Williams
The vultures have begun circling around Wendy Williams
Struggling talk show host Wendy Williams has sustained yet another public relations blow.Following reports that she has lost access to her own finances and may not be returning to her show, new reports have just emerged that her own friends might have played a role in her dramatic downfall.Radar Online claims to have obtained new court documents related to the lawsuit reveal that Williams’ friends were the ones who lobbied her financial advisor, Lori Schiller, to get Wells Fargo to cut her off from her own bank accounts.Word of Williams’ poor health and dire financial straits emerged earlier this week amid a lawsuit with Wells Fargo. Williams claims the bank, working in tandem with Schiller, have been unjustly blocking her from accessing to her own money and, as a result, she cannot pay her bills.“To summarize without divulging too much on the public record, Wells Fargo has strong reason to believe that [Williams] is the victim of undue influence and financial exploitation,” Wells Fargo wrote in a letter to the court.
