Wendy Williams Sues Lifetime Over Documentary Exploitation
Williams' guardian demands all proceeds from 'Where Is Wendy Williams?' to fund her medical care, alleging the host was incapacitated during filming.
- Wendy Williams' legal team claims she was paid only $82,000 for the documentary while the creators likely made millions.
- The lawsuit argues that Williams was incapable of consenting to the project due to her dementia and aphasia diagnoses.
- Court documents allege the documentary portrayed Williams in a demeaning manner, using humiliating footage without her proper consent.
- Williams' guardian, Sabrina Morrissey, asserts the contract for the documentary is invalid as it was signed while Williams was severely impaired.
- The amended complaint seeks to redirect all profits from the documentary toward Williams' extensive medical expenses.
