Wendy Williams Doesn’t Have Frontotemporal Dementia, According to a Doctor | Just Jared: Celebrity News and Gossip

Wendy Williams’ legal team plans to seek termination of guardianship after new neurological tests in New York contradict previous dementia diagnosis.

  • On Tuesday, a New York City-based neurologist determined Wendy Williams does not have frontotemporal dementia after tests, providing results to her legal team late last month, TMZ reported.
  • After Wells Fargo alerted the court, Wendy Williams was placed under guardianship in 2022 with Sabrina Morrissey appointed guardian; a February 2024 diagnosis and earlier this year’s testing indicated frontotemporal dementia and aphasia.
  • Williams' lawyers are preparing to file legal documents within the next two weeks seeking a court hearing, and if denied, Joe Tacopina, attorney, will demand a potential jury trial.
  • If the motion succeeds, the new findings could end the court-ordered guardianship in place for three years as Wendy Williams maintains it is emotional abuse while resuming parts of her public life.
  • Medical experts note multiple specialists say frontotemporal dementia is progressive and does not improve, while court filings allege Wendy Williams faces confinement, restricted contact, and abuse amid Kevin Hunter’s $250 million lawsuit.
