Just few days after saying that she wasn’t going to watch Sherri Shepherd’s new talk show, Wendy Williams has come out to state that she would actually like to have a conversation with the daytime TV host who is set to replace her own show.
Now Williams is publicly calling on Shepherd to hash it out in person. According to a statement obtained by The Shade Room, Wendy Williams said,
“I would love the chance to actually speak with Sherri and sit down and meet.”
In a statement, her attorney, LaShawn Thomas added,
“Wendy requesting to have a sit down with Sherri to have a meeting of the minds is the perfect solution as she has no ill will or intent. Wendy is preparing to get her show back in motion.”
However, Wendy’s publicist, Shawn Zanotti, calls out Shepherd for health-shaming the Wendy Williams
“I personally feel that it is difficult to wish a person well, which Sherri did,” during an Instagram Live over the weekend, “while attempting to health-shame them at the same time, especially since Wendy was the one who created multiple platforms that gave Sherri several opportunities,” Zanotti says. “Wendy is an icon and should be respected as such.”
As for Williams’s health, she is “doing amazing,”. She “tons of support” from family, friends, her team and her “co-hosts” (her nickname for her fans), and is “working on projects.”
