Wendy Williams to Take Hiatus from Talk Show Due to Health Concerns.
Wendy Williams is going on a hiatus from her talk show, The Wendy Williams Show, and there’s no return date yet for the show.
The talk show host was diagnosed with Graves’ disease in early 2018 and symptoms from the disease are causing her fatigue right now.
The show said in a statement, “Recently, Wendy has been dealing with symptoms from her Graves’ disease which is causing fatigue. In consultation with her doctor and as a precautionary measure, she will be taking some time off as she continues to receive treatment. We look forward to welcoming Wendy back soon and continuing the Wendy@Home shows. More updates on a return date will follow.”
Repeat episodes of The Wendy Williams Show will be airing until Wendy is well enough to return to the show.
Earlier this month, Wendy made a controversial comment about other TV hosts who have been working from home.

Also, leaking silicone implants - I wonder if she can be considered a carbon based lifeform any longer. Graves disease is an autoimmune disorder.

“Health concerns” translates to “pills and alcohol”.

If anyone watched the show for the last 2-3 weeks, there were clear signs that Wendy was hanging on by a thread and I don't mean Graves disease. She has been looking strung out, hungover, sad, depressed, sleepy, barely able to sit up straight. She broke down in tears at least 5 times in the last 4 weeks. She was doing those long pauses between her thoughts like she was doing before she went to rehab 2 years ago, and relying on Norman to keep her stories straight and correct the mistakes she would constantly make while doing Hot Topics.
In my opinion, she's been slipping down the slope and this announcement is to cover the fact that Wendy can't hack it right now.

I hope she'll get better wigs while she's gone.

I knew it when I saw Wendy was on repeat today. I watch the first part of the show (in her apt) just to see how fucked up she is every day. So out of it. Even Norman looks weirded out by her. Did anyone really believe she wouldn't relapse on quarantine?

When they first started filming from her apartment, she got on camera and said she was so happy to be working from home. First week she's eating Slim Jim's on camera, and every day she have some kind of food in front of her and babbles on about all the delicious things she's eating in quarantine.
Last week she says she's living on nothing but water and vitamins. That is a drastic shift; it may not indicate drug use but it jumped out at me when she mentioned it as a serious shift in her outlook.

I knew she was in trouble when she denied she was in a sober living house in order to get sober. She said she was there (sober house) to clear her head or some bullshit like that.
She must now be surrounded by yes men & women. Her wigs and makeup look horrendous. She hasn't been up to par since she fainted on live TV (Statue of Liberty costume) on Halloween of 2017.

Weird how she ate that beef jerky. She opened it and then held a lighter underneath it, running it back and forth like she was cooking it. Whenever she talks about, or even thinks about , food, she always sucks in her cheeks like she was savoring the thought of eating. But when you're drinking early you don't have much of an appetite. She got a lot of crap on social media for eating on her show. She'd talk with her mouth full. Gross. She's a slow motion train wreck.

I've been following her career for 30 years, I've seen her childhood growing up pictures, elementary school high school college radio stations, she's been a woman all her life, she did get enormous breast implants but she said she'll take them out one day. The idea that she was born a man is a tired trope and has lost any element of humor decades ago.

She's like a fragile Puccini character who's going to die from heartache after a lot of suffering.

I'd say I'm shocked but not surprised. Everyone's been expecting this. You could see Wendy was fucked up every morning at 10 am, broadcasting from her tacky apartment. Tasha K serves it up rare but why tell the world what hospital Wendy's in? That's wrong.

I agree, naming the hospital didn't add to the story and makes it so the paps will stalk the area trying to get a shot. That is the last place that needs extra traffic right now.

Well last time Tasha even revealed the hospital room number that Kevin's mistress had their baby in!
Depending on how bad Wendy was, she might have had a chance to go to some facility in the middle of nowhere. She has the money to get any kind of medical attention she needs. Just like she shipped Kevin Jr overseas to get off drugs.

The paps already know where she is. No harm naming the hosp.
The last place I'd want to be during the Rona is in a NYC hospital. Pobrecita.

Manhattan hospitals aren’t that affected. It’s mostly Queens and Brooklyn that are overrun with Rona.

Season 12 will premiere on September 21 with Wendy in the studio.
I expect her to be very emotional after not doing a show in front of her live audience in over 6 months.
