I can tell who didn’t watch the documentary because this was absolutely necessary to expose the guardianship and how they’ve actually failed Wendy. Her family is shut out yet her publicist and manager have more access to her.
Exactly! Why wouldn’t they want this exposed especially Charlemagne TF. The ignorance. And no you don’t see anything about Bruce Willis and Barbara Walter’s bc they are not in the same situation as Wendy.
It is clearly the niece’s strategy to expose the people around her and the guardianship to show the court that the guardianship needs to be transferred to the family.
The family didn't care about her until its time to fight for her money. No one ever moved in with her and barely visited her. They were all interviewed and deemed unfit for conservatorship. Her son found out she had dementia and funneled 100k to himself for a birthday party. The brother has always been on bad terms, selling stories about her to the media. The sister doesnt seem to be bothered and can't give an explanation as to why she was shut out. After her mom died, she now has no one left who loves her outside of her money, not even her own famiy. wow.. The guardianship obviously isn't benefitting her, they were quick to file to "protect" her money but have her locked up in NYC feeding her alcohol with no medical help so they can drain her, but her family is shady too from watching this. sad.
@@jasonk9419Not only did you not understand the purpose of the family doing the documentary, but you have NO IDEA of what you are talkimg about when it comes to the family's involvement in her health, even before her show went off the air! By your statement, it is clear that you got your information from the media, especially social media! You also know nothing about her true relationship with her brother !
@@chinablack9790 we can all watch it and speculate, the motivation for everything seems confusing. you dont know her or her family... everyone in her life seems shady. Including the family. no one is protecting her, the docuentary itself is exploitation

I beg to differ. Now we can see why the state-appointed guardian tried to block the release of this documentary. Wendy belongs with her family, and under the guardianship of her sister Wanda. #freewendy
Wendy had a 3 picture deal wirh Lifetime and owed them one more picture. Therefore, Wendy decided to do the documentary and called her friends and convinced them to participate. The documentary started out being Wendy's comeback story leading to her starting a podcast. Initially her son and sister did not participate because they didnt think Wendy should be doing a podcast. After a while Lifetime realized that Wendy was sicker than they thought and stopped filming in April 2023. It was only after Lifetime stopped filming did the guardian agree that Wendy should go to a wellness facility. Apparently, she has been there since May 2023. However, her family is not allowed to contact her but Wendy can call them. All of the footage was filmed after the courts appointed a guardian for Wendy who was not a family member. However, you never see the appointed guardian checking on Wendy and Wendy is in the house by herself and not going to doctors or eating well. However, when Wendy lived with her son for almost a year, she was not drinking, went to the doctor regularly, ate well, exercised and visited her other family members. Wendy's guardianship is up for review by the courts this year. Therefore, Wendy and her family decided to use the footage as evidence to have the court appointed guardian removed. That's why Wendy's son and sister ended up participating in the documentary.
Wish TBC had the care do actually do the research to present the accurate info. I like all 3 but the show is really starting to get on my nerves. They’re just so surface level.
Exactly! And if you noticed by the end of the documentary her assistant Shawn (whom I thought was crooked to begin with) just disappeared from the remainder of the documentary! Wendy's family had every right to expose this guardianship & the people around Wendy who are holding Wendy hostage & stealing her money! Sending love & prayers your way Wendy🙏
Omg THANK YOU! I couldn’t believe they even said that. Wendy was out of the limelight when she was in Florida w her family doing well! Like what a way to misuse your platform breakfast club. Think before you speak is all it takes.
this part. This is a black woman who is being taken advantage of by this corporate bank. They can do it because black folks don't get support from each other or the general public.
Facts but i thought that would have came out of Charlemagne mouth tho due to that fact wendy was the one that taught him everything he knows about radio he had a very close relationship with her until her ex husband blocked him out because of sharina
@@chelliechelle6602 While I rarely if ever agree with Envy, what he said was on point. When people look back on WW’s life, many will only remember this documentary which paints her in a poor light. That’s not what her family wants for her.

I think the point of this documentary is that the guardian took 2 years to do something, she had access to alcohol and was barely eating. The guardian is not properly taking care of her.
@@blissfulinsomniac5711 Yes, that is mostly the illness talking. My grandmother had dementia, and towards the end of her transition, she would say some awful things and became violent .
I have been kind of mad that they were making this. Then I watched it with my husband who is 53, an alcoholic, and a former crackhead. After the first episode he looked at me and said that he can't ever do this s*** again because it will ruin his brain. Thank you Wendy, you might have taken one for the team today.
Thank God! While watching I thought to myself: hopefully this will help someone. Again, thank God! It was very hard to watch however I’m so glad for u and your family. Continued blessings ❤️
Yes. For me, this doc reaffirmed all the BS highs and lows you go through with alcoholics. The Dr. Jekyll and Hyde behavior, mood swings, meanness, rationalizing, etc. However, I didn't realize even a FUNCTIONAL alcoholic can rot their own brain to this proportion and it's irreversible. In the doc, Wendy said to the camera, "Everyone drinks, so why can't I?". Like, ma'am - you are at the latter stage of the illness and you still don't accept. I doubt the family is equipped to manage her treatment and that manager guy looked foolish even trying.
