From the New York Post: Wendy Williams was taken away from her New York assisted living facility by ambulance Monday after cops were called in for a wellness check when the ex-talk show queen tossed a handwritten note out the window begging for help.
“Help! Wendy!!” the note said.
The call came in at about 11:15 a.m. soon after the 60-year-old — who has been diagnosed with dementia — tossed the note from the window of her fifth-story room, police sources told The Post.
The former TV star, who has been holed up in the facility’s memory ward as she fights to end her court-ordered guardianship, was later spotted at the window waving her arms at a Post reporter while speaking on the phone.
Soon after, Williams silently walked out of the facility — escorted by a handful of cops — and was helped into the waiting ambulance.
The report explains that Williams has been diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia and aphasia, and has been seeking to end the guardianship she’s been under since 2022.
Williams has disputed claims by her guardian, Sabrina Morrissey, that she had “become cognitively impaired, permanently disabled, and incapacitated” from her dementia battle.
Williams told TMZ in a recent phone interview that she is being held in a “prison” and is “not allowed” to go outside of her own free will.
