WENDY WILLIAMS DOES NOT HAVE FRONTOTEMPORAL DEMENTIA

Wendy Williams has received a significant medical update that could dramatically affect her long-running legal situation. A leading neurologist who recently evaluated her has concluded that Wendy does not have frontotemporal dementia — the condition previously cited in court as justification for keeping her in a strict guardianship for more than three years.

According to sources with direct knowledge, Wendy completed an extensive set of neurological tests in New York City. After reviewing the full series of exams, the specialist informed her legal team late last month that she does not show signs consistent with frontotemporal dementia. This new medical assessment directly challenges an earlier evaluation referenced by her court-appointed guardian, who had claimed she tested positive for the disorder.

Frontotemporal dementia is widely described by medical professionals as a progressive condition that steadily worsens over time. Yet Wendy, who has remained sober for three years, has shown what insiders call notable neurological stability during that period — despite still being bound by the same guardianship restrictions.

Wendy’s legal team is now preparing to file new court documents within the next two weeks. Their aim is to prompt a hearing where they will formally request that the judge end the guardianship entirely. If the judge refuses, her attorney Joe Tacopina is reportedly prepared to escalate the matter by demanding a jury trial, a legal option that is rarely invoked but still available in certain guardianship disputes.

Outside the courtroom, Wendy has continued to reengage socially. She recently attended the wedding of Tacopina’s son, Chris, who married Emma White. Chris is also poised to receive his second Stanley Cup ring for his work as the Florida Panthers’ Data Analytics Manager.

As her legal team moves forward, this updated medical diagnosis may become the most important development yet — potentially opening the door for Wendy to regain full control of her personal and financial decision-making.
