Williams was recently diagnosed with primary progressive aphasia and frontotemporal dementia.

Beloved talk show host Wendy Williams has been fighting an uphill battle as of late. Her eponymous talk show officially ended in 2022 and that same year, Williams was put under court-ordered guardianship.

This was a result of her bank, Wells Fargo, requesting a hearing about her state of mind from New York Supreme Court Judge Arlene Bluth. In February, Williams was diagnosed with primary progressive aphasia and frontotemporal dementiaโ€”syndromes that negatively affect speech and cognition.

However, last week Williams was seen in public for the first time in more than a year.

On August 19, the 60-year-old star was spotted with her 24-year-old son Kevin Hunter Jr. at Bolingo Balance in her home state of New Jersey. The pair posed for a photo at the holistic wellness store that is owned by Victor Bowmanโ€”Dr. Sebiโ€™s sonโ€”which was shared on the brandโ€™s Facebook page.

In the picture, Williams was rocking long tresses and holding a large bouquet of roses. The last time Williams was seen publicly was in March of last year, where she was photographed walking to her New York City apartment.

Williams, who also suffers from Gravesโ€™ disease and lymphedema, was admitted to an undisclosed treatment center shortly after her diagnosis. Her family had previously shared that they were unable to get a hold of her.

On May 10, the starโ€™s home was sold to the tune of $3.75 million, a decline from its original $4.5 million price tag back when it was originally acquired by the former daytime talk show host in 2021.

The decision for the eponymous daytime talk show host to part ways with her home was decided upon by her guardian after Williams was deemed โ€œincapacitatedโ€ due to her illnesses.

The sale of her home was also a result of the federal tax lien in which Williams allegedly owes more than half a million dollars in taxes.
