Wendy Williams' Lawyer Blasts Report of Alleged Diagnosis of Dementia, Aphasia

Wendy Williams' guardianship was extended to November 5, 2025, after medical tests reaffirmed diagnoses of frontotemporal dementia and aphasia, despite her legal team's dispute.

  • On Aug. 12, 2025, Wendy Williams underwent a significant number of tests, leading to a re-diagnosis of frontotemporal dementia and aphasia, prompting a three-month guardianship extension through Nov. 5, 2025.
  • In 2022, Wells Fargo filed a guardianship petition citing undue influence and financial exploitation concerns, with her 2023 diagnosis of frontotemporal dementia and aphasia informing the case.
  • TMZ reports she underwent extensive tests, and sources claimed the results show frontotemporal dementia and aphasia, while Joe Tacopina said `Wendy’s leaked medical diagnosis is false`.
  • Meanwhile, Morrissey asked the court to delay A&E litigation until the guardianship decision, after Williams' lawyer challenged alleged test results on August 13, 2025.
