Wendy Williams Makes Rare Appearance After a Year Away

Wendy Williams has made a comeback after over a year of being out of the public eye, as seen in recent photos.

According to Page Six, the former talk show host was spotted at Bolingo Balance, a holistic wellness store in Newark, New Jersey, on Monday, August 26.

This sighting comes amidst her ongoing health challenges. Accompanied by her son, Kevin Hunter Jr., the 60-year-old appeared “sharp, upbeat and aware,” as noted by a store employee who chatted with the outlet.

During her visit, Wendy chatted with store owner Victor Bowman about various holistic health products. Ebenezer mentioned that while Williams engaged in conversation, her son took the lead in explaining some of the offerings, as she was still getting familiar with the store’s concepts.

Bowman revealed he provided her with herbal supplements—including iron-rich options like sarsaparilla and capsules aimed at balancing hormones and improving mental health. “She mentioned she wanted to focus on circulation but kept things brief for their first visit and plans to return soon,” he shared.

A photo from Williams’ visit was shared on Bowman’s Facebook on August 19, showing the two of them smiling together. Williams held a bouquet of colored roses and a large green shopping bag, prompting a flood of supportive comments from fans, with one saying, “Wendy looks good,” and another adding, “So glad to see her looking healthy in your store.”

This appearance is particularly meaningful given Williams’ history of health issues, which include a diagnosis of frontotemporal dementia and battles with Graves’ disease and lymphedema. Her last public sighting was in March 2023 when she was photographed in New York City.
