Baby. 7 00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:25,440 Speaker 1: Now today in the latest, we have Wendy Williams. Now, 8 00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:27,880 Speaker 1: you guys know I've been updating you on Wendy Williams. 9 00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:31,280 Speaker 1: We had talked a few episodes back about you know, 10 00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:33,960 Speaker 1: Wendy Williams Mother's Day and how that would be spent 11 00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:36,920 Speaker 1: in Prior to that, in the same week, we also 12 00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:40,360 Speaker 1: talked about Wendy Williams and her testing and I was 13 00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:42,879 Speaker 1: told at that time, this was some weeks ago, that 14 00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:45,600 Speaker 1: Wendy Williams was still undergoing testing, but it was near 15 00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:49,440 Speaker 1: the end of the testing. And as of yesterday it 16 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:54,320 Speaker 1: has been confirmed ish that Wendy Williams has allegedly completed 17 00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:56,760 Speaker 1: her testing. Now, the reason why I say ish is 18 00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:01,240 Speaker 1: because Wendy williams attorney Joe Tacopina, has come out swinging 19 00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:06,120 Speaker 1: back against the conversation and the stories and the update 20 00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:10,840 Speaker 1: provided by Wendy Williams guardian Sabrina Morsey that Wendy Williams 21 00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:14,319 Speaker 1: has completed her testing, and then, according to a source 22 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:17,440 Speaker 1: from People Magazine, People Magazine has a source. According to 23 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:22,880 Speaker 1: a source, Wendy Williams has been diagnosed again with frontal 24 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:27,000 Speaker 1: temporal dementia, which is what Wendy Williams was fighting hard 25 00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:28,840 Speaker 1: to prove that she did not have. Now, all of 26 00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:32,120 Speaker 1: this is alleged because again Wendy Williams attorney, I talked 27 00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:33,760 Speaker 1: to him. I spoke with him, and he tells me 28 00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:37,080 Speaker 1: that is not what happened. That is not true. This 29 00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:40,160 Speaker 1: is not where we are. So let's back up before 30 00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:43,119 Speaker 1: I get into what Wendy Williams attorney, Joe Tukapina told 31 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:46,480 Speaker 1: me about Wendy Williams, I want to give you guys 32 00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 1: just a glimpse into the story of what went down. 33 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:53,600 Speaker 1: So reports surface that Wendy Williams had completed all of 34 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:57,880 Speaker 1: her testing, neurological testing, scanned all of the things. Because 35 00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:00,320 Speaker 1: right now a court is trying to determine if Wendy 36 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 1: can make decisions for herself or not, if she needs 37 00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 1: to be in the guardianship or not in all of 38 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 1: the things. Now when the reports came out, I was 39 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:10,639 Speaker 1: provided with and all of the outlets were provided with 40 00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 1: a letter to the judge from an attorney for Sabrina Morrissey, 41 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 1: who is Wendy Williams guardian and the letter stated that 42 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 1: Wendy Williams was done all testing, including scans you know, 43 00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:28,360 Speaker 1: and including neurological testing, and that at this point, because 44 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 1: of the A and E lawsuit in the time that 45 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 1: they would need to figure things out about that lawsuit, 46 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:37,240 Speaker 1: the guardianship was requesting that Wendy Williams stay in her 47 00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 1: guardianship until November fifth, twenty twenty five, so that were 48 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 1: asking for a three month extension. The extension is of 49 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 1: a stay that the anti lawsuit already had out, basically 50 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:47,679 Speaker 1: because Wendy Williams said, look, I don't even want to 51 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 1: be suiting these people. I didn't make the decision. I 52 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:51,920 Speaker 1: don't want to suit these people so any and the 53 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 1: attorneys in the guardianship said, oh, okay, cool, if you 54 00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:56,040 Speaker 1: don't want to do it, we ain't gonna force you 55 00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:58,080 Speaker 1: do nothing. Let's hold on this. Let's see if Wendy 56 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:00,359 Speaker 1: can make her own decisions and then we'll come back 57 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 1: to this now. I spoke to the attorney for the 58 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 1: anti lawsuit, the attorney who is representing Sabrina Morsey and 59 00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:10,680 Speaker 1: Windy Williams in this lawsuit, and that attorney tells me 60 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 1: that because there are also reports basically stating that because 61 00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 1: of the alleged testing that happened with Wendy Williams, Wendy 62 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:21,120 Speaker 1: Williams is indefinitely stuck in this guardianship, like you know, 63 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 1: final decision had been made. That is not true. I 64 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:26,120 Speaker 1: spoke to the A and E lawyer who told me 65 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 1: that it's not true. The additional three months will requested 66 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 1: only because the anti lawsuit doesn't want to pick back up. 67 00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 1: The lawyer for the guardian says they don't want to 68 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 1: move forward with anything until they figure out who they're 69 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 1: even dealing with, Like, are we going to be dealing 70 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 1: with Wendy Williams in this lawsuit moving forward? If we are, 71 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 1: she says she doesn't want the lawsuit, so will it 72 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 1: even go forward or will there be another guardian appointed? 