It’s so insane … like find better things to do than plot on people ! But Wendy in fact needed assistance I just don’t know if this executor really gives a damn the way they are expected to
Exactly -- And Diane Dimond broke it down at the end. This is alarming. With children in foster care, the goal is always try to reunite the child with the family. When you're an adult in need of guardianship, you're a ward of the state and it's their call who provides the oversight.
This story truly is heartbreaking. So many people suffer from dementia because of alcoholism. If those things run in your family you need to quit drinking. It will save your quality of life.
I think the son and the nephew responded the way they did at the restaurant because they weren’t sure what type of response they would get from Ms. Wendy. They both appeared to be nervous to me. IJS
The nephew knew she didn't recognise him she just said hi notice she didn't speak to him directly the only thing I didn't like was her son and nephew drank alcohol in front of her and I'm still not sure how come he spent so much of her money I really feel sorry fir Wendy
I believe the purpose of the documentary is to get the family to care for her. The people around her want her to work and they arent concer ed or acknowledging her issues. The family wants her to get well health wise.
I just want to say no one knows how hard it is dealing with someone with dementia until its right in your face. My grandmother suffers from dementia and its heart breaking. But our family has always been involved in my grandmother care never had courts involved thank god.
What I took away from the documentary is, Wendy Williams was put under a guardianship BY the executives at her show. When her sister and son said they had communication with the guardian up until their focus ( the family)was to get Wendy better health wise and she wasn’t coming back to New York until then, that’s when the breakdown happened. It wasn’t until then that all the stories about her son taking money from her even came out. Her family ( sister, son, niece, and nephew) seem genuinely concerned and willing to take on the responsibility of caring for Wendy. Will is definitely putting on for the cameras and counting on the guardianship to stay as is so he can continue to be paid! Shawn is definitely an enabler! I hope and pray her family will fight to get Wendy back under their care!
When did they ever state the executives at her show put her under a guardianship? Didn't you watch the Lifetime show? It was THE BANK! That's how it works. W-E-L-L-S F-A-R-G-O.
Yes I watched the full documentary. Her son and sister said specifically that they were in communication with the show and was in agreement that Wendy needed to focus on her health. However, the show was more focused on getting Wendy better to come back to the show. Her son wanted her to stay in Miami to focus completely on her health and put business on the back burner. Her sister said the same, it wasn’t until then that she was ordered to come back to New York and placed under the guardianship . Go back and watch it both said the same thing it wasn’t until both was focused on getting her well that communication became difficult and a wall was put up
@@blah21blah22blah23 Sir or ma'am, i recommend you go watch the part of the documentary where they specifically talk about how the guardianship came about. THE BANK, were having concerns(ridiculous in my opinion) about the money being spent by her son and family on her, and even though her son explained what the money being spent was on and why it was being spent, the bank still requested the guardianship. Don't try to make things more complicated or deeper than they are. The show-Debmar, have enough on their plate moving forward than trying to protect Wendy's money. That's between her, her family and her bank. Meaning the Bank, took matters in their own hands even if they didn't need to.
Wendy’s documentary was heartbreaking. I was side eyeing everyone involved at first. I feel so bad for Wendy. She needs to be with her family not these random people. I definitely don’t trust her “manager”. He seems like a shady character. 😩
What we're not gonna do is make her son the villain. No one is raised or taught how to handle a situation like that. I know from experience. At the end of day, we shouldn't have expectation on how someone handles a situation as crazy and delicate as this. The family is probably doing their best. Especially when they have no power in the situation. We need to get back to how wells fargo is able to put a hold on her whole account. Also how her publicist and management is handling her situation. I find it very suspicious that all of a sudden, she's under a conservatorship. Which she was highly against for brittany two years ago. I think that's scary inside itself.
Exactly. I don't think the breakfast club cast realize that the family wanted this aired so that ppl and courts can see that the ppl who are supposed to be caring for Wendy, specifically the guardian and her staff, are actually helping her further decline. Hopefully this exposure will help her to get back into the care of her family.
None of this can ever take Wendy’s legacy from her. She is cemented in the history books as legendary and iconic forever. This documentary will never taint her different
@@constancehollingsworth5793 I have seen more comments about this being her karma and laughing at her suffering than I see people giving her grace and love.
I really really want to believe that her legacy is cemented as legendary and iconic! And I really hope so too! But I do also think about how celebrities are treated in the aftermath (posthumously)- some have Grace and compassion extended to them, some are pitied, some are denigrated… Only in rare cases and long after the fact is the person’s talent / impact mentioned first. 😢
I appreciate this segment so much. I only watched 2 episodes of Wendy and I was depleted with emotions. Her support system really should be her family.
The Laws are very broken when it comes to guardianship. It always amazes me when perfect strangers can be in charge of your family's members well-being instead of the family members themselves. My family has been through something similar and it brought us to tears and lots of confusion.
