ginger90 March 9, 2023 Share March 9, 2023 26 minutes ago, patty1h said: He thinks Wendy has not gone live with her proposed podcast because if she's working she could be liable to pay the ex-husband again. Was she paying him alimony? Alimony typically has an end date. It wouldn’t matter how much, or how little Wendy was making after the alimony was done. 2 Link to comment
patty1h March 9, 2023 Share March 9, 2023 From what I remember, Wendy was paying Kevin something after the divorce - first guess would be alimony, could be a payoff, could be money from their dissolved corporations/businesses/stocks, etc. The talk a few months ago when Wells Fargo was cracking down on Wendy's accounts was that Kevin was going to court to try to get money he seemed to think he was entitled to, which could be a number of sources. 1 1 Link to comment
Mindthinkr March 9, 2023 Share March 9, 2023 Some of this gossip seems plausible to me. I’m sure Wendy thinks Kevin took enough. Between the settlement, what he took during their marriage (money to buy his then mistress a car, a home and goodness only knows what else), and what he took as EP of her show). He was used to living high on the hog. Somehow I think she has some money squirreled away somewhere. She is always still wearing designer duds, traveling, hasn’t lost her NYC primary residence etc. If Wells Fargo truly closed her access to the money then how could she have afforded these things? (Not that I trust that bank either. They have been been in the media for some shady practices and I’ve even had neighbors that had big difficulties with them) Everything doesn’t add up. If she’s playing cray cray to keep from paying him, then good for her. I don’t trust my memory on this, but I think she only had to pay him alimony for 3-5 years and only if she had steady employment. I can’t imagine a reality show starring Wendy. What could the premise be? Watching her read gossip magazines in her lymph suit? Playing with the kittens (who should now be full grown cats)? Perhaps a dating show; although what kind of man would be attracted to her (other than for his 15 minutes of fame or her money)? This will be interesting if indeed it does play out. Thanks for the info. 1 Link to comment

Playing with the kittens I could see this being attempted. Some producer watches a bunch of those Housewife shows, follows their template and let the shenanigans begin. I don't even watch those shows but I know how they operate: Set Wendy up with a bunch of colorful "friends" that hang around and drink and go to clubs and shop. Some time is spent with Wendy but also you can follow all the other folks and spin off from there - delve into their lives and issues. Make sure to have at least two people who are "frenemies" so that there's a constant source of drama. Let the friends do the heavy lifting but cycle back to Wendy just to remind everyone it's her show. 2 Link to comment
NowVoyager March 21, 2023 Share March 21, 2023 Wendy was alone at a restaurant Friday when a "friend" came to sit with her. He looks familiar. I believe he's a celebrity reporter. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11883429/Wendy-Williams-seen-drinking-raucous-NYC-night-troubled-stars-rehab-stint.html A snippet of the article: Wendy Williams was seen drinking during a raucous night out in New York City on Friday according to a new report - five months after leaving rehab and amid her ongoing health challenges. The host, 58, who is plotting a return to TV, went club-hopping in Manhattan where she visited venues including Fresco by Scotto and gay bar The Townhouse, with a source telling Page Six: 'She kept saying she wanted to get drunk tonight.' Naughty But Nice podcast host Rob Shuter told the publication the star 'looked lonely' sat by herself but then 'lit up like a Christmas tree to see someone she knew.' Talking about their meeting on his podcast, he said: 'We had a bite, we had some drinks, but then when we were getting ready to say goodbye, Wendy didn’t really want us to leave' before allegedly suggesting going to a bar. A diner also told the publication: 'She kept saying she wanted to get drunk tonight. She wasn’t hiding [her drinking]' before claiming the star said she is moving to LA in three weeks. The source added that Williams said: 'She told this table that she was looking for love — and like in Sex and the City, she’s willing to f***.' Ex Real Housewives of New Jersey star Kim DePaola greeted her at the restaurant before the group went to The Townhouse where Williams is said to have asked the doorman: 'Do you watch ‘The Wendy Williams Show?’ I’m Wendy Willams.' The star's presence at the club saw her pose for photos with fans. DailyMail.com has contacted Wendy Williams' representative for comment. 1 1 Link to comment

Multiple sources have confirmed to The U.S. Sun that Wendy, 58, checked into a medical facility two weeks ago. Sources told The U.S. Sun that Wendy Williams is currently hospitalized in New YorkCredit: Dario Alequin for The US Sun The former queen of daytime TV was first taken to the hospital about two weeks agoCredit: Dario Alequin for The US Sun At one point, she was briefly released, only to return to the hospital a day later, a source claimed. One insider close to the ailing star said: "Wendy first went into the hospital about two weeks ago. She was released briefly last weekend, and she went right back in." A second source said her family is aware she's been hospitalized, but they don't have all the details about what happened as of yet. "All I know is she is in the hospital right now, and it's not rehab. I don't know which hospital except that she's definitely in New York," the second source said.

CynicalGirl May 24, 2023 Share May 24, 2023 ^^ Did she ever stop? Maybe, when she was in rehab. Now they say she's in the hospital, but NOT rehab, was let out for a day (probably against medical advice), then re-admitted the next day. Granted, she has other legit medical issues but I didn't think anything life-threatening. But she might just be drinking and drugging herself to death. I guess it's a good thing someone is looking after her money but too bad there is no one looking after her mental/health wellbeing. She's never going to work again. 4 1 Link to comment

I think what I read was from a couple days or more before her latest trip to a treatment facility was brought to light. I know she's done dreadful things in her life. Having said that it's still sad to see the toll addiction takes on the person fighting it and those around them. I'm hoping her current manager actually cares like he seems like he might going by his comments to ET.
