"Wendy Williams' Battle with Aphasia and Dementia: A Harrowing Family Documentary"

Talk show host Wendy Williams has been diagnosed with primary progressive aphasia and frontotemporal dementia, conditions that affect language, communication, behavior, and function. Her care team shared the health update to correct inaccurate rumors about her health, and Williams' public disclosure aims to raise awareness about these conditions. The diagnosis comes after Williams took a leave from her show in 2021 due to health issues and amid legal disputes over her guardianship and finances.
