Wendy Williams Claims Mental Soundness After Passing Psychiatric Evaluation

The former talk show host, under court-ordered guardianship, seeks to regain independence following a hospital evaluation and public plea for help.

Wendy Williams, 60, says she passed a psychiatric evaluation 'with flying colors' after being taken to a New York hospital for assessment following a welfare check.
Williams, under court-ordered guardianship since 2022, has been living in an assisted living facility she has described as isolating and restrictive, likening it to a 'prison.'
Her caretaker, Ginalisa Monterroso, stated that the evaluation results will be presented to the judge overseeing the guardianship case, with hopes of advancing Williams' efforts to end the arrangement.
Williams has denied being cognitively impaired, despite a 2024 diagnosis of frontotemporal dementia and aphasia, and has filed to have her legal guardian removed.
She is scheduled to call into 'The View' later this week to discuss her situation alongside Monterroso, who advocates for her independence.