I didn't like Wendy Williams sometimes, but I wouldn't wish that on anyone. I really hope that she not only feels better, but has people in her corner that helps her along the way
I think everyone is missing the point. The documentary started with her journey to creating a podcast. THENNN this happened during the process. Maybe just maybe - THEY signed a deal already
@@2centsfreelancerit did stop at one point they decided to stop filming… and I think the crew was genuinely concerned for Wendy, and they litteraly flipped the all script that was supposed to be about Wendy’s comeback to an expose about how bad her guardianship was and how serious her situation was telling her family that she did not had food in her fridge, exposing her team for enabling her with alcohol and turning a blind eye on her health deteriorating. I don’t like Lifetime at all but on this one I can say they litteraly saved Wendy’s life. If it wasn’t for that documentary I am pretty sure they would not have sent Wendy into a facility. And now I hope it will serve as a piece of evidence the family will use in court this year to get Wendy’s guardianship
When Wendy did the first documentary and movie in 2019 she signed a 3 part deal with Lifetime. This final series filled the final part of the contract. Also the production team didn't know she had dementia until the end of filming.
Wendy is the reason CTG is who he is today! He rode Wendy's coattails, but he is so distant like she is another Jane Doe...no real empathy and concern about Wendy. CTG is BS!
Wendy revealed that Charlmagene introduced her husband to the woman that destroyed Wendy's life. She was never the same after that. That's the main reason he didnt want it to come out.
Not to cheat w/ her. That ain’t CTG fault. He said that on here and how crazy Kevin was moving. Taking the girl on vacation w/ Wendy and put her up in hotel down the street
That thumbnail is uncalled for! By the way, the doc is to expose the guardianship. Management did not want the doc coming out because they said it was exploiting her, the deeper story is that it’s showing that she needs her family!!!
As a Human Being, You Can't HELP but Feel Sympathy For Wendy Williams. Yes, She was Critical Of MANY MANY People. (WE ALL ARE, MYSELF INCLUDED) It doesn't Negate the Karma Theory that MANY Will Say She's Sustained. We ALL Will have our Karma So One Shouldn't Cheer or Feel Happiness in HER Dire Circumstances. I Really Weep For Her and Wish She Could recuperate. I HOPE Her Support System is 💯% Sincere. She really NEEDS that. From What I saw, It was HARD to Detect any of That.
Have mercy lord. Prayers for Wendy. She need genuine love and the fact strangers are over her money and all. I don’t like how this judge made this type of decision. She shouldn't be drinking. The guardian dont care nor judge. I wish i know her. I would speak up and fight. Because thats lady had me in tears. Just imagine how one day your fine then next this. Prayers for Wendy and her son too. Especially her father
It’s sad that people are saying that Wendy deserves this , because of her talk show and radio show, most of these entertainment shows talk about celebrities lives and gossip about famous people, y’all need to get over yourselves and don’t wish bad things to happen to people!!!
I think at some point in her gossip career Wendy put her mouth on the wrong person. There's some people walking this earth that God don't play about. I remember the hot topic episode Wendy looked at Britney Spears dad's picture and told him she wished he would die. That sent a chill when I heard her say that.
It didn't seem like they ordered it. When the wine came to the table Travis asked "who is that for" and the waiter kinda glanced to Wendy so he took it so it would not go to her, then another one popped up and Kevin said he would take it. Idk who ordered it but I don't think it was the boys.. probably some idiot on production did it to see how it would unfold.
They were the ones asked who ordered this and then they took them and just sat them down. I don’t think they ordered them. They should’ve just sent them away tho.
You didn't pay attention. Someone else ordered the wine. Her son asked the waiter who ordered this and he and Wend's nephew placed the 2 glasses in frony of them so Wendy couldn't drink it.
Clearly, you guys didn’t understand the message. The message was to expose her guardian!!! Her guardian doesn’t care what Wendy is going through. Her family is trying to use this documentary in the court to win over the case. Why y’all so stupid??? Her family does NOT want to expose Wendy, but this is the only way where they can prove that family should take care of Wendy not the guardian. Even Wanda, Wendy’s sister, participated in the documentary because she thought this would actually end the guardianship.
I got the same message Clearly from the doc. I don't know how anybody didn't get it. The banks took over financially but not of her day to day, and her alcoholism wasn't something the guardian was qualified to handle. Her manager probably told the guardian he had Wendy under control for her daily living. Clearly he's not and was taking advantage too.
Her legacy will live on forever. That Doc though made me have tears in my eyes I did not like seeing Wendy like that💔 and I do not believe it will mess up her legacy at all. She has made an impact in this game and that can’t be ever changed. I may not have always agreed with what she said, but I loved her show and she was very entertaining. The same people that hated Wendy are the same ones that’s making a living from the lane she created.
This is exactly why she ended up with a guardianship because family members and everyone around Wendy was there to gain something there was no real tough love shown at all.
Wendy’s niece was on the view last week stating that Wendy had a 3 film deal with Lifetime and this was supposed to be the final project. It was NEVER intended to be an expose’ but she WAS contractually obligated to that extent. However I AM thankful that this will EXPOSE the vulnerability of celebrities with health issues and how they can be financially abused for someone else’s gain. And Shawn better get her butt A GOOD LAWYER FAST!!
I think the documentary was needed for her family to show the courts that whoever she has over her now has not been doing what is needed for her health and wellbeing. It was sad but I hope it helps them open her case back up.❤️🇧🇸
Ain’t this the truth … reminds me of Michael Jackson … they sucked him dry till he was on his dying bed and once he died they really got paid … Wendy’s team wants her to keep this up so they can have a job n keep getting paid literally off her struggle and down fall ! Just my opinion ,cause why else would they expose her like this ! She’s clearly not in her right mind to say she wanted this documentary out !
