Wendy Williams Reportedly Signs Documents to End Guardianship, Claims She’s Regained Capacity

Wendy Williams’ pursuit of freedom may be making some progress.

Just hours after the release of TMZ’s documentary about Williams on Tubi, efforts to end her guardianship began gaining traction. Sources close to the situation told TMZ that the talk show host signed an affidavit on Wednesday afternoon requesting the judge to set her free.

According to the affidavit, Wendy says she has “regained capacity” to function independently without the need for a guardian. She also asserts in the affidavit that she does not have Frontotemporal Dementia, despite what doctors had previously claimed.

In TMZ’s documentary, “Saving Wendy,” it’s explained that Frontotemporal Dementia is a condition that doesn’t improve over time, which contradicts prior assessments of Wendy’s health. She is clearly in a better place now than she was two years ago. Sources also revealed that Wendy will allegedly be re-evaluated by a doctor next Tuesday, selected by the attorney Wendy has hired to end the guardianship.

The following day, Wendy’s lawyer plans to file an “Emergency Order to Show Cause,” a petition that would force the judge to address the matter. If the judge denies the request, Wendy intends to seek a jury trial to let jurors decide if she’s capable of managing her life without guardian control.

In the documentary, Wendy openly shares her feelings of confinement, stating she feels like a prisoner, deprived of basic freedoms like fresh air, internet access, phone calls, and visitors. “TMZ Presents: Saving Wendy” is available to watch for free on Tubi.
