The former Wendy Williams Show host’s family is speaking out for the first time in this week’s PEOPLE cover story about what went down during this dark period, as Williams’ life devolved into the exact kind of drama she once would have gossiped about during her Hot Topics segment.

Trying to get ahead of the new documentary curve that will be airing on Lifetime “Where Is Wendy Williams?” her sister Wanda Finnie and niece Alex Finnie tell PEOPLE Williams is in a better place physically and mentally.  According to the family Wendy Williams is in a facility addressing cognitive issues (problems with a person’s ability to think, learn, remember, use judgement, and make decisions).

According to the family due to a lack of communication with Wendy Williams‘ guardian, “We cannot reach out to her, but she can reach out to us. And she is in a healing place emotionally. She’s not the person that you see in this film.”  [read more]
