Where Is Wendy Williams?

We Wine Whenever (00:00.654)
So I watched the Wendy, where is Wendy Williams? Wow. That was hard to watch. It was very hard to watch. listen, it's sad. It is sad. It's very sad. I think that she was definitely taken advantage of. I think that, I think it started when her husband started cheating on her and she just kind of broke down and he was trying to, you he was, he was running her career.

He was making sure that she got to this. He was in charge of her career. Yeah. So we're all in agreement though, that she's an alcoholic. Well, she's definitely. And has been for a long time. yeah. She's definitely, and she admits she did a lot of cocaine when she was on the radio. She used to do a lot of cocaine. I mean, that's what they did back So don't we think that this might have something to do with her husband leaving her? Well, I think this is what happened. You think he was a saint? You think he wasn't drinking and doing drugs? You think she was doing it by herself?

Yeah, no. I mean, come on. I think this is really address that though. Right. I think it was who's going to address it. Right. Who's going to be there addressing it? Her son? No. No. Her? She's not in the mindset to address it. No. There's nobody there. He's not going to address it. No. I think what happened was it was a culmination of things. The husband said they should have gotten divorced 10 years ago. It's been going on that they're not

good for a long time. So I think the stress of that, her health issues, Graves' disease, know, amphetema, amphetema. And then I think that what happened to her show every single day for how many years? 14 years. And that's just a teeny show. All the years that she was on the radio. Yeah. I mean, yeah, she's been working her ass off for long time. And then I think what happened was

she got, you know, she had that thing where she passed out and the network was just kind of like, fuck this. And her mom died. And I think she just, it was a combination of her physical ailments, her mental, her mental states, her, you know, her dementia, the drinking. And I think she had just like a small psychotic break on top of all that. I mean, she just.

We Wine Whenever (02:30.38)
And sad part is she wasn't surrounded by the right people. No, because then all of sudden, like, you know, they talk about it on the documentary. After she passed out on the show, it was just like, boom, boom, boom, her career was gone. Her kid moved to Florida. She wasn't married anymore. Her all her people and management where everybody was gone. And all of sudden.

I think she just started to drink a lot and she just spiraled down. And then they say what happened is her family had her come to Florida to try and help her. there's a video that I've seen of her while she was in Florida and she was doing much better. She was speaking cognizantly and functioning.

And then when they, you know, when they swooped in and Wells Fargo swooped in and said, you know, cause her son had a very expensive, credit card bill, it was. a very expensive apartment, right? But the mother was staying there, right? But he had that apartment before she came. wasn't like, you know, right. They spent a lot of money and all of a the, you know, the bank was like,

Yeah, so why does the bank have the right to do that? That's what I don't understand. When I watch this documentary, that is what blew me away, is that she had to leave Florida to go back to New York because of Wells Fargo taking her to court to get a conservatorship for her, for her finances. But I think what transpired was... I have no...

good. She had the episode on on air. Right. Then she fell asleep in Louis Vuitton. And then she started and then she started drinking. Right. She went to Florida and then I believe went while in Florida she then had the diagnosis of the frontal lobe dementia and that's when the bank was like. Wait you think you think that's when the diagnosis came? Yes.

We Wine Whenever (04:54.286)
in the last episode. I didn't get to the last episode. Right. Oh, yes. So I didn't get to the last episode. I think that's what happened. So, okay, let's hear this. Wells Fargo filed the guardianship. Right. And that's, find, we find that out in the last episode. But in the meantime, the family had her down there and she was doing well. She looked healthy. Listen.

and some of those shoots in the documentary, her legs looked like so skinny. Skinny, It's like ridiculous. So skinny, so skinny. Well, you see, there's times when there's no food in the fridge and it's just ridiculous. But the woman who was given her conservatorship...

is under investigation. Did you say anything about that? No, but I want so in the last episode we don't see what was her name? Well they never say her name. No, I did find out her name. No, the publicist. Oh, Sean. Sean. Yes. Zanotti. Sean Zanotti because Wendy calls her Zanotti sometimes. And then the manager was- She's not in the last-

She's not in the last episode at all. Well, she- there's a reason. Yeah. So what's the reason? It's because, Well, she was fired. Yeah. By whom? Will? Or maybe the conservator. Maybe the conservator. Because she took her to LA. never know who, we never find out who the guardian No, they never mentioned the name, but Lori found out. I found out. That's, this is the woman on the- That's her picture. Then I have her picture. Do you her name? No, but I'll get it for you. Okay. So she was fired.

And she's being sued by another client. Shawn. Shawn. Zanatti. Yes. And Will was fired. Will was fired? Yeah, because Will? All he did was sell her a necklace. He was a fucking jeweler. Stupid. Wait, what? Yeah. Will, her manager? Yeah. Yeah. Do we find that out in episode four? I found that out when I She found that out. I didn't watch the fourth episode. Okay.

