Wendy Williams has publicly rejected claims that she is “incapacitated” and suffering from frontotemporal dementia. In a candid interview, Williams addressed the allegations made by her legal guardian, Sabrina Morrissey.
“I don’t have frontotemporal dementia…it’s disgusting,” Williams stated firmly. Speaking from a medical facility, she refuted any suggestion that she is unable to care for herself. “I’m not incapacitated,” she continued. “I am not a baby.”
Williams argued that she can perform everyday tasks and communicate effectively, contradicting claims made in Morrissey’s lawsuit against A&E and Lifetime. The lawsuit asserts that Williams lacked the legal and mental capacity to authorize the release of Where Is Wendy Williams?, the docuseries exploring her recent struggles.

Despite the controversy surrounding the documentary, Williams expressed a willingness to work with A&E and Lifetime again. “I’ve worked with Lifetime several times,” she said. “Enough that I would love to do something with Lifetime again. They are good people to me and I am good people to them.”
Williams also made it clear that she wants no financial gain from the lawsuit. “I don’t want any of their blood money,” she declared. “I didn’t sign off on this lawsuit. I don’t want that kind of money.”
The lawsuit, filed by Morrissey, claims that Williams was not in a position to approve the documentary, making the contract invalid.
Morrissey has since responded in a new court filing, defending the lawsuit as being in Williams’ best interest. She has also requested that Williams undergo comprehensive neurological and psychological testing.
As the legal battle continues, Williams remains firm in her stance, emphasizing her independence and rejecting any claims of incapacity.
