Wendy Williams is struggling with her sobriety, the daytime TV host tearfully admitted on her show today and is living in a sober house as she continues treatment for alcohol and pill addiction.
“This is my autobiographical story, and I’m living it,” she said. Watch the emotional admission, below:
Following Wendy’s revelation, a detailed report surfaced on the DailyMail, describing the last weeks of Wendy’s life living in a sobriety house.
According to reports, Wendy reportedly gets picked up from a sobriety home every morning at 7am and transported to her NYC studio. After the show, her husband reportedly takes her back to the halfway house.
Wendy’s drug and alcohol binge allegedly began after she hired a private investigator to follow her husband, who was reportedly having an affair with his longtime mistress. An alleged altercation with her husband resulted in Wendy suffering a fractured arm, which reportedly led to depression and her addiction to alcohol and prescription pills.
“She confronted Kevin and during the row she fell to the ground and broke her shoulder,” a source told TheDailyMail. “But after the shoulder injury Wendy started drinking and popping pills again,” she added.
Wendy went on hiatus from her show in 2019 and returned early in January, but continued treatment at the sober house.

Wendy Williams just bravely admitted, live on her show, that she’s been living at a Sober House and attending meetings around the city with others who struggle with addiction.
