Wendy Williams BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Wendy Williams just delivered her most headline-grabbing comeback in years with a pair of rare, star-powered public appearances at New York Fashion Week. On September 14, she stunned the front row at designer Bach Mai’s show in a chic black wrap dress cinched with a wide Gucci belt and her signature glam, reminding everyone of her original fashion queen status. Two days later, all eyes landed on her as she arrived at LaQuan Smith’s spring 2026 runway show dressed head-to-toe in a zebra-print fur jacket and coordinating pieces by the designer, completing the look with a flashing “W” chain and the kind of celebrity confidence that made her a TV legend. According to the Chicago Defender and iHeart, she was greeted with a standing ovation, and sat front row amid stars like Ice-T, Busta Rhymes, Lil' Kim, and Ari Lennox. When caught by TMZ, she said she felt “like a zillion dollars.”

Williams’s return to the fashion scene is especially significant given the persistent shadow of her health and legal battles. Following her 2023 diagnosis of frontotemporal dementia and aphasia, she has spent much of the past year under court-appointed guardianship. She recently underwent a medical evaluation that reaffirmed the dementia diagnosis, but the drama hasn’t stopped there. People magazine and Access Hollywood report a judge has just ordered Wendy to appear for a special “de bene esse” deposition by November 4, as part of the lawsuit over her controversial Lifetime documentary “Where is Wendy Williams?”, which aired in February. Her team and her guardian claim that the filmmakers exploited her condition, while the producers insist she gave full consent before her diagnosis.

Fans and the gossip world are eating up every new glimpse of Wendy, with her NYFW appearances going viral on Instagram and TikTok—praise pouring in for her style, energy, and sheer presence. “She looks so pretty and happy ohh I miss Wendy,” reads one typical comment, while others beg for her TV comeback and celebrate seeing her “doing GOOD.” While no official announcements have surfaced regarding her returning to TV or business endeavors, speculation about a comeback simmers beneath every sighting.

Charlamagne Tha God told Entertainment Tonight on September 21 that he just wants Wendy Williams to be happy, encapsulating the support churning across social and celebrity circles. For now, Wendy’s recent spate of appearances marks her most promising step back into the public eye, even as major legal and medical challenges continue behind the scenes.