We Wine Whenever (07:06.912)
Yeah, it's crazy town. But the woman who is in charge of her conservatorship is also under investigation from other people that she is a conservator for for misappropriation of not gotten guardianship over her? Because they don't have the money to get an attorney. That's probably what it comes down to. her sister, her sister is a sound mind. I know, it makes no sense to me. makes no sense to And her sister...

fought like not fought but like avoided being part of the whole thing until the end and she was like at the end she was like all right I'll do this but even her niece is involved I mean her nephew or son they're from Hasbury Park like we're a hop skipping a jump away like these are real fucking people yeah and also dated people in the business like well so I carry their own

Even her brother, like why can't her brother jump in? Like it made no sense to me. brother, I felt like her brother might've, in the whole documentary, I feel like her brother, at first he was hesitant to say like she's got a problem. I think he has a drinking problem. Listen, exactly. That's what I, that's because even the father at the one dinner was like, you're drinking, you know, I felt the same way. It's just sad. I mean, the bottom line is it's sad because she honestly,

She's a Jersey girl. Yeah, she's a Jersey girl. Yeah, and she she made it. Yep. And now they're just tearing her down. Yep. And it shouldn't be that way. And her son, like I never got any vibe from her son that he was like taking advantage at any part. Like, no, I didn't either. And he says like, I just want the family. Right. To take care of the family business. He's not saying me. Right. He's saying the family. Right.

I can't I seriously could not believe that a bank has that much overreach. Yeah, they do because that's what I think that's overreach Yeah, and I'm in the courts allowed it right and I've read things that it's a lot more common than you think Well good thing we don't have no fucking money. That's right. So also this garden this guardian tried to stop the filming of this documentary of an airing

We Wine Whenever (09:35.246)
saw a lot of people tried to stop it though prior to the release of documentary a legal guardian attempted to block the project from airing a move that was denied in court Who's paying the legal guardian is Wendy paying? yeah. she must be well How f'd up is that? How much is she making? We need to know that that's exactly the thing I saw a that percentage of what Wendy's worth? Yeah. Yeah, come on and who?

The court up one time mm-hmm or Wells Fargo Like that's crazy. It is crazy. I want to be a guardian. It's court appointed. I mean what makes you a guardian? Right well her sister said she had to take a class To be able to do it. Hey, her sister. Yeah, cuz her sister wanted to do it. They said okay You to take a class. Yeah

So she took the class. don't know if she took the class or not, but she said all of a sudden the door shut down and that was it. She never heard anything. She said she would take the class and then everything got shut down. All right. So Sabrina Morrissey acting as Williams temporarily, Leovarian filed a lawsuit, uh, and the New York County Supreme court against A &E according to that's the area.

So Morrissey sued Lifetime for injunctive relief and requested a temporary restraining order in effort to halt the Where is Wendy Williams from airing. Oh, it didn't work. We all saw it. And I saw a thing that her net worth from last year to this year was at 20 million and now is at 500,000. But I'm thinking that they don't tell you like,

I think once your accounts get shut down, the people who figure out celebrities' networks can't see that information. So maybe now her net worth reads the 500,000 because that's all that's publicly available to find out. Well, listen.

We Wine Whenever (11:50.734)
When you look up someone's net worth, that's never right anyway. Everyone says that. I don't think that's, that's not public information. Your bank account balance is not public information. No, but you can look up anybody.

We Wine Whenever (12:09.198)
I hope not to be sending me Jack Listen you don't have to do that just cry that'll help just subscribe Okay, so according to so once Once the legal guardian was appointed Williams Wendy Williams did file a temporary restraining order against Wells Fargo Asking the court to reopen her frozen accounts

And according to Williams filings to the court, the banks move reportedly came after Williams formal financial advisor claimed Williams was of unsound mind. So her financial advisor was the one who started the ball rolling. Listen, the scene alone with her trying to get a vape.

Oh my enough to tell me. And Shawn going in and out. I mean, come on. Well, when you're stealing money from someone, you'll do that. However, I'm a, you, I'm a smoker. Really? If, if, if I was at the point where I was vaping, I'm not. No, I'm not letting you vape. No, you try it. don't believe it. No, it didn't work. No, don't vape. Chemicals are bad. Chemicals are bad.

But if I am a vapor and someone brings me a vape, I'm, I'm smoking it. I'm not sending that bitch back in to get another vape. I mean, she was running in and out of that store like a freaking idiot. was fucking ridiculous. then driving around the block and driving. I know you're extorting a lot of money from someone, Wendy Williams, but

Can't let someone talk to me like that. Well, I shouldn't say that because I've worked for someone who was just as fucking douchey I'm curious because I did not see episode four yet. So last I saw She was in LA with Shawn They were sitting at the table waiting for the NBC Universal executives to show up. Did they ever show up? Yes, they did have the meeting she never heard from them and it's interesting. Did they air the meeting? No, no, okay

We Wine Whenever (14:31.254)
I didn't think I'd say one. And then there's Will saying, of course they never aired it. Like it was a shit show. But my question is, it come out? How did Shawn pay for the airfare ticket? Because Wendy had no access to any money. Shawn paid for it. I think she must've. I think she was trying to grapple away the management from the other guy. Right.

