  • Former talk show host Wendy Williams has been diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia and aphasia, according to her healthcare team. Williams, 59, stepped away from “The Wendy Williams Show” in 2022 due to her ongoing health issues, including Graves’ disease and lymphedema.
    Her team put out a news release Thursday, aiming “to correct inaccurate and hurtful rumors about her health.” This comes after a source told PEOPLE that Williams was receiving care in a facility. The release said Williams’ health challenges are evolving, but she can do many things for herself and remains in good spirits with “her trademark sense of humor.”
    In 2023, Williams was diagnosed with primary progressive aphasia and frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Actor Bruce Willis received the same diagnosis in 2022.
    KTLA's Carlos Saucedo reports on Feb. 22, 2024.

    This makes the time she passed out 6 years ago even more scary, It's scary how long it takes before the doctors could find out what's wrong.

    The sad but, not shocking thing for me is how her family is putting out all of her business for the world to see. Instead of letting her live her life away from drama and gossip (after many years of her being on television doing exactly that on her show), I feel like they should be giving her privacy instead of exploiting her situation for more money and more attention. This is America after all! SMH!

    Very sad. I really think that her giant breast implants have caused some autoimmune disease in her body, contributing to her dementia and aphasia. Its not normal to have foreign chemicals and objects in
    your body!
