Wendy Williams’ Guardian Blocks Dinner with Niece, Lawyer
Despite earlier claims from her guardian that Wendy Williams is free to see her loved ones, a planned dinner outing with her niece and new lawyer was abruptly shut down — fueling growing concerns about the extent of her guardianship restrictions.
Sources with direct knowledge revealed that Wendy had arranged to dine at a New York City restaurant with her niece, Alex Finnie, and her newly retained attorney, high-profile litigator Joe Tacopina.
However, her court-appointed guardian, Sabrina Morrissey, reportedly blocked the outing, refusing to let Wendy leave the fifth floor of the assisted living facility where she currently resides — a place Wendy herself has described as a “luxury prison.”
This decision directly contradicts a recent letter Morrissey’s legal team sent to TMZ, claiming Wendy was not being isolated and could visit family whenever she wished. The dinner cancellation now casts serious doubt on those assurances.
While no official reason was provided for the denial, insiders believe it may be linked to Wendy’s growing efforts to terminate the guardianship altogether.
The talk show host is reportedly determined to fight for her independence — and if a judge refuses to end the arrangement, she intends to pursue a jury trial, with Tacopina leading her legal challenge.
Tacopina, known for his courtroom prowess — including his recent victory defending A$AP Rocky — would then be directly opposing Morrissey in what could become a very public and high-stakes legal showdown.
