Wendy Williams admits her memory loss has had a huge impact on her life in a conversation with … see more

Wendy Williams has denied that she has dementia as she revealed if she would ever work with the network Lifetime again after an explosive lawsuit and conservatorship.

The 60-year-old former talk show host – whose battle with aphasia and frontotemporal dementia was revealed in May 2023 – was the subject of a troubling documentary from the network called Where Is Wendy Williams? airing last year.

The star – who was seen drinking in bed and acting erratically in the documentary -surprisingly revealed that she would work with the A&E subsidiary again despite her conservators suing them last year after her documentary dropped.

Speaking on The Breakfast Club podcast on Wednesday the host also branded claims she had dementia ‘ridiculous’ and also revealed that she did not agree with the lawsuit her temporary guardian, Sabrina Morrissey, had filed against A&E in November. 

Following the interview, Morrissey expressed concern to the judge overseeing the Wendy’s case, stating that it ‘would be prudent for [Wendy] to undergo a new medical evaluation that will involve comprehensive neurological and psychological testing by a specialist in the field,’ according to TMZ.

Per the outlet, Morrissey also requested that the A&E lawsuit be put on hold as they await results from the requested re-evaluation, writing in legal correspondence via attorney Roberta Kaplan: ‘The Guardian has no interest in pursuing litigation in the extremely unlikely event that the new medical examination finds that [Wendy] somehow now has the mental capacity to direct the A&E matter.’

Wendy explained that she stands to win $20million in the lawsuit but she hated the four-part docuseries but that would not stop her from working with the network again.

She said: ‘I don’t want that kind of money, you know, I’ve worked with Lifetime several times. You know what I’m saying? Enough that I would love to do something with Lifetime again. 

‘They are good people to me and I am good people to them.’

Wendy also hit back at her guardian’s claim she is ‘permanently incapacitated’ and said she was disgusted by speculation over her health.

She said the entire deal to do the Where Is Wendy Williams? docuseries was made on her behalf. 

‘I only watched [the docuseries] once and I will never watch again in life’ she said.

‘It was disgusting and by the way I watched it with my guardianship person. Yes, we watched that together. That was the first time this guardianship person was like “oh my gosh” and she was writing stuff down. I was looking like “Oh my god” do you know what I’m saying? What happened with this?’

This comes weeks after her family members spoke out after she claimed she had never even met her guardianship attorney.

The talk show host, who has been living under a guardianship and was diagnosed with aphasia and frontotemporal dementia in May 2023, recently blasted attorney Roberta Kaplan for saying she would require care for the rest of her life despite allegedly having never met her.

In an exclusive statement to DailyMail.com, Williams’ family say they are looking for a new lawyer to represent her as she battles to end her guardianship.

‘The family of Wendy Williams wishes to address the current circumstances surrounding her guardianship and her ongoing journey toward reclaiming her self-determination,’ the statement begins. ‘As we navigate this challenging time, we believe it is crucial to advocate for Wendy’s rights and autonomy.

Wendy explained that she stands to win $20million in the lawsuit but she hated the four-part docuseries – titled Where Is Wendy Williams? – but that would not stop her from working with the network again. She said: ‘I don’t want that kind of money, you know, I’ve worked with Lifetime several times. You know what I’m saying? Enough that I would love to do something with Lifetime again. ‘They are good people to me and I am good people to them’

Wendy also claimed that she does not have frontotemporal dementia as it has been claimed and that she is not incapacitated

‘We are reaching out to esteemed Ben Crump Law Firm to assess the guardianship arrangement currently in place for Wendy in New York City,’ Williams’ family members announced.

‘Our primary goal is to ensure that Wendy’s best interests are being served and that she has the opportunity to regain control over her life and decisions.

‘Wendy is an extraordinary individual who has inspired countless people through her work and personal journey,’ they continued. ‘It is our firm belief that she deserves the opportunity to live with dignity and make her own choices, free from undue influence.

‘We are hoping that — through the legal system — we can shed light on this situation and work toward a resolution that honors Wendy’s voice and wishes,’ her family said. ‘We ask for privacy and understanding as we navigate this complex process, and we thank Wendy’s fans and supporters for their unwavering love and encouragement during this time to “#FREEWENDY.”

‘Wendy has always been a fighter, and we are committed to ensuring that she has the resources and representation she deserves. Together, we will work diligently to help Wendy reclaim her self-determination,’ the statement concluded.

In a recent chat with TMZ, Williams — whose family has started a GoFundMe to help free her from her guardianship — took particular umbrage with her guardianship attorney Kaplan’s recent claims that she has ‘good days and bad days.’

Wendy claimed that the lawyer has no business commenting on her mental state as she has never even met the lawyer.

She told the publication: ‘How would she know that? I’ve never met Roberta Kaplan and I have never talked with her. I’m isolated and locked away in a luxury prison. So much for the Me Too movement.’

This comes weeks after her family said in an exclusive statement to DailyMail.com on Saturday that they are looking for an attorney to help her ‘regain control over her life and decisions’

Meanwhile, TMZ Executive Producer Harvey Levin revealed on the site that he had a 90-minute conversation with Williams on Friday and made the shocking claim that she did not show a hint of disability despite her aphasia and frontotemporal dementia diagnoses.

The 74-year-old television personality said: ‘I can tell you that the Wendy Williams that I spoke to today is the same Wendy Williams that I knew 10 years ago. There is no difference.

‘She was lucid, she was articulate, she was with it, and she was opinionated.’ 

He went on to explain that he is not going to get into the specifics of their lengthy conversation as it was off the record but she wanted him to give his personal evaluation of what he heard.

 This comes just a day after Kaplan defended the decision to have her in a guardianship after the former talk show host plead for her freedom. 

After Williams called into The Breakfast Club radio show and insisted she is not ‘cognitively impaired,’ her attorney the guardianship attorney stated otherwise, per TMZ.
