airing the TV special - but a judge ultimately dismissed the case citing the First Amendment.
