Wendy Williams takes aim at guardianship in 'The View' interview

Former talk show host Wendy Williams took steady aim at her court-appointed guardianship in an interview with "The View" Friday, insisting that she is not cognitively impaired and does not know why she is being kept in a "memory unit" at an assisted living facility.
"Get off my neck," Williams said when discussing her guardian and the judge who ordered the guardianship in a phone interview with "The View" co-hosts. She added that she would never want to work with them again and just wants to "move on with my life."
Last year, the 60-year-old’s guardian Sabrina Morrissey filed a memo saying she’d become "cognitively impaired and permanently incapacitated" following a diagnosis of early-onset dementia.
Williams said her movements are being restricted by the guardianship she has been under since 2022, adding that she wants to terminate it immediately.
Ginalisa Monterroso, a medical aid consultant representing Williams during the interview, said Williams first believed the guardianship was meant to help her manage her money — but what followed was unwarranted control, Williams said.
