Wendy Williams has been in the spotlight recently due to her ongoing legal battles surrounding her guardianship. TMZ Executive Producer Harvey Levin recently had a 90-minute phone call with Wendy and was shocked by what he heard. Despite being under a guardianship that has taken away her personal and financial freedom, Wendy sounded like the same person she was 10 years ago. According to Harvey, she was lucid, articulate, opinionated, and completely with it, showing no signs of disability.
Even Charlamagne Tha God, who was also on the call, agreed that Wendy did not appear to be disabled in any way. This raises questions about the validity of the claims made by Wendy’s guardianship attorney, who insists that she is permanently disabled with frontal lobe dementia. Wendy’s past struggles with substance abuse have been well-documented, but during the phone call with TMZ, she appeared to be clean and sober.
Roberta Kaplan, the attorney for the guardianship, has stated that Wendy has good days and bad days. However, recent interactions with Wendy seem to suggest otherwise. She has been actively participating in interviews and conversations without any signs of impairment. This has led to speculation about whether the guardianship was more about her past substance abuse issues than any medical condition.
Harvey Levin has questioned whether Wendy would benefit more from having a sober coach and being a free person rather than being confined to an assisted living facility under strict guardianship. The debate continues as to what is in Wendy’s best interest and whether the current legal arrangement is truly necessary. Only time will tell what the future holds for Wendy Williams and her ongoing legal battles.
