Contrary to popular belief, Wendy Williams is not a married woman. Or at least, thatβs the case according to her rep William Selby.

For context, after a conversation between Williams and Hollywood Unlockedβs Jason Lee, word began to spread that the popular daytime talk show host had become a married woman and was betrothed to a NYPD officer named Henry.
βShe says, βIβm married.β Iβm like, βWhat?β Sheβs like, βI got married,ββ Lee explained according to Page Six. βIβm like, βYou got married when?β And sheβs like, βI got married last week.ββ
However, Selby was quick to discount Williamsβ claim, explaining that she instead was excited about her new, committed, relationship but that the focus remains on her new business endeavors.
βShe wants to take things slow and really put her focus into launching the podcast,β Selby explained per People. βWendy is in a sweet spot in her life where she can stop, breathe and smell the roses. Everyone knows Wendy has been a workhorse her entire life, and she is just looking to get back on the horse.β
He later added, βWendy is excited about everything new in her life and her main priority is her health and shooting her first episode of her podcast. Thatβs the focus right now.β
Despite her repβs words, Williams herself insisted that she indeed had tied the knot and further reiterated to Lee in a separate phone call saying:
βEverybody seems to have a problem with that. Iβm married,β she said in the call. βIβm married! I donβt care who knows it. Will sees no point in me getting married. But you know what? Fuck Will. Fourteen years Iβve known him. Iβve always said fuck himβ¦in a good way, you know?β
To be quite honest, things have been going weirdly for Wendy for awhile now so unless and until I see some official documentation, we may just have to take her word for it.
The Root continues to send its support and well wishes for Wendy and her health and healing.
