Wendy Williams’ ex-husband had a baby with his longtime mistress while still married to Williams

Hunter met his longtime mistress Sharina Hudson through The Breakfast Club host, Charlamagne Tha God. Charlemagne and Hudson grew up together in South Carolina.

At the time of Hunter and Hudson’s meeting, Hunter says Hudson was an aspiring model that he was interested in managing. Their relationship eventually turned physical.

“He [Charlamagne] really liked shorty [Hudson]. [Charlamagne] used to tow her to me like, ‘Yo, she the baddest girl in town, nobody can’t get her,” Hunter said in an interview with Tasha K. “He [Charlamagne] did not expect for us to hit it off the way we did. I didn’t expect it, I know she [Hudson] didn’t.”

In 2017, The Daily Mail released an exposé of Hunter and Hudson’s affair. The report alleges that Hunter split his time between Williams and Hudson. A year later, rumors about Hudson’s pregnancy began.

Hudson reportedly gave birth to her first child with Hunter in Philadelphia in 2019. Williams announced that after over 20 years of marriage, she and Hunter were divorcing. 

Wendy Williams jokes about her ex-husband’s baby

Despite the emotional turmoil of her divorce, Williams isn’t exempt from joking about her own situation – or at minimum, throwing shade. 

“Kevin has a daughter. Kevin had a major indiscretion that he will have to deal with for the rest of his life,” Williams said in an interview with The New York Times as reported by Access Hollywood. “An indiscretion that I will not deal with.” 

Williams says she learned of the affair earlier than many believe but that she kept quiet until she sorted out her affairs privately. 

In a new Instagram post, Williams pokes fun at her ex and his baby daughter. “Look @ me with my baby girl. I’m not the only Hunter with a baby situation,” Williams captioned a photo of her holding a friend’s baby.
