Wendy Williams Says She Had ‘No Idea’ Ex-Husband Filed Lawsuit in Her Name: ‘He’s a Money-Grubber’

Wendy Williams is speaking out about her ex-husband Kevin Hunter’s latest legal move.

Speaking to TMZ on Thursday, June 19, the TV mogul said she had “no idea” Hunter was filing a $250 million lawsuit on her behalf, suing her legal guardian, Sabrina Morrissey, and the judge presiding over her guardianship case, Lisa Sokoloff.

“Nor do I want him to be a part of my life like that, no,” Williams continued. “Because I’m divorced forever.”

Williams and Hunter were married for more than two decades before divorcing in 2019.

“He’s a money-grubber; he’s always been that way,” the former talk show host added of Hunter. “It’s good to know that he’s doing such evil things — again.”

Of her outlook on the lawsuit Hunter filed on June 17, Williams said, “He won’t win.”

Williams has recently asked to be freed from her legal guardianship, which was first ordered in spring 2022. Morrissey has been the only person with unfettered access to Williams under her guardianship.

Williams was later diagnosed with primary progressive aphasia and frontotemporal dementia (FTD), her medical team announced in February 2024.

On Jan. 16, Williams made an appearance on The Breakfast Club for a rare interview with Charlamagne Tha God.

“I am not cognitively impaired but I feel like I am in prison,” she said at the time.

“Listen, this system is broken, this system that I am in. This system has falsified a lot,” she said, noting she does not have access to her money. “For the last three years, I have been caught up in the system.”
