Wendy!!&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>Police arrived at around 11.15am for a wellness check on the broadcaster, and photos showed her wearing a T-shirt, black leggings and a long sweater as she left the facility looking sombre. <\/p>\n<p>Officers assisted her as she climbed into the ambulance. <\/p>\n<p>\nWendy&#8217;s representative has not yet responded to a request for comment from Page Six.<\/p>\n<p>\nLast month, TMZ reported Wendy, who has denied having frontotemporal dementia, formally requested a judge to terminate her guardianship. <\/p>\n<p>\nWendy, who had previously fired her court-appointed attorney, claimed in an affidavit she has &#8220;regained (the) capacity&#8221; to function without her legal guardian, Sabrina Morrissey.<\/p>\n<p>\nOn 18 February, Wendy was scheduled for a medical examination to reassess her condition. <\/p>\n<p>\nSources told TMZ if her request to end the guardianship was denied, she would &#8220;demand&#8221; a jury trial.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe former broadcaster addressed her situation in an emotional interview with &#8216;The Breakfast Club&#8217; in January, stating: &#8220;I am definitely isolated\u2026 I keep the door closed. I watch TV. I listen to the radio. I watch the window. I sit here, and my life goes by.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nWendy also alleged she only had $15 to her name. <\/p>\n<p>\nHer niece, Alex Finnie, participated in the conversation, saying Wendy  &#8220;sounds great&#8221; and not &#8220;like an incapacitated person&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>\nWendy has been largely out of the public eye since leaving &#8216;The Wendy Williams Show&#8217; in 2021, with her guardianship becoming a major topic of discussion the following year. <\/p>\n<p>\nShe has, however, made public appearances in Florida for her son\u2019s college graduation and her father\u2019s birthday celebration.<\/p>\n<p>\nWendy was scheduled to do a phone interview with &#8216;The View&#8217; on 14 March.<\/p>\n<p><!-- Pagination --><\/p>\n<p><!-- playbuzz --><br \/>\n<!-- end playbuzz--><\/p>\n<p><!-- \n\n<div data-cn-project=\"femalefirst\">\n    \n<\/div>\n\n --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n<!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<p>    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.femalefirst.co.uk\/celebrity\/wendy-williams-taken-assisted-living-home-ambulance-after-dropped-note-paparazzi-pleading-help-1414946.html?f=rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>10 March 2025 Wendy Williams was taken from her assisted living home by ambulance after she dropped a note to paparazzi pleading for help.
