On Thursday, Wendy Williams was seen attending her son Kevin Hunter Jr.’s graduation from Florida International University — one of only a handful of times she’s appeared in public this year.
Williams has largely been absent from public life since February, when representatives shared that she’d been diagnosed with primary progressive aphasia and frontotemporal dementia. Her condition has been at the center of a legal battle between her court-appointed legal guardian, Sabrina Morrissey, and A&E Networks, which released a controversial Lifetime documentary in February that Morrissey claims exploited Williams’s health. In a recent filing, Morrissey wrote that Williams is “cognitively impaired and permanently incapacitated.”
Hunter, who was taking care of his mother until she was given a court-appointed guardian in May 2022, has joined the rest of his family in pushing back against Williams’s guardianship — a mission they say the Lifetime documentary was supposed to accomplish. “I feel like the guardian has not done a good job of protecting my mom,” he said at one point in the trailer.
Williams was pictured at Hunter’s ceremony Thursday sitting in a motorized scooter, which was decked out with a “HIGH MAINTENANCE” pouch and a sparkly Chanel key chain. That’s our girl.
