Wendy Williams fights to end guardianship after documentary reveals new claims

Just hours after TMZ's documentary on Wendy Williams premiered on Tubi, efforts to terminate her guardianship began moving forward.  

Sources with direct knowledge informed TMZ that Wendy signed an affidavit on Wednesday afternoon, formally requesting the judge to release her from guardianship. The document states that she has "regained capacity" and can now function independently.  

In the affidavit, Wendy also asserts that she does not have Frontotemporal Dementia, contradicting previous medical claims. The Tubi documentary, "TMZ Presents: Saving Wendy," highlights that the condition is progressive and does not improve, yet Wendy appears significantly better than she was two years ago.  

According to sources, Wendy is scheduled for a medical re-evaluation next Tuesday, with the doctor selected by the attorney handling her guardianship case. The following day, her lawyer plans to file an Emergency Order to Show Cause, which essentially means submitting a petition urging the judge to address the matter immediately.  

If the judge rejects the request to end the guardianship, Wendy intends to push for a jury trial, allowing jurors to decide if she is capable of managing her life without legal restrictions.  

In the documentary, Wendy expresses that she feels like a prisoner, unable to enjoy fresh air, access the internet, receive phone calls, or have visitors, along with several other limitations.  

"TMZ Presents: Saving Wendy" is available to stream for free on Tubi.
