In the bombshell Lifetime documentary Where is Wendy Williams?, Wendy’s family said she was doing better while with family in Florida. However, the court ended up ordering Wendy to return to New York. The family said Wendy didn’t have a support system in New York and she was off the rails without family.

In the doc, Wendy was seen fighting her close friends and family about her alcohol intake. Her son Kevin Jr. spoke honestly about his mom’s issues with addiction and the strain it put on their relationship.

Wendy’s family claimed the guardian does not allow them to contact Wendy while in the facility. They said they did not know the name of the facility and Wendy had to call them for them to communicate.

Now, Wendy’s brother Tommy spoke to Us Weekly about her status.

“The past was obvious. We saw it,” he added. “She was in a worse state, and the [documentary] depicted it. Now [she is in] a different state.”

As RadarOnline.com previously reported, Wendy’s guardian Sabrina Morrissey sued Lifetime’s parent company days before the release – in an attempt to block the doc from airing.

The judge ended up ruling in favor of Lifetime.

Wendy’s family said they hope to convince a judge to terminate the guardianship when the court reviews the guardianship at the one-year mark.
