Wendy Williams diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia
Wendy Williams was rumored to have dementia, a few years ago. However, when she returned to the public eye, she was mostly normal. Before her myriad of health issues, she was the leading gossip talk show host. For years, Wendy had been the gossip queen. This ranged from hosting on the radio to doing her own gossip column. Sadly, official news has broken confirming the dementia rumors. In addition, she was diagnosed with aphasia.
Wendy Williams actually is the second high profile celebrity to have this diagnosis. Bruce Willis is also suffering from this cruel disease. Once one of the leading men in Hollywood, Willis has been out of the spotlight for the past five years. Meanwhile, the disease has progressed, and it is understood that he’s in the final stages. Thankfully, Wendy’s diagnosis has not progressed to these levels. Actually, she is chronicling her journey with her Lifetime docuseries.
Wendy Williams is preparing to launch her new Lifetime series. Two days ahead of the premiere, Wendy shared some information in a press release. She and her team have officially announced that she is currently afflicted from frontotemporal dementia and aphasia. This disease impacts a person’s speech, behavior, and disposition. According to Wendy’s team, these diseases have presented some significant hurdles in her life. However, Wendy is continuing to work, in spite of all.
