The Wendy Williams Show has been cancelled and will go off air by June, 2022 ending.

The controversial talkshow show faces extinction after 13 successful seasons amid the failing health of the anchor.

Lovebscott, a source close to Wendy’s production crew, confirmed the development, saying the show will be replaced by another show to be anchored by current guest host Sherri Shepherd.

“The producers informed everyone that the Wendy show was being canceled at the end of June. Then in the next breath, they hired everyone to work on the new Sherri show”, the source confirmed.

Wendy, 57, suffers from an autoimmune disorder graves diseases. In May, 2020 she went on medical leave and was temporarily replaced by a number of guest hosts to anchor her show.

In November, 2021, it was reported that the media personality had completely lost blood circulation in her legs and feet and was confined to a wheelchair. Wendy was also showing early symptoms of dementia.

Early this year Wendy’s bank account with over seven million dollars was frozen. According to American Bank Wells Fargo, Wendy was financially being exploited and was advised to get a guardian.

Sherri Shepherd’s deal to replace Wendy has already been finalised.