This documentary should have never taken place. Wendy is suffering from alcoholism, health problems and she is not in her right mindset. This broke my heart to see her being displayed for the world to see her in this condition.
By these comments, it is unequivocally evident that many people have not viewed the documentary in its entirety. If they had watched it IN ITS ENTIRETY (it comes together toward the end), they would not make such silly assertions and have questions that were answered in the film.
Freakiest part of the ending is when they rolled the credits and we saw her manager Will, her son little Kevin and herself were listed as executive producers.
Wendys son should be her guardian He clearly had her in her best state when with him and most of all hes the only one she can trust and the only one she would truly wanna be near. That's plain as day from what I observed
Everybody's saying what's wrong with Wendy!! she is senile!! , no more no less , it's very sad, we all go through this with our families, and I'm sick and tired of the media saying something else is wrong with her we all can see that she is senile, we all love her ,I wouldn't put her on TV the media is making a mockery out of her , every time I see on TV I cry😢 please take her off TV ...!!! And let her family take care of her the people that love her not strangers that want to take advantage , she's not getting better you know it bless you Wendy God be with you ❤
According to the documentary, it was mentioned she has alcohol induced dementia, as well as lymphedema affecting her feet and mobility, Graves’ disease, and recently Aphasia, all before she officially turns 60 years of age. While I’m not a doctor I’ve seen many women deteriorate rapidly from silicon poisoning due to breast implants, and its typically something most doctors and specialists overlook when trying to diagnosis a variety of ailments that show up gradually over time. For Wendy’s age it’s all too strange all these problems have surfaced one after the other, while there’s no history of it in her family, and whatever her treatment she should be allowed to keep her dignity regardless if someone has to do it for her. Whatever your stance on Wendy no one should be put on display in this manner. Her manager all the way on down to the guardianship and family should have fought like lions to bury this entire documentary. The fact a guardianship exists for her, that is not family controlled, should be completely against the law, clearly they are squeezing every drop out of her possible.
It’s so sad to watch the damage that dementia has caused to Wendy’s brain. She’s emotional, she has behavioral issues, difficulty expressing her thoughts and she has memory loss. It is sad in general to anyone who is diagnosed with it and suffering in a similar way. I have always said, Alzheimer’s and other types of dementia is one of the most cruelest diseases out there.
It is often easy to express your own opinion with zero knowledge but it is also dangerous. Her desire to come back is her path not ours but considering her fame talking about her in the public may be the therapy she wants.
The part when she cursed out the trainer had me in shock. Showing her feet in that shape was so hard to watch😢. I feel like the manager is taking advantage of her. Although he is the only one that can handle her.
Charla needs to go visit Wendy himself If Wendy played a part of his career He owes her that help and conversation A prime example of forgetting who was there for you
I think her son and nephew felt awkward. Wendy didn’t seem to remember her nephew very well and her son seemed uncomfortable to do this in front of the cameras. People with dementia can be very unpredictable. Idk I think he just wants what’s best for her but he’s only 23.
That documentary was heartbreaking. Wendy wants to reclaim the fame that she once had and the people around her let her believe that it is going to happen, but it won't. Perhaps they think that if they let her think that she is getting a new show that will motivate her to stop drinking and improve her health.
I believe they are only letting her think it will happen for her because they want to continue to get paid. If they let her know her reality then she no longer needs a manager or a publicist. They are freeloading off of her.
I can tell who didn’t watch the documentary because this was absolutely necessary to expose the guardianship and how they’ve actually failed Wendy. Her family is shut out yet her publicist and manager have more access to her.
I was thinking the same thing smh
This is nothing new tho cuz look what happened to Britney. They should hire that lawyer.
Exactly! I don't get why people are commenting and speaking on it if they haven't watched the documentary in its entirety.
Expose and still get paid off Wendy name. Nothing will happen to them ppl when everything bout money
Exactly! Why wouldn’t they want this exposed especially Charlemagne TF. The ignorance. And no you don’t see anything about Bruce Willis and Barbara Walter’s bc they are not in the same situation as Wendy.

She wants us to see how the court appointed guardian is failing her.
I beg to differ. Now we can see why the state-appointed guardian tried to block the release of this documentary. Wendy belongs with her family, and under the guardianship of her sister Wanda. #freewendy
I think she would. She would want to let her fans know what is going on with her. Wendy always kept it real.

Her guardianship was just to control her money and not protect her image and private business?? The guardian is wrong.
This story truly is heartbreaking. So many people suffer from dementia because of alcoholism. If those things run in your family you need to quit drinking. It will save your quality of life.

Armon thinks Wnedy & her family were trying to show the courts that the guardian doesn’t have her best interest at hand. Makes sense. 🙏🏽🙏🏽
That’s what I was thinking
I watched the documentary in its entirety and agree with Armon.
I came to that conclusion in part two. I’m glad that the courts changed its rules as it pertains to conservatorship and it is evaluated yearly.
