Wendy Williams Reportedly Rushed To Hospital For 'Psychiatric Services,' Hours After Revealing Breakthrough Covid Case Amid 'Ongoing Health Issues'

Wendy Williams has reportedly been rushed to the hospital, hours after the talk show host's team revealed she had contracted Covid-19 even though she was allegedly vaccinated.
According to The Sun, NYPD was called to Wendy's high-rise apartment building in New York City on Tuesday to assist a 57-year-old female who needed "psychiatric services" and matched her description.
“There was a call for a 57-year-old female who needed psychiatric services at the address on Wednesday morning. They were transported to the hospital," a spokesperson for the police told the outlet.
A photo shows an ambulance outside the apartment complex with its siren lights on; however, cops would not confirm if the woman who needed assistance was Wendy.
Hours before the alleged incident, Wendy's team revealed she was suffering a "breakthrough" covid case and announced the new season of The Wendy Williams Show has been pushed back.
"While continuing her health evaluations, Wendy has tested positive for a breakthrough case of COVID-19," the statement posted to her Instagram read. "To allow Wendy time to quarantine and fully recover and to ensure that our production abides by all SAG/AFTRA and DGA Covid protocols, we expect to begin the 13th season of The Wendy Williams Show on Monday, October 4th."
They told fans that repeat episodes would be aired until then.
Wendy's positive Covid result isn't the only issue she's been battling lately. Last week, it was announced she's actually been "dealing with some ongoing health issues and is undergoing further evaluations."
At the time, her team claimed she would "not be able to complete her promotional activities next week," which has proved not to be the case any longer.
The Wendy Williams Show staff has been making what seems like one excuse after the other for the host, making her fans question what is really going on with Wendy.
One year ago, she went on hiatus after claiming she was experiencing fatigue due to Graves' disease. At the time, her team said, "Recently, Wendy has been dealing with symptoms from her Graves' disease which is causing fatigue. In consultation with her doctor and as a precautionary measure, she will be taking some time off as she continues to receive treatment."
