Wendy Williams: The Fight for Freedom and the High-Stakes Deposition

Wendy Williams BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Wendy Williams remains at the center of one of the most closely
watched legal and personal battles in celebrity circles right now.
The former talk show queen is gearing up for a pivotal court
showdown that could mark a turning point in her fight to reclaim
her independence. RadarOnline, Geo News, and multiple outlets
confirm that Williams, now 61, has begun “intensive training
sessions”—working with legal coaches, memory specialists, and
medical professionals—to prepare for a high-stakes deposition
related to her lawsuit against Lifetime and A&E over their
“Where Is Wendy Williams?” documentary. Insiders describe this
deposition as potentially life-changing, with the real possibility
that a strong performance could demonstrate she’s capable of ending
her court-ordered guardianship. Her inner circle reportedly sees
this as not just a legal battle but a fight for her freedom.

The mainstream headlines continue to focus on her legal status.
Despite her diagnosis of frontotemporal dementia and aphasia, a
judge ruled Williams can testify, sparking questions about the
accuracy and intent behind her medical evaluations. In August,
Williams herself demanded another dementia test, alleging her prior
results were manipulated to make her appear worse and keep her
under restrictive care—a claim that celebrity reporter Rob Shuter
echoed on Substack.

Williams remains under guardianship, with her finances and
movements closely controlled by attorney Sabrina Morrissey, and
continues to reside in a locked memory care unit at Hudson Yards’
elite Coterie assisted living facility in New York City, a place
described by friends as both luxurious and isolating. Her social
outings—such as her appearance at Bach Mai’s show during New York
Fashion Week, as reported by AOL—have sparked some hope among fans,
with sightings outside the facility and at Manhattan restaurants.
The grassroots “Free Wendy” movement, modeled after #FreeBritney,
staged minor protests this year, advocating for transparency and a
review of her guardianship.

On the media front, while Williams herself has not resumed her
hosting duties, episodes of The Wendy Williams Show continue to air
in syndication on HerSphere and EBONY TV. She has teased
involvement in new creative projects, but these appear to be either
archival content or replays from previous seasons rather than fresh
material.

Social media activity from Williams herself remains effectively
nonexistent due to restrictions, but fan accounts, advocacy groups,
and former collaborators frequently tag her name in posts demanding
her release and voicing concern about her welfare. Despite her
silence, Williams's fans remain loyal, vocal, and determined to see
her regain control of her life—a narrative that continues to
dominate tabloid headlines, entertainment columns, and pop culture
social feeds. There are whispers that if she succeeds in court, she
could author a dramatic comeback memoir or TV special, but as of
now, that remains speculation. The eyes of the entertainment world
are on her next move.