Yep agree I was thinking
Feel sorry for her hope one day we can see her on some other stuff
How can that be when it's a financial guardianship?
The doc was important to expose the guardian and the court system along with Well Fargo, black people take yo money out of that bank...
Facts…after all the scandals that bank had I don’t understand why ppl would keep their money with them. They have a history of shady practices.
Every bank
Never trusted that bank. I don’t know why, I just didn’t
I think the son and the nephew responded the way they did at the restaurant because they weren’t sure what type of response they would get from Ms. Wendy. They both appeared to be nervous to me. IJS
Yes! They looked nervous. And with good reason. She was erratic.
The nephew knew she didn't recognise him she just said hi notice she didn't speak to him directly the only thing I didn't like was her son and nephew drank alcohol in front of her and I'm still not sure how come he spent so much of her money I really feel sorry fir Wendy
Plus they had television cameras in their faces.
The documentary was about Wendy’s health and exposing the Guardianship flows.
She needed a sober coach, a house manager and a CNA around the clock.
Yes she need all that, and her family
This reminds me of that movie “I Care A lot” about the shady practices of court appointed guardians
Yes!!!!!!! I couldn’t remember the movies name but exactly what it is!
The clip with Black China with Wendy showing her real hair was sad cause I remember her saying multiple times we would never see her hair.
I believe the purpose of the documentary is to get the family to care for her. The people around her want her to work and they arent concer ed or acknowledging her issues. The family wants her to get well health wise.
Boom! That's it!
Wendy said she wanted her show back in the media. I have not seen the documentary yet.
I just want to say no one knows how hard it is dealing with someone with dementia until its right in your face. My grandmother suffers from dementia and its heart breaking. But our family has always been involved in my grandmother care never had courts involved thank god.
What I took away from the documentary is, Wendy Williams was put under a guardianship BY the executives at her show. When her sister and son said they had communication with the guardian up until their focus ( the family)was to get Wendy better health wise and she wasn’t coming back to New York until then, that’s when the breakdown happened. It wasn’t until then that all the stories about her son taking money from her even came out. Her family ( sister, son, niece, and nephew) seem genuinely concerned and willing to take on the responsibility of caring for Wendy. Will is definitely putting on for the cameras and counting on the guardianship to stay as is so he can continue to be paid! Shawn is definitely an enabler! I hope and pray her family will fight to get Wendy back under their care!
When did they ever state the executives at her show put her under a guardianship? Didn't you watch the Lifetime show? It was THE BANK! That's how it works. W-E-L-L-S F-A-R-G-O.
Yes I watched the full documentary. Her son and sister said specifically that they were in communication with the show and was in agreement that Wendy needed to focus on her health. However, the show was more focused on getting Wendy better to come back to the show. Her son wanted her to stay in Miami to focus completely on her health and put business on the back burner. Her sister said the same, it wasn’t until then that she was ordered to come back to New York and placed under the guardianship . Go back and watch it both said the same thing it wasn’t until both was focused on getting her well that communication became difficult and a wall was put up
@@blah21blah22blah23 Sir or ma'am, i recommend you go watch the part of the documentary where they specifically talk about how the guardianship came about. THE BANK, were having concerns(ridiculous in my opinion) about the money being spent by her son and family on her, and even though her son explained what the money being spent was on and why it was being spent, the bank still requested the guardianship. Don't try to make things more complicated or deeper than they are. The show-Debmar, have enough on their plate moving forward than trying to protect Wendy's money. That's between her, her family and her bank. Meaning the Bank, took matters in their own hands even if they didn't need to.
Exactly💯
The family is trying to show the lack of care the guardian is taking for Wendy.
Wendy’s documentary was heartbreaking. I was side eyeing everyone involved at first. I feel so bad for Wendy. She needs to be with her family not these random people. I definitely don’t trust her “manager”. He seems like a shady character. 😩
He is .. he is doing it on purpose
This was so dark it made me sad for her and her family. 😢 I pray for healing for her. And hope someone takes that damn liquor away 😒
What we're not gonna do is make her son the villain. No one is raised or taught how to handle a situation like that. I know from experience. At the end of day, we shouldn't have expectation on how someone handles a situation as crazy and delicate as this. The family is probably doing their best. Especially when they have no power in the situation. We need to get back to how wells fargo is able to put a hold on her whole account. Also how her publicist and management is handling her situation. I find it very suspicious that all of a sudden, she's under a conservatorship. Which she was highly against for brittany two years ago. I think that's scary inside itself.
the Niece also appeared detached, no hugs for Wendy, Blacc Chyna showed great affection physically and emotionally for Wendy !
I notice when talking to the camera the niece was very "My aunt, my aunt, my aunt".
Her big sis needs to be her guardian. Her current guardian not guarding nothing but her money smh
Exactly. I don't think the breakfast club cast realize that the family wanted this aired so that ppl and courts can see that the ppl who are supposed to be caring for Wendy, specifically the guardian and her staff, are actually helping her further decline. Hopefully this exposure will help her to get back into the care of her family.
None of this can ever take Wendy’s legacy from her. She is cemented in the history books as legendary and iconic forever. This documentary will never taint her different
Thissss, if anything please are giving her Grace and Love. Clearly, they didn't watch it. I am about sick of this show.
