AceShowbiz - Wendy Williams, the former talk show host, was recently seen in public for the first time since her guardian, Sabrina Morrissey, filed a legal document claiming Williams is "permanently incapacitated" due to early-onset dementia.
On Sunday, December 15, Williams, 60, was spotted in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, sitting in the back seat of an SUV while picking up an order from Sho'nuff Oysters. She appeared to be in good spirits, smiling and wearing an army green jacket and several accessories. According to blogger Antoine Edwards, who posted a video of the sighting on Instagram, Williams was accompanied by her nephew Travis Finnie.
The sighting comes a month after Morrissey's court filing, which stated that Williams has become "cognitively impaired" and is no longer capable of managing her own affairs. The filing was made to support a lawsuit against A+E Networks for allegedly exploiting Williams in their Lifetime documentary "Where Is Wendy Williams?"
Morrissey claimed that Williams showed signs of dementia during filming for the documentary and that the producers made millions while Williams only received $82,000 for her participation. A+E Networks, however, has disputed Morrissey's claims, accusing her of failing to protect Williams and allowing her to film without proper consent.
