Wendy Williams has just returned from a recovery center and already has plans.
In her first interview since leaving the spa, Williams sat down with WBLS radio personality JusNik at the 2022 Black Women’s Community Circle Of Sisters event to talk about the future. Chief among these plans is a new podcast, the Wendy Williams Experience.
What’s not on the show right now is another TV talk show. Williams said she loves doing her show but is “ready to do something new with my life. After 14 years, it really became a liability…” Williams, 58, hosted her nationally syndicated talk show from 2008 to 2021. She left the show when illness made it impossible for her to continue, and she had a very public battle for control of her finances.
Williams, whose career has spanned radio, television, books, clothing, jewelry and live events, said she will now take time for herself.
At the Circle of Sisters event, she spoke about lymphedema, a swelling of tissue, especially in her feet. “However, I refuse to get into a wheelchair,” Williams told the crowd, despite using one occasionally. She also has the autoimmune disease known as Graves’ disease.
During her podcast, which will be released in a few weeks, Williams hinted that she would travel. “It’s going to take me a year of my life to fly and do and see things I’ve never done … as long as I’m young enough,” she said.