She built a career on the downfall of others. Sometimes she induced that downfall. You reap what you sow
@@constancehollingsworth5793 I have seen more comments about this being her karma and laughing at her suffering than I see people giving her grace and love.
Thats sad, maybe it's my algorithm @@kickrockspleze
I really really want to believe that her legacy is cemented as legendary and iconic! And I really hope so too! But I do also think about how celebrities are treated in the aftermath (posthumously)- some have Grace and compassion extended to them, some are pitied, some are denigrated… Only in rare cases and long after the fact is the person’s talent / impact mentioned first. 😢
Y'all wild af for that thumbnail
Jess said lifetime was tubi before tubi 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣love her
why that thumbnail? kinda disrespectful
Very disrespectful
she's done worse
You must not know who she is 😂😂😂😂😂
Very!
Yes thank you I was just thinking that shii
I'm praying for Wendy. Regardless to what people said about her career, that woman needs all the prayers and good vibes sent to her.
I pray whoever eyes see this comment God gives you the strength to over come every battle you're facing.♥️✨️
Amen 🙏🏽
Amen 🙏🏾
Amen...🙏..Thank you..
In Jesus' Name, Amen!
🙏🏾
This is a wake up call to get your affairs in order. and have documented who is to be your caregiver.....this is sad. She is an icon.
I can't even watch this. This is beyond heartbreaking. She needs help. This wouldn't be my mother.
I appreciate this segment so much. I only watched 2 episodes of Wendy and I was depleted with emotions. Her support system really should be her family.
“I rock rough and stuff with my Afro puffs!”
Aight Jess I see you…😍✊🏾
The Laws are very broken when it comes to guardianship. It always amazes me when perfect strangers can be in charge of your family's members well-being instead of the family members themselves. My family has been through something similar and it brought us to tears and lots of confusion.
Charlamagne isn't/ hasn't been saying too much of anything about Wendy...weren't they coworkers? Friends at least? Did i miss something?
Nope you didn't miss anything. For some reason, he is quiet when it comes to her. Cuz she was the one that put him on.
Exactly!
He was her intern. He's quiet because that's his homegirl that Kelvin cheated and had a baby with.
I didn't like Wendy Williams sometimes, but I wouldn't wish that on anyone. I really hope that she not only feels better, but has people in her corner that helps her along the way
I felt bad for that nail tech .. "are you stupid?!" 😮 she was so mean to everyone!
Tbc is full of a holes for that thumbnail. Wendy still got the best of Leonard lol
Said the same thing There's no reason for this documentary to be out. They don't do this to Bruce Willis and them.
I think everyone is missing the point. The documentary started with her journey to creating a podcast. THENNN this happened during the process. Maybe just maybe - THEY signed a deal already
That’s what I was thinking that she probably signed off on it years ago before the decline. The cameras should’ve stop at one point
@@2centsfreelancerit did stop at one point they decided to stop filming… and I think the crew was genuinely concerned for Wendy, and they litteraly flipped the all script that was supposed to be about Wendy’s comeback to an expose about how bad her guardianship was and how serious her situation was telling her family that she did not had food in her fridge, exposing her team for enabling her with alcohol and turning a blind eye on her health deteriorating. I don’t like Lifetime at all but on this one I can say they litteraly saved Wendy’s life. If it wasn’t for that documentary I am pretty sure they would not have sent Wendy into a facility. And now I hope it will serve as a piece of evidence the family will use in court this year to get Wendy’s guardianship
When Wendy did the first documentary and movie in 2019 she signed a 3 part deal with Lifetime. This final series filled the final part of the contract. Also the production team didn't know she had dementia until the end of filming.
When you’re hurting that deeply you search for anything to escape.
Charlemagne is like the little kid sitting next to his best friend in class. Stop interrupting Jess!
What
@@Babygirl899a huh
Baby it’s so hard for them to Respect BW but they have to now because they all been with their Karma lashings so now they have to behave!
Wendy is the reason CTG is who he is today! He rode Wendy's coattails, but he is so distant like she is another Jane Doe...no real empathy and concern about Wendy. CTG is BS!
@@jeannettehibbler2092 yup. Seeing more & more of that here & on the brilliant idiots podcast. It's horrible.
Since when can a publicist overrule a manager? How did Shawn take her out the state without asking Will?
True. However they are both not capable
I think Will was in on it. He just wants money .
Wendy revealed that Charlmagene introduced her husband to the woman that destroyed Wendy's life. She was never the same after that. That's the main reason he didnt want it to come out.
Not to cheat w/ her. That ain’t CTG fault. He said that on here and how crazy Kevin was moving. Taking the girl on vacation w/ Wendy and put her up in hotel down the street
Wendy called her brother(Tommy) Kelvin. 😭
CHANGE THE THUMBNAIL! 🙄
This episode I'm on 100%, and love what Mike said about Wendy and comparing it to Bruce WIllis who has the same type of disease.
Dealing with an addict is stressful.
Preach, and until a person deals with someone in that state, they have NO idea!
You said it!
I LOVE how Jess always checks Charla! Yes! Angela Lee could never handle Charla
That thumbnail is uncalled for!
