Wendy Williams is not one to shy away from speaking her mind, especially when it comes to her current living situation. The former talk show host has been open about her frustrations with her conservatorship and the conditions at her assisted living facility.
In a recent five-minute phone interview on NewsNation's Banfield, Williams didn't hold back as she discussed the lack of control she has over her daily life while living in her facility bedroom.
"I feel like I have no freedom to do anything," she shared on February 27th. Despite finding some solace in the facility's gym, Williams expressed her dissatisfaction with the conditions on the fifth-floor memory unit where she has been residing for the past year.
"It's called 'the memory unit', for people who don't remember anything," Williams explained. "I've met the other residents here and I've been here for almost a year now, and it's just suffocating. It's like living in a bubble."
She went on to reveal that the residents in the memory unit require medication, assistance with basic tasks like showering and brushing their teeth. Williams couldn't help but question why she was placed in this unit in the first place.
"I mean, it's called the memory unit, right? So why am I here?" she exclaimed. "I have no idea, but what I do know is that I am paying $18,000 a month for a small bedroom, a bathroom, and a window."
Having been in the assisted living facility for the past three years, the New Jersey native is ready to leave. "I'm ready to get out of here. I'm ready to get out of the Guardian's grip," Williams shared, describing her current living situation as "suffocating" and "lonely."
In a previous interview on The Breakfast Club, Williams had declared, "I am not cognitively impaired, but I feel like I am in prison." She even expressed her willingness to undergo testing to prove that she is not suffering from any cognitive decline.
"They have accused me of having frontal temporal dementia and being incapacitated," Williams told Banfield. "So I feel like the best way to prove them wrong is by speaking out and engaging with people."
Despite her struggles, Williams remains determined to fight for her freedom and prove that she is still mentally capable. With a strong support system and her unwavering determination, she is determined to break free from her conservatorship and regain control of her life.
