Wendy Williams’ Former DJ Reveals Staffers Were Unaware of the Extent of Her Illnesses
In a shocking revelation, Wendy Williams’ former DJ, DJ Boof, has come forward to claim that the staff of her talk show were unaware of the true extent of her illnesses. Speaking on “TMZ Live,” DJ Boof expressed his concern for Williams and revealed that while people knew something was wrong, they didn’t fully understand the severity of her condition.
“I don’t think no one knew exactly to the extent how bad it was,” DJ Boof said. “I felt like people knew something was up with her, but they didn’t really know. I knew it because I’ve been around it. It’s sad to see something like that happen to her. She needs help.”
According to DJ Boof, he last spoke to Williams about a month ago and discovered that her court-ordered guardianship team was not keeping her family informed about her condition. He believes that Florida, where her family resides, would be a better place for her to receive the 24-hour care she needs.
This recent revelation from DJ Boof is a complete turnaround from four years ago when he claimed that the staff of “The Wendy Williams Show” were too afraid to speak up about Williams’ issues. He cited the toxic environment as the reason for his departure from the show.
However, during his last encounter with Williams, DJ Boof noted that she seemed to be doing great and was in good health. This contradicts the current situation and raises concerns about the progression of her illnesses.
Last week, Williams’ team announced that she had been diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia and aphasia. These neurodegenerative conditions, induced by years of alcohol abuse, were revealed by her son, Kevin Hunter Jr., in the Lifetime documentary “Where Is Wendy Williams?”
In response to her diagnoses, Williams released a statement to her fans, requesting time and space to focus on her well-being. She expressed gratitude for the support and encouragement she has received from her devoted fans.
The news of Williams’ undisclosed illnesses and the lack of awareness among her talk show staff has shocked many. It highlights the importance of open communication and support within the workplace, especially in situations where an individual’s health and well-being are at stake. As Williams continues to navigate her health journey, her fans remain hopeful for her recovery and send their best wishes during this challenging time.
