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

For context, after a conversation between Williams and Hollywood Unlockedโs 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.
โShe says, โIโm married.โ Iโm like, โWhat?โ Sheโs like, โI got married,โโ Lee explained according to Page Six. โIโm like, โYou got married when?โ And sheโs like, โI got married last week.โโ
However, Selby was quick to discount Williamsโ claim, explaining that she instead was excited about her new, committed, relationship but that the focus remains on her new business endeavors.
โShe wants to take things slow and really put her focus into launching the podcast,โ Selby explained per People. โWendy 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.โ
He later added, โWendy is excited about everything new in her life and her main priority is her health and shooting her first episode of her podcast. Thatโs the focus right now.โ
Despite her repโs words, Williams herself insisted that she indeed had tied the knot and further reiterated to Lee in a separate phone call saying:
โEverybody seems to have a problem with that. Iโm married,โ she said in the call. โIโm married! I donโt care who knows it. Will sees no point in me getting married. But you know what? Fuck Will. Fourteen years Iโve known him. Iโve always said fuck himโฆin a good way, you know?โ
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.
