Last week, Wendy Williams’ son, Kevin Hunter Jr., announced that he would be opening up about his relationship with his mother on his new podcast. While fans eagerly await his revelations, Kevin Jr. has also been actively supporting his mother, recently arranging for her to feature in an advertisement for foot baths.

The ad gained attention not just for Wendy’s rare public appearance but also for the heartfelt response from the manicurist who had the opportunity to work with her. The pedicurist, known as ‘footbaths_byjasz’ on Instagram, shared her emotional experience, expressing deep gratitude for the opportunity.

In a touching social media post, she wrote:

“POV: I Met Ms. Wendy Williams 🥹🙏🏾. My Experience With Wendy Was 10/10. I Remember Watching Wendy Williams On TV When I Was A Kid. I Never Knew I Would Be Sitting In The Same Room As Her Offering Her MY SERVICE (I Really Couldn’t Believe This Was Happening For ME). Wendy Also Educated Me About Her Lymphedema Diagnosis. I Say That To Say This—NEVER STOP GRINDING. YOU NEVER KNOW WHO’S WATCHING YOU‼️‼️ DREAMS DO COME TRUE. 🪄🪄🪄🪄”

The post was accompanied by a heartfelt thank you to those who made the experience possible, including @ron.insight305, @topfloor_kev, and @topfloor_trav.

Wendy Williams, who has battled health challenges, including lymphedema, has largely stayed out of the spotlight in recent months. However, this latest ad appearance has fans hopeful that she is in good spirits. The former talk show host has long been admired for her resilience, and her willingness to educate others about her condition continues to inspire.

As Kevin Jr. prepares to share his perspective on his mother’s journey, this latest public moment serves as a reminder of Wendy Williams’ enduring presence and impact, both on those who grew up watching her and those who now have the chance to work with her firsthand.
