Last time Wendy Williams shared a health update

Williams has not made an appearance on her own talk show this season as right before the start of production she tested positive for coronavirus (COVID-19). However, further “medical issues” prevented her from coming back and Williams has been gone ever since.

The last health update Williams gave fans came via a written statement posted on her show’s Instagram profile.

“As everyone knows, my health has been a hot topic. I’m making progress but it’s just one of those things that’s taking longer than we expected,” read the statement on Instagram. “I’m a woman of a certain age, and I know enough to listen to my doctors and will return to my purple chair as soon as we all agree I’m ready.”

Williams didn’t forget about her co-hosts (her fans) and thanked them for their support adding, “I have heard your prayers and comments and feel all the love! You are everything to me. I love spending my mornings with you all and I’m doing everything I can to get back to work, but right now Wendy has to focus on Wendy. I love you for watching.”
