Wendy Williams has been overwhelmed with support since sharing that she was diagnosed with a neurological condition.
“I want to say I have immense gratitude for the love and kind words I have received after sharing my diagnosis of Aphasia and Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD)," Williams said in a statement that was facilitated by and shared through her care team. "Let me say, wow! Your response has been overwhelming. The messages shared with me have touched me, reminding me of the power of unity and the need for compassion."
She added that the "positivity and encouragement are deeply appreciated" but asked for personal space.
On Friday, Lifetime said it will air its “Where is Wendy Williams?” documentary this weekend as scheduled after a New York court rejected an attempt to block the broadcast.
The order signed Friday by a New York appellate judge says blocking the documentary from airing would be an “impermissible prior restraint on speech that violates the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution.”
