In the lawsuit, the former 'Wendy Williams Show' host's guardian Sabrina Morrisey accuses them of 'humiliating and exploiting' the former TV host for money.

AceShowbiz - Wendy Williams' guardian is filing a lawsuit against A&E Television Networks and its executive producer following the release of "Where Is Wendy Williams?". In the lawsuit, Wendy's guardian Sabrina Morrisey accuses them of "humiliating and exploiting" the former TV host for money.

Sabrina claims that the network and producers have made "millions off Wendy's back." She notes that they only paid the former star of "The Wendy Williams Show" $82K for her participation. The guardian further notes the crew "kept filming, trolling for the most embarrassing and shocking footage to titillate and sell to their audiences."

Attorneys for Wendy's guardian stated, "Their behavior truly shocks the conscience, and they should not be permitted to profit from her suffering. We are proud to represent her guardian in holding them accountable."

In the lawsuit, Wendy's demanding A&E cover Williams' medical expenses and supervision for the rest of her life.

The lawsuit comes after Creature Films executive producer Mark Ford spoke with PEOPLE about the doc in February. He said, "There was a guardianship in place the entire time we were filming with Wendy that was court-appointed to oversee her finances and her medical care."

"So I think the larger question here is about what can happen to someone under a legal guardianship if the family is separated from them and there isn't somebody there on a daily basis checking in on their well-being," he said at the time. "Wendy's attorneys and the guardianship attorneys were consulted and signed off on the project."

Airing in February 2023 on A&E Network, "Where Is Wendy Williams?" showed the former radio/TV host’s life under guardianship amid health issue, including Aphasia.
