Fears For Wendy: Williams' Friends Worried Divorce May Spark Another Relapse

Wendy Williams' friends fear her divorce from estranged husband Kevin Hunter will lead to another relapse, RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned.
"Everyone around her right now thinks that she is going to crash and burn," a source close to the 54-year-old talk show queen revealed, noting, "She is alone and has no accountability. This is a recipe for disaster!"
As RadarOnline.com previously reported, Williams filed for divorce from from her husband of 21 years on April 10 in New Jersey.
Just weeks before, on March 26 Williams was rushed to the hospital suffering a horrific relapse on alcohol after she learned that Hunter, 47, allegedly had a secret baby girl with his mistress, Sharina Hudson.
Following her relapse, Williams announced she was moving out of her sober living home.
Now that Williams is no longer surrounded by sober peers, the worried source told RadarOnline.com that "it could just be a matter of time before she is drunk or high again."
"To think that Wendy isn't going to be hitting the bottle to deal with this is just ludicrous," the insider continued. "Kevin was her entire world for two decades and, at the end of the day, Wendy is still just another struggling addict."
According to multiple reports, Hunter was fired as executive producer from his ex-wife's hit talk show — and the source revealed the ousting has been a long time coming.
"Everyone on her staff hates Kevin and they are so glad that she finally got the courage to leave him," the insider said.
