In a significant turn of events, Wendy Williams has achieved a perfect score on a recent psychiatric evaluation, intensifying discussions about her ongoing guardianship. The 60-year-old media personality underwent the assessment at Lenox Hill Hospital after expressing concerns about her living conditions in an assisted living facility.
Williams has been under a court-appointed guardianship since 2022, following health issues that raised questions about her cognitive abilities. She has consistently challenged the necessity of the guardianship, stating that she is “not cognitively impaired” and comparing her stay at the facility to imprisonment.
The recent evaluation, in which Williams scored 10 out of 10, assessed her alertness and orientation. These results are anticipated to play a crucial role in her legal efforts to regain independence. Her caretaker, Ginalisa Monterroso, who played a pivotal role in initiating the evaluation, emphasized that the findings confirm Williams’ mental competence.
Family members, including her brother Tommy Williams, have publicly supported her bid for autonomy, highlighting her robust mental and physical health.
As the situation unfolds, the court will consider the evaluation results to determine the future of Williams’ guardianship arrangement.
