Wendy Williams Challenges Guardianship Following Welfare Check and Hospital Evaluation

The former talk show host claims she is mentally competent and seeks to terminate her court-appointed guardianship, which her guardian defends as necessary.

Wendy Williams was removed from her assisted living facility on March 10 after dropping a note asking for help, prompting a welfare check by the NYPD.
She was taken to Lenox Hill Hospital for evaluation, where she claims to have passed a mental capacity test with a perfect score.
Williams has been under a court-appointed guardianship since 2022, with her guardian citing diagnoses of frontotemporal dementia and aphasia as justification.
The former host has publicly denied cognitive impairment, criticized her living conditions, and compared her facility to a 'prison.'
Her guardian, Sabrina Morrissey, disputes Williams' claims, maintaining that the guardianship ensures her safety and care.
