WENDY WILLIAMS: Hiatus Extended

Wendy Williams is unwell. She has been sick for more than five weeks. Since early September, she’s taken a hiatus to recover from COVID and a psychiatric breakdown.

The daytime talk show host will be absent for the season debut of The Wendy Williams Show. Next Monday, a person to be named later, will be the guest host because Wendy is “experiencing serious complications” from an autoimmune disorder.

The production company shifted blame to Graves’ Disease for her health crisis. They posted to Instagram on Tuesday, (quote) “Wendy continues to be under medical supervision. She is making progress but is experiencing serious complications as a direct result of Graves’ Disease and her thyroid condition.” (People)
