Wendy Williams’ Ex-Husband’s Lawsuit Claims Guardianship is a "Money Grab"
Wendy Williams has recently found herself at the center of a legal storm, and her ex-husband is leading the charge. Kevin Hunter has filed a federal lawsuit in New York, seeking to free Wendy from her court-appointed guardian, Sabrina Morrissey. According to reports, Wendy is having none of it, adamantly declaring she has no involvement in the suit, which she perceives as yet another attempt to cash in on her situation.
A Disturbing Legal Claim
In the official documents, Hunter expresses serious concerns about Wendy’s guardianship, stating that it has morphed from a protective measure into an oppressive arrangement. He argues that rather than acting in Wendy’s best interest, Morrissey is abusing her powers and failing to support her well-being. The allegations include claims of abuse, neglect, and fraud, with Hunter insisting Wendy has the competence to make her own decisions.
Wendy, who has faced significant health challenges—including dementia, aphasia, and Graves’ disease—has reportedly been labeled "alert and oriented" by medical professionals. Hunter also asserts that Wendy passed a competency evaluation earlier this year but claims no action was taken to lift her guardianship.
Shocking Accusations and Financial Intrigue
The lawsuit isn’t solely a quest for Wendy’s freedom. Hunter goes on to allege that Wendy was coerced into guardianship due to "immense financial duress" and a climate of manipulation. Wells Fargo, one of the banks embroiled in the scandal, reportedly froze Wendy’s accounts due to suspicious activity, which Hunter argues set the stage for the guardianship.
In a particularly eyebrow-raising claim, he alleges that a staff member at the Coterie—Wendy’s assisted living facility—took unauthorized photographs of her, some of which were sold to tabloids for profit.
Aiming for Impact
The suit seeks a staggering $250 million in damages, demanding the release of Wendy from what Hunter describes as "involuntary confinement." He is also calling for Morrissey’s termination as Wendy’s guardian, asserting that she has failed in her duty.
Wendy Williams, once a towering presence in the daytime talk show landscape, continues to navigate treacherous waters post-divorce from Hunter, which was marked by its own share of drama. Now, her estranged husband is steering the ship in this latest legal endeavor.
While Wendy publicly distances herself from the lawsuit, claiming it feels like a money grab, the legal challenges surrounding her life remain an ever-evolving saga.
As fans wait for the next chapter, they can only hope for Wendy’s well-being and a swift resolution to this turbulent chapter in her life.
