The new Lifetime series Where Is Wendy Williams? was billed as “an unfiltered look at Wendy’s life following the end of her iconic talkshow”. Instead, the series ghoulishly lays bare Williams’s ongoing experiences with a host of legal and health issues, including early-onset – dementia.
In the four-part documentary, we watch her stumble around sick, confused, incoherent and unable to recognize immediate family members or properly answer questions. Even the signature blond wigs she always had perfectly coiffed while taping the Wendy Williams Show, her polarizing and long-running series, are a straggly mess, her appearance bluntly telegraphing her layered, years-long struggles.