73 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 1: Because Sabrina Morsey has already said, I don't even want 74 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 1: nothing to do with this no more. I need to 75 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:55,080 Speaker 1: figure out, you know, what's best for her, but I 76 00:03:55,120 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 1: want to step away right now. In the reports, you know, 77 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 1: they referenced this letter that was sent to the judge 78 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 1: in the letter I received the letter. I read through 79 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 1: the letter. They do make it clear and they say 80 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:10,240 Speaker 1: that Wendy Williams has completed the testing. Now. I reached 81 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 1: out to Joe Takapina the minute I saw these stories 82 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 1: and the minute I received the documents, I reached out 83 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:18,360 Speaker 1: to Joe Checapina, which is Wendy's attorney, and I said, okay, look, 84 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 1: here's what is being reported. I've been reaching up and 85 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 1: saying the contact and following up with you, trying to 86 00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 1: figure out what's going on. It's been quiet on the 87 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:30,840 Speaker 1: Wendy front, and there's been nothing now. At one point 88 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 1: there were also reports that Wendy didn't even want to 89 00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 1: take the testing, which I was told, you know, was 90 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 1: not true either. But Joe Tekapina responds to me and 91 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:42,920 Speaker 1: he says reports that medical testing or any information or 92 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,919 Speaker 1: reference in a letter that medical testing for Wendy Williams 93 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 1: is completely He called it bullshit. He says the letter 94 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 1: submitted by attorneys for her guardian, stating that there are 95 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 1: complete tests and that Wendy has allegedly been diagnosed again 96 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:58,880 Speaker 1: with dementia are false. Now he also went off because 97 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:02,400 Speaker 1: here's the so like, for instance, when Britney Spears was 98 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:06,159 Speaker 1: in her conservatorship, we always had conversations around like who 99 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 1: her conservatives were, her dad, and how much money was 100 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 1: being made and how much money was in spend and 101 00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:13,720 Speaker 1: all the things. And they talked about, you know, her care, 102 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:15,599 Speaker 1: like where her day to day look like why she 103 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 1: needed supervision, all the things when they were fighting to 104 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:19,719 Speaker 1: try and keep her in it. But we never found 105 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:23,720 Speaker 1: out what Britney Spears's medical condition was because a hippo 106 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 1: looss these things were supposed to be kept private, right, 107 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 1: So Britney spears situation is somewhat similar to Wendy's because 108 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:35,040 Speaker 1: there's a medical diagnosis needed in order to make the 109 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:37,600 Speaker 1: decision on whether Wendy should or should not be released 110 00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 1: from the conservatorship. Now, Wendy Williams medical situation is on 111 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 1: Front Street because Wendy Williams came to the Breakfast Club 112 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,280 Speaker 1: and she talked about the claims that she had been 113 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:50,680 Speaker 1: diagnosed with dementia and the fact that she did not 114 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:52,280 Speaker 1: feel like she had it. She felt like she could 115 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:55,160 Speaker 1: make decisions for herself. She shouldn't be, you know, in 116 00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 1: the type of like living situation she's in. She calls 117 00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:00,880 Speaker 1: it a luxury prison and all the things. So her 118 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 1: diagnosis or lack thereof, was already on front Street because 119 00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 1: she talked about herself. But in these documents they couldn't 120 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 1: mention what the medical record said. All is said was 121 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:13,600 Speaker 1: that they were complete. People Magazine does this story, and 122 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 1: People Magazine has the information that Wendy Williams was allegedly 123 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 1: again diagnosed with frontal temporal dementia, but they don't cite 124 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:24,640 Speaker 1: their source. Of course they can't because it's illegal to 125 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 1: be discussing people's medical information. So her attorney is going off, 126 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 1: he says, regarding