Los Angeles, CA – The unsealed lawsuit brought by Wendy Williams’ guardian against A&E sheds light on her day-to-day struggles and provides insight into her current condition. In February, Williams’ temporary guardian, Sabrina Morrissey, filed a lawsuit in an attempt to block the release of the documentary “Where is Wendy Williams?” However, her efforts proved to be unsuccessful.
According to the legal documents obtained by TMZ, Morrissey argued that Williams was not mentally capable of handling her own affairs when she signed the documentary contract. Morrissey also claimed that Williams was unable to effectively fulfill her role as executive producer of the film, including shaping how she was portrayed.
The lawsuit reveals that Williams’ ability to care for herself has deteriorated since the start of the guardianship. Morrissey asserts that Williams now requires constant daily supervision to ensure her safety, well-being, and dignity. Morrissey further stated that she was under the impression that she would have the opportunity to review the final cut of the documentary before its release, and was blindsided when the trailer was unveiled.
It was recently announced by Williams’ team that she had been diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia and aphasia last year. She sought treatment for her health issues at a treatment center. The creative team behind the documentary claimed that they would not have proceeded with the film had they been aware of Williams’ diagnosis.
The lawsuit brings into question the motives behind the documentary and raises concerns about the portrayal of Williams. The unsealed documents offer a deeper understanding of the legal battle between Williams’ guardian and A&E. As the story behind “Where is Wendy Williams?” unfolds, it becomes clear that there is more to this saga than meets the eye.
