A new documentary has recently explored the depths of Wendy Williams’ struggles with alcoholism, revealing a shocking alleged story.
The hour-long special titled TRAPPED: What Is Happening to Wendy Williams? premiered on the ID Channel, offering insight into her life while under guardianship.
The 60-year-old former talk show host currently resides on a secured floor of a New York City assisted living facility. Investigative journalist Diane Dimond suggests in the documentary that Wendy’s living situation has not always been this way.
“Wendy was on the third floor in this care unit, where she has access to the hallways, to the elevators,” Diane began.
“And on her birthday, she decided to get in the elevator and see where she could go. Well, it went all the way up to the rooftop bar, and it being her birthday, she ordered a drink, and then another one, and another.
“Who knows how many, but she will admit to you that she got drunk, she had a relapse,” the journalist explained in the show.
“Her treatment is to be sent to a much more restrictive ward,” she claimed. “And that was the fifth floor, the memory care unit, where she has a room with a bathroom and a television, and she is locked into that floor 24/7 unless the guardian gives her permission to go out once in a while.”
Placed under guardianship in 2022 and diagnosed with primary progressive aphasia and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) the following year, Wendy Williams has addressed these claims in the past.
