Wendy Williams was labeled as “permanently incapacitated” in new court documents by her guardian, less than a year after revealing her dementia and aphasia diagnosis to the public.

Her guardian, Sabrina Morrissey, and her legal team, wrote in court documents that Wendy “has been afflicted by early-onset dementia and, as a result, has become cognitively impaired and permanently incapacitated.”

The revelation came amid an ongoing legal battle over the Lifetime series Where is Wendy Williams?, a documentary that showed the former TV host dealing with alcohol addiction, alongside health and financial issues. Past court documents claimed that the series exploited Wendy Williams, and said that she did not have the ability to consent to the series due to her health ailments.

The new filing asked for information of her “health, familial relationships, and finances” to be redacted in an effort of privacy.

Wendy Williams was diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia and primary progressive aphasia in 2023, revealing her health conditions publicly earlier this year.
