The release of Lifetime’s new docuseries “Where Is Wendy Williams?” has stirred significant controversy among fans and legal circles alike. Early glimpses into the series provided an intimate portrayal of the beloved personality’s struggles, including her financial woes and clashes with staff. However, the revelation of Williams’ diagnosis with dementia and aphasia in 2023, just days before the series premiere, fueled suspicions of exploitation, despite producers denying prior knowledge of her condition.

Recent developments have brought the legal battle surrounding the series to light. Sabrina Morrissey, Williams’ temporary guardian, filed a lawsuit against Lifetime’s parent company in a bid to halt the release. Although her efforts were unsuccessful, previously sealed documents from the lawsuit have now surfaced. These documents shed light on Williams’ current condition and Morrissey’s claims.

Morrissey asserts in her suit that Williams lacked the capacity to handle her own business affairs when she signed the contract for the docuseries. She argues that Williams was incapable of fulfilling her role as executive producer to ensure her portrayal in a dignified manner. According to Morrissey, Williams requires constant supervision to safeguard her safety, well-being, and dignity.

Furthermore, Morrissey alleges that the docuseries was pitched to her as a positive comeback narrative for Williams. She claims she was under the impression she would have the opportunity to review the final cut before airing, a promise that was not fulfilled. This discrepancy has fueled widespread criticism from fans and peers, who believe Williams was treated unfairly by producers.
