Wendy Williams' guardian demands repayment of $112,500 in child support from her ex-husband

Wendy Williams' legal guardian has filed court documents demanding repayment of $112,500 in child support from her ex-husband Kevin Hunter.

The 59-year-old former talk show host was placed under conservatorship in early February 2022 when her bank intervened, claiming in a New York court that her behavior was “worrying.”

Her guardian Sabrina Morrissey has now claimed in court documents that Wendy's former partner Kevin – from whom the presenter divorced in 2020 after 21 years of marriage – was “overpaid” for three months and “unjustly enriched himself” through the star's bank account.

Sabrina added in documents obtained by Page Six that The Wendy Williams Show stopped payments to the former host in October 2021, but Kevin continued to receive payments until January 2022, which he confirmed.

In her filing, she says, “I believe this was primarily because the payments on her account were set to an 'autopay' feature.”

Sabrina added that the payments violated “the express terms” of Wendy and Kevin's settlement agreement, which stated that the payments would stop if his ex-wife's income fell to “less than twice her then-annual income (as of February 1, 2020).”

The newspaper goes on to say: “By retaining the funds he was overpaid, he violated (Wendy's) right of ownership of those funds.”

Sabrina demands that Kevin not only repay the six-figure sum, but also repay the interest on the money.

She has also asked the court to impose a news gag order on him to prevent him from speaking to the “press or others” about the matter.

Sabrina stated in the documents: “The potential harm to (Wendy) is great.

“Mr. Hunter and his agents have demonstrated their willingness to speak to the press about these issues.”

Wendy reacted violently to the guardianship and described her financial lack of freedom in the two-part documentary “Where is Wendy Williams?”.

The Lifetime special also features Wendy's battle with dementia and aphasia, which her son, Kevin Hunter Jr., says are the result of her years of drinking.

Sabrina has accused A and E Networks, Lifetime's parent company, of “degrading” Wendy by filming her “in an obviously disabled state” for the show.
