Wendy Williams‘ family is opening up ahead of her new documentary.
In a candid cover story for People out Wednesday, the former daytime TV talk show host’s loved ones and business partners are opening up about the struggles she’s been through over the last three years — pretty much ever since she stepped out of the spotlight to tackle a series of physical and mental health struggles.

Alex and many family members will appear in Lifetime‘s upcoming two-part series, Where Is Wendy Williams, which is set to chronicle the 59-year-old’s health and legal problems as of late.
According to People, the documentary crew began filming in August 2022. They had been intending to follow Wendy’s journey launching a new podcast after The Wendy Williams Show was canceled amid her struggles. But when her health issues arose, the story took on a different angle.
They stopped filming in April 2023 when things became too problematic for the star. Then, that same month, she was placed into a facility for “cognitive issues,” her manager and jeweler, Will Selby revealed. Her son Kevin Hunter Jr. claimed doctors believe the memory loss issues are due to her alcohol abuse. She is still in the facility to this day, and ONLY her legal guardian has full access to her, including knowing her whereabouts and when or if she’ll ever be released. If Wendy wants to talk to family, she has to be the one to call them. Wow.
As you can imagine, this is a gut-wrenching reality for her loved ones, Wendy’s sister and Alex’s mom Wanda expressed:
Well, from an outsider’s POV, there was a s**t ton of issues. From financial hiccups
