After some time away, Wendy Williams has returned to the public eye. The former talk show host was seen shopping with her son, Kevin Hunter Jr., in her home state of New Jersey. Over a year ago, Wendy ended her talk show following health concerns. She was later diagnosed with dementia and was struggling to remember things and do her show like she used to. Wendy was reportedly out inquiring about health products to help with dementia symptoms like brain fog and stress.
Wendy Williams Dementia
Along with her dementia diagnosis, Wendy was also diagnosed with aphasia, a brain disorder that stunts speech as well as common literacy skills. Aphasia often surfaces after a stroke or head injury. While there were rumors that Wendy had a stroke live on her show in 2017, she denied those rumors. She claims she became overheated in the costume she was wearing as the episode was aired on Halloween. Earlier this year, the TV channel Lifetime partnered with Wendy to share he health journey with a broader audience. While the documentary touched on her dementia and aphasia diagnoses, it was revealed she was also struggling with alcohol abuse. However, sources reported that Wendy now focuses more on her health and well-being.
