00:00Wendy Williams condition is not getting any better. In fact, it is getting worse

00:05You know, of course that she was diagnosed with dementia and it's the same form that Bruce Willis has, right?

00:12And it is gotten temporal way worse. It is permanent according to these new filings and

00:21The Guardian is alarmed that information is getting out

00:25Wendy is being taken advantage of and they want to put a stop to all of it now, right?

00:30This is a financial guardian that was put in place by Wells Fargo Bank

00:34but the financial guardian is now really

00:38stepping up and

00:40Defending Wendy against what the Guardian sees as people trying to exploit her now

00:46Exploiter in terms of look

00:48I mean there was a big documentary on her and the Guardian was opposed to that even coming out

00:52Tried at the last minute to get it and and in these documents they say this was cruel this you know

00:58She was clearly not with it disheveled yet. They did it. Anyway take an advantage of their take an advantage of

01:05financially by people right and the Guardian says this is so alarming and I think

01:10The reason the Guardian wants things now private in all of these filings is because if they're not private

01:18It's gonna show everybody how vulnerable Wendy is

01:21And that she's gonna be exploited

01:23And so they want to redact as much as possible from the various documents

01:29That they're gonna have to file to maintain this guardianship

01:32Yeah, essentially they're just trying to protect Wendy

01:34But the biggest thing I felt like in this letter that was filed is by them saying permanently

01:39Incapacitated I mean to me that that sounds pretty bad because we got that photo

01:44I think just a few months ago in August she was at like a New Jersey

01:48Holistic shop or something and some fans spotted her and honestly when I saw the photo

01:52I thought she looked pretty good

01:53So I don't know I mean obviously you could dementia you you can look like you're doing great

01:58And maybe maybe she's not but it's obviously shows that Wendy's not doing very well right now

02:03I mean we never see her and I think you're right that the Guardian is

02:08Doesn't want all of that information out there to protect her not just for her image. That's part of it

02:13I'm sure but

02:16Financial guardian so they're worried about exploitation and look we've seen unfortunately we've seen some of the effects of this

02:24Condition because we've seen Bruce Willis go through it and his family at times has been more open and that they are want people to see

02:32What Bruce's life is like from time to time there's a difference because in Bruce Willis's case

02:38He's really being protected by the family exactly that's what I was gonna say that that's the difference

02:42He's not right. I mean she really doesn't have a family. She has a child, but you know

02:48look she had a very rancorous divorce and

02:52You know when you read this document. They're saying she has been taken advantage of left and right

02:59Hi, I'm Ava from Phoenix, Arizona

03:02I think we all want Wendy Williams to be protected from exploitation

03:08But there's also a desire from her fans to know that she is being protected and

03:13There's a concern there that if there's too much privacy and too much emphasis on protecting her privacy

03:18Then people aren't going to know that the people around her have her best interest at heart

03:24there are going to be a lot of questions regarding who these guardians are and

03:28What their authority is and how far they're willing to go to protect her privacy and are they in fact making the best?

03:35Decisions for her Ava you triggered me

03:39And I'll tell you why to me

03:41that's the problem that when fans think that they should be informed and

03:47Voice how they feel about something like this glad you said it

03:52But I just I just think that the legal system when you have a guardianship like this

03:57It needs to be looked at by the Guardian and not what the public wants

04:05You