By the way, the doc is to expose the guardianship. Management did not want the doc coming out because they said it was exploiting her, the deeper story is that it’s showing that she needs her family!!!
As a Human Being, You Can't HELP but Feel Sympathy For Wendy Williams. Yes, She was Critical Of MANY MANY People. (WE ALL ARE, MYSELF INCLUDED) It doesn't Negate the Karma Theory that MANY Will Say She's Sustained. We ALL Will have our Karma So One Shouldn't Cheer or Feel Happiness in HER Dire Circumstances. I Really Weep For Her and Wish She Could recuperate. I HOPE Her Support System is 💯% Sincere. She really NEEDS that. From What I saw, It was HARD to Detect any of That.
Have mercy lord. Prayers for Wendy. She need genuine love and the fact strangers are over her money and all. I don’t like how this judge made this type of decision. She shouldn't be drinking. The guardian dont care nor judge. I wish i know her. I would speak up and fight. Because thats lady had me in tears. Just imagine how one day your fine then next this. Prayers for Wendy and her son too. Especially her father
It’s sad that people are saying that Wendy deserves this , because of her talk show and radio show, most of these entertainment shows talk about celebrities lives and gossip about famous people, y’all need to get over yourselves and don’t wish bad things to happen to people!!!
Hers was different. She was digging
Didn't Charlemagne make lil mama cry for no reason. He's no better than her
I think at some point in her gossip career Wendy put her mouth on the wrong person. There's some people walking this earth that God don't play about. I remember the hot topic episode Wendy looked at Britney Spears dad's picture and told him she wished he would die. That sent a chill when I heard her say that.
It was disappointing watching her son and nephew order themselves wine at dinner when everyone wants Wendy to stop drinking. You don't do that.
I was thinking the same thing like absolutely no body should drink alcohol around her as they all know the situation
It didn't seem like they ordered it. When the wine came to the table Travis asked "who is that for" and the waiter kinda glanced to Wendy so he took it so it would not go to her, then another one popped up and Kevin said he would take it. Idk who ordered it but I don't think it was the boys.. probably some idiot on production did it to see how it would unfold.
They were the ones asked who ordered this and then they took them and just sat them down. I don’t think they ordered them. They should’ve just sent them away tho.
You didn't pay attention. Someone else ordered the wine. Her son asked the waiter who ordered this and he and Wend's nephew placed the 2 glasses in frony of them so Wendy couldn't drink it.
They did NOT order the wine.
Clearly, you guys didn’t understand the message. The message was to expose her guardian!!! Her guardian doesn’t care what Wendy is going through. Her family is trying to use this documentary in the court to win over the case. Why y’all so stupid??? Her family does NOT want to expose Wendy, but this is the only way where they can prove that family should take care of Wendy not the guardian. Even Wanda, Wendy’s sister, participated in the documentary because she thought this would actually end the guardianship.
I got the same message Clearly from the doc. I don't know how anybody didn't get it. The banks took over financially but not of her day to day, and her alcoholism wasn't something the guardian was qualified to handle. Her manager probably told the guardian he had Wendy under control for her daily living. Clearly he's not and was taking advantage too.
Her legacy will live on forever. That Doc though made me have tears in my eyes I did not like seeing Wendy like that💔 and I do not believe it will mess up her legacy at all. She has made an impact in this game and that can’t be ever changed. I may not have always agreed with what she said, but I loved her show and she was very entertaining. The same people that hated Wendy are the same ones that’s making a living from the lane she created.
Seeing Wendy like this almost made me cry, especially when her son and nephew met with her for lunch and her nephew was holding back tears.
This is exactly why she ended up with a guardianship because family members and everyone around Wendy was there to gain something there was no real tough love shown at all.
Someone in family (who can be trusted in her wellness care, not taking advantage of her money ) should be appointed guardianship. ,🙏
The fact that MK Ultra & The Mandela Effect still exists and the general public is not aware of it!
Wendy’s niece was on the view last week stating that Wendy had a 3 film deal with Lifetime and this was supposed to be the final project. It was NEVER intended to be an expose’ but she WAS contractually obligated to that extent. However I AM thankful that this will EXPOSE the vulnerability of celebrities with health issues and how they can be financially abused for someone else’s gain. And Shawn better get her butt A GOOD LAWYER FAST!!
Her family needs to be her guardian. Her hired staff including Will only wants her money! She has family that love her!
Is that the only picture ya'll have for the thumbnail. Isn't there thousands of wendy pictures on Google.
Her niece was on the view and said that Wendy was really wanting to put this out, so she can tell her own story.
Why didnt you call out Charlamaine for introducing Kevin Sr. to his mistress? He has a HUGE part in this story.
Right? He's the catalyst to all of this. I rebuke charlamayne in jesus name
Oh shut the hell up
@@suicidal9480it was wax he use to smash her
I think the documentary was needed for her family to show the courts that whoever she has over her now has not been doing what is needed for her health and wellbeing. It was sad but I hope it helps them open her case back up.❤️🇧🇸
Im glad they aired it.
This story is to inform everyone that when the establishment wants every dollor from the talent they don't care if the talent dies in the process!
