Wendy Williams Spotted Enjoying Night Out After Top Neurologist Claimed to Debunk Her Dementia Diagnosis

Wendy Williams was seen out on the town with her niece, Alex Finnie, over the weekend, less than a month after a neurologist claimed that the former talk show host did not have frontotemporal dementia (FTD).

Williams, 61, could be seen stepping out for a late night bite at Brooklyn Chop House in downtown Manhattan, in photos published by the Daily Mail on Monday, December 8.

The media personality arrived a little after 8 p.m. and wore black micro denim shorts, a fur jacket and a blouse. She finished the look with a designer bag and matching fur boots. Her blond hair was worn down and she added a pop of color with a bright pink lip.

She slipped out just before midnight with her niece walking beside her, according to the outlet, which reported that Williams was in good spirits but stayed tight-lipped when photographers asked questions.

Williams’ team first announced her FTD diagnosis in February 2024. But last month, TMZ reported that a top neurologist claimed that Williams was not suffering from the disease, which affects the frontal and temporal lobes of the brain and leads to problems with language, behavior and more.

An earlier court filing had cited the diagnosis in connection with her conservatorship. The judge in that case has not publicly commented on the reported discrepancy.

Since then her legal team has moved to revisit the conservatorship in light of the new findings. Williams has not commented on the updated evaluation.
