Wendy Williams back in rehab for substance abuse issues
2022-09-16
[PAGESIX] Wendy Williams has checked back into rehab to treat her substance abuse issues amid her fallout with production company Debmar-Mercury, Page Six has exclusively learned.

"It’s gotten worse," our source shares. "She went from wine to straight up vodka."

It’s unknown where Williams is receiving treatment, but she previously sought help from centers in Florida and Long Island City, New York.

We’re told Williams’ health and addiction issues worsened after her former daytime talk show’s production company allegedly "refused" to get her help.

"They turned their backs on her," our source now explains. "They had too much control over someone so vulnerable."

Williams’ ex-husband Kevin Hunter previously claimed to Page Six that Debmar-Mercury wouldn’t engage in any behaviors that would take the shock jock, 58, away from her once-iconic purple chair.

#2  Saw a picture of her recently, can't seem to find it again, where she looked like she was channeling Luther Mahoney right after Meldrick Lewis beat on him.