Cause they asked her, I saw that. They're like, you know, not that he was doing such a great job, but like I said, he was like, he was a jewelry sales person. What are you fucking managing? Like what are you managing? I don't know how. mess. Yeah. I don't know how he ever came into play or how the other girl came into But where was, was it her, was it that her husband was doing everything and then when he divorced her. Well, the people at the Wendy Williams show.

did a lot of her management. So once she wasn't working there anymore, she had... She had nothing. She had nothing. She didn't have... And her friend was in California. Yes, her best So she didn't have anybody here in New Jersey or New York looking out for her because her family was in Florida, her friend was in California, she lost her show, her husband left her, her son moved to Florida. Yeah, so it was just like a perfect storm.

But it was interesting because that publicist. Was she even really a publicist, I wonder? We don't know. Because the knees, did you see the reaction from the knees? She was like, I'm not doing this. I'm not sitting here with her. So right after the documentary came out, that publicist put out a social media post saying, know, Wendy wouldn't have wanted this.

This shouldn't have been shown. This was exploitation. Exploitation? You would take Wendy Williams into a show with executives in the frame of mind that she was and that's not exploitation? right. She was saying that Wendy Williams thought that this documentary was about her comeback and that's not what they're showing. And when she was doing the documentary and the cameraman would say to her,

We Wine Whenever (16:55.864)
Well, do you think Wendy's drunk? she drink? Should she be drinking? Why are you like, why? No, I've never seen her drunk. I think she's fine. Yeah, she knows when to stop. I don't think it's a problem. Yeah, come on. yeah. So it's just a very sad situation. The last that I heard was that she is in a rehabilitation facility, undisclosed location.

her, she does talk to her sister and supposedly via the sister and the family, she is doing much better and is gonna try and get the conservatorship null and void. that would be so good. That would be If her sister could take care of her. Yeah. Yeah. I think she's very focused on being famous and being on TV. But she doesn't know any better.

No, and I think that that and that's what the family was saying that through this stay at this facility, they have been doing stuff for her cognitive well-being and the alcoholism and that, you know, she was in such a frame of mind that she had nothing else.

to try and accomplish besides getting back on TV and being famous. But now she's decided that her family is where she needs, you know, that she needs to focus on herself and not use the scapegoat of trying to get back on TV to validate herself. We've grown up in the area. You and I grew up in Brick. You grew up right outside of, know Asbury Park.

We know what it was. Yeah. know what it is now. She grew up in Asbury Park. Yeah. A little girl growing up in Asbury Park when she did becoming famous. absolutely. she did. That's fucking huge. yeah, huge. And all of a sudden you're taking care of your family. Yeah. And- Because that's what you do. Right. Wait, listen. Right. When you're from Jersey,

We Wine Whenever (19:07.542)
You die for your family is everything. That's right. Seriously. That's right. Like that's you're here for your family or they are for your family. Like if one makes it, they all make it. That's right. That's a Jersey thing. For sure. Right. Yeah, for sure. Yes. So I think she's so hyper focused on that, that I hope whatever facility she's in can make her see like, you've done it. You've done it. Your family's good. Yeah. Because every

piece of her family in that documentary seem like they're good. Her son, her nephew, her niece, her sister, her father. mean, my father, yeah, they're good. Right. could be an incorrect perception of mine, but none of them seemed like money grabbers. No, I truly, truly interested in her as the only money sharer. Will and Sean.

Yeah, and production company. And Will Carter. be honest, I might be naive, I didn't even get that from Will. I got it from Shawn. Will's a car salesman. That's my top. A used car salesman. That's what I got from Will. I didn't know he was a jewelry salesman, but what I got from Will, he gave me that used car salesman vibe. He's just a salesman. So we will definitely keep Miss Williams.

Yeah, and I'm gross. Yeah. How old is she? Do you know how old she is?

I like she's about our age. She's got to be around it, I'll let you know. And when I say our age, mean, Lori's in mind because you're younger than us. I'm going be 50. Okay, been there, done that. That's just coming up quick. 59. Oh, okay. Yeah, she's about our age. Yep.

We Wine Whenever (21:05.806)
Yep. So I'm gonna stop counting. Okay. It's just a number. It's just a number. So I'm, I'm hoping that, you know, some of her, um, dementia is, well, it's not reversible. No, it's a disease. Absolutely. But if some of it is caused due to

Overuse of alcohol it can taper off a little bit if she sobers up and yeah, you know So that would that would be my hope for her for sure. Yeah. No, I hope that whatever She has left on this earth. It is is peaceful for her. Yeah, that's what I listen I pray for peace for everybody to be honest with you. Yeah I mean not like world peace, but I mean like peace in people's souls for sure hard like

That's why every night when I do my prayers, I ask God to, you know, be with people through their suffering because everybody suffers. At some point, everybody suffers. And I think when you suffer, that's when you need God the most. So that's what I pray for other people. I agree. Yep. All right. Well, do we have any other hot topics or is that it? I don't think so. Okay. So you have a quote for us then.

Yes I