Ain’t this the truth … reminds me of Michael Jackson … they sucked him dry till he was on his dying bed and once he died they really got paid … Wendy’s team wants her to keep this up so they can have a job n keep getting paid literally off her struggle and down fall ! Just my opinion ,cause why else would they expose her like this ! She’s clearly not in her right mind to say she wanted this documentary out !
truly sad we should never praise anybody's down fall like Wendy said it can happen to anybody
Exactly, people need to wake up and pay attention. Because, it's all fun and games until it actually happens to someone or their loved one.
This documentary should have never taken place. Wendy is suffering from alcoholism, health problems and she is not in her right mindset. This broke my heart to see her being displayed for the world to see her in this condition.
K. Michelle and Melyssa Ford hunting haunted housewives is nuts 😂
By these comments, it is unequivocally evident that many people have not viewed the documentary in its entirety. If they had watched it IN ITS ENTIRETY (it comes together toward the end), they would not make such silly assertions and have questions that were answered in the film.
Right!
Exactly.
Freakiest part of the ending is when they rolled the credits and we saw her manager Will, her son little Kevin and herself were listed as executive producers.
Wendys son should be her guardian He clearly had her in her best state when with him and most of all hes the only one she can trust and the only one she would truly wanna be near. That's plain as day from what I observed
Healthy Wendy publicly said don’t pig me in NO TV without my Wig! Old Wendy would never!!!!!!!
This Was Very necessary for the world to see and expose certain people, banks etc ...
Everybody's saying what's wrong with Wendy!! she is senile!! , no more no less , it's very sad, we all go through this with our families, and I'm sick and tired of the media saying something else is wrong with her we all can see that she is senile, we all love her ,I wouldn't put her on TV the media is making a mockery out of her , every time I see on TV I cry😢 please take her off TV ...!!! And let her family take care of her the people that love her not strangers that want to take advantage , she's not getting better you know it bless you Wendy God be with you ❤
According to the documentary, it was mentioned she has alcohol induced dementia, as well as lymphedema affecting her feet and mobility, Graves’ disease, and recently Aphasia, all before she officially turns 60 years of age. While I’m not a doctor I’ve seen many women deteriorate rapidly from silicon poisoning due to breast implants, and its typically something most doctors and specialists overlook when trying to diagnosis a variety of ailments that show up gradually over time. For Wendy’s age it’s all too strange all these problems have surfaced one after the other, while there’s no history of it in her family, and whatever her treatment she should be allowed to keep her dignity regardless if someone has to do it for her. Whatever your stance on Wendy no one should be put on display in this manner. Her manager all the way on down to the guardianship and family should have fought like lions to bury this entire documentary. The fact a guardianship exists for her, that is not family controlled, should be completely against the law, clearly they are squeezing every drop out of her possible.
With proper treatment this can be reversed i believe.
@@sharonbrooks4105What can be reversed?
Also curious if the lypo could have caused the lyphodema?
It’s so sad to watch the damage that dementia has caused to Wendy’s brain. She’s emotional, she has behavioral issues, difficulty expressing her thoughts and she has memory loss.
It is sad in general to anyone who is diagnosed with it and suffering in a similar way. I have always said, Alzheimer’s and other types of dementia is one of the most cruelest diseases out there.
Envy yall playing wit her legacy too wit the thumbnail yo
Yall keep saying Will is the problem and I think Shawn is more delusional than he is.
It is often easy to express your own opinion with zero knowledge but it is also dangerous. Her desire to come back is her path not ours but considering her fame talking about her in the public may be the therapy she wants.
Her family should be in charge of her care it’s all about money I pray Wendy gets well I feel so bad for her give this Lady respect and dignity ❤🙏🏾
Not, "if your eye won't close" commercials on lifetime- Dj Envy heck nawww 😂😂😂😂
that single black female 2 trailer was indeed on repeat 🤣
Wendy Williams had a contract with lifetime she had to do three documentaries
The part when she cursed out the trainer had me in shock. Showing her feet in that shape was so hard to watch😢. I feel like the manager is taking advantage of her. Although he is the only one that can handle her.
Exactly what Wendy said herself, “if it can happen to me it can happen to you!” That’s why.
Charla needs to go visit Wendy himself If Wendy played a part of his career He owes her that help and conversation A prime example of forgetting who was there for you
I think her son and nephew felt awkward. Wendy didn’t seem to remember her nephew very well and her son seemed uncomfortable to do this in front of the cameras. People with dementia can be very unpredictable. Idk I think he just wants what’s best for her but he’s only 23.
It's just weird we all have to see people's business on the internet now. Stuff should be kept private. I'm just saying.
That documentary was heartbreaking. Wendy wants to reclaim the fame that she once had and the people around her let her believe that it is going to happen, but it won't. Perhaps they think that if they let her think that she is getting a new show that will motivate her to stop drinking and improve her health.
I believe they are only letting her think it will happen for her because they want to continue to get paid.
If they let her know her reality then she no longer needs a manager or a publicist. They are freeloading off of her.
Charlemagne should make a documentary called “Surviving Wendy”
Putting make-up on Wendy for a photoshoot (???) when she was clearly out of it to sit in that damn purple chair broke me.
Is CTG eating a hard boiled egg 🥚 in the studio?!? That’s Flagrant lol
