Wendy Williams Calls for End to Guardianship After Passing Cognitive Test

The former TV host asserts her mental competence and criticizes her current guardian and living conditions during a phone interview on 'The View.'

  • Wendy Williams, 60, called into 'The View' to demand the termination of her court-appointed guardianship, claiming she is not mentally incapacitated.
  • Williams was placed under guardianship in 2022 after Wells Fargo flagged unusual activity in her bank account, but she now feels the arrangement has taken over her life.
  • The former talk show host, currently residing in a memory care unit, expressed frustration with her restricted living conditions and lack of autonomy.
  • She recently underwent an independent cognitive evaluation during a hospital visit and stated she passed 'with flying colors,' disputing claims of incapacitation tied to her 2023 dementia diagnosis.
  • Williams admitted to a brief alcohol relapse last year but insists she is now alcohol-free and capable of managing her own life and finances.
