CNN
"The Wendy Williams Show" is coming to an end.
A spokesperson for Williams confirmed the news to CNN in a statement on Tuesday.
"It's been a challenging time for Wendy as she deals with her health issues. She is incredibly grateful to Debmar-Mercury, to Sherri and everybody else who has supported the show through this time," Williams' rep Howard Bragman said. "She, more than anyone, understands the reality of syndicated television -- you can't go to the marketplace and sell a show that's the 'Maybe Wendy Show'. She understands why this decision was made from a business point of view, and she has been assured by Debmar-Mercury that should her health get to a point where she can host again and should her desire be that she hosts again that she would be back on TV at that time."