the leak medical diagnoses of Wendy Williams, 127 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 1: this is yet another outrageous tactic and a blatant violation 128 00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:37,640 Speaker 1: of Wendy's fundamental rights as a human being. Let me 129 00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:40,160 Speaker 1: be clear, the claim is false and is being spread 130 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 1: by a party who has vested interest in keeping Wendy 131 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:47,039 Speaker 1: trapped under the successive and restrictive guardianship. The critical questions 132 00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 1: are these, where is the actual medical report supporting this leak, 133 00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 1: and who is the doctor that is willing to go 134 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:55,560 Speaker 1: under oath and face cross examination by me so the 135 00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:59,320 Speaker 1: truth can be exposed. He went off and Joe Takapina 136 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:01,680 Speaker 1: ain't none to play with. Okay, he is a shark. 137 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:05,680 Speaker 1: He is nothing to play with. Now. Look, I have 138 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,600 Speaker 1: reached back out to the attorney listed for the Guardian, 139 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:11,480 Speaker 1: but for some reason they don't want to talk to us. 140 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 1: I found a name and a location for the attorney 141 00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 1: for Tabrina Morrissey, who is Wendy Williams Guardian. So I 142 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 1: looked him up online through you know, a little system 143 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,000 Speaker 1: I have was able to get his cell phone number. 144 00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:23,640 Speaker 1: I call him, I say, hey, it's one of the 145 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:26,160 Speaker 1: roaser from the Breakfast Club. He instantly says I can't 146 00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,880 Speaker 1: talk and hangs up on me. I don't think that 147 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 1: her attorneys are too fond of the Breakfast Club platform, 148 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 1: just because of, you know, the platform that we gave Wendy. 149 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 1: I can't say that for certain, but it feels that way. 150 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 1: I would love to be in contact with them though, 151 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 1: because you know, when things like this happen, where you 152 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 1: have an attorney basically saying, y'all are leaking medical information. 153 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:49,840 Speaker 1: That's a huge claim. He's alleging that, and he's saying 154 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:53,600 Speaker 1: they're only spreading this because they want to make it 155 00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 1: look like she still needs to be here, because they 156 00:07:56,920 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 1: have an interest, they gained something off of this. ID 157 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 1: love to have a conversation with both sides of it. 158 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:03,320 Speaker 1: So I mean I've reached out of reach out twice. 159 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 1: I will also try and call again and if I 160 00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 1: can get any more details on it, y'all know, i'd 161 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:10,040 Speaker 1: be right back here in the latest with it. At 162 00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:11,960 Speaker 1: the end of the day. There's always a lot to 163 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 1: talk about and I would love to know for you 164 00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 1: guys that are listening. I know you know Wendy Williams 165 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:18,840 Speaker 1: and everything happening with her. A lot of times when 166 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 1: I see my low writers out and about y'all, that's 167 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 1: the number one thing that you guys ask me, it's like, Hey, 168 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:26,560 Speaker 1: how's Wendy. I haven't spoken to Wendy personally in months 169 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 1: at this point, but I have been speaking to her 170 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 1: attorney as much as I can, just trying to figure 171 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:33,000 Speaker 1: out what's going on and keep you guys up the 172 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 1: date and stay up to date. But I want to 173 00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 1: know what you guys think like, do you guys think 174 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 1: that the reports are valid? And again there was a 175 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:44,560 Speaker 1: letter submitted to the judge saying that this happened on 176 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:47,640 Speaker 1: paper from the attorney for the guardianship, saying that Wendy 177 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 1: had completed those tests. Low Riders at me, be outside, 178 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:58,560 Speaker 1: we outside, we outside, outside, every other page, Lauren la Rosa, everywhere. 179 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:03,040 Speaker 1: Do you think the testing is or do you side 180 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:06,200 Speaker 1: with Wendy's attorney Joe Takapina. You believe the allegations of 181 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:08,600 Speaker 1: him saying, Hey, they're doing this because they have a 182 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:11,040 Speaker 1: vested interest that never happened. This is all a part 183 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:13,840 Speaker 1: of a plan to allegedly keep Wendy into the conservative ship. 184 00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:15,400 Speaker 1: It gets tricky out here, but at the end of 185 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:17,559 Speaker 1: the day, there's a lot to talk about Low Riders, 186 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:18,880 Speaker 1: and every time you guys join me to do it, 187 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 1: I appreciate you.
