The Wendy Williams Show producer revealed that there are no chances that Williams could return to TV. The producer, Suzanne Bass, shared the following after Wendy was diagnosed with dementia and aphasia on Thursday.
In a conversation with People Magazine, Bass shared that the viewers keep asking her if Wendy will ever be back on screen, but it hurts her to say no to all those fans.
Suzanne Bass's Comments On Wendy Williams' Return To TV
Suzanne Bass revealed in the conversation, "Since Wendy's been off the air, there's been a huge void in both daytime TV and pop culture." She further said, "I think there's always been a glimmer of hope for a comeback for her, but since this diagnosis, that seems impossible. It makes me very sad."
The producer continued, "I do know it takes time to diagnose conditions like this. I'm saddened by it all. Because people are constantly saying, 'Wouldn't it be great if Wendy makes a comeback?' I'm more sad about her health, not that she can't make a comeback. To have this sort of diagnosis, there's some finality to it."
Bass went on to confess that Wendy Williams had to struggle to get her thoughts together during the last few episodes of the show. She said, "You can go back and see the show, and there's really long periods of quietness where she's not speaking. And you're thinking, 'What's happening? There were early signs [of something wrong] where you're grasping for words, having a hard time collecting your thoughts, and remembering things. Maybe that's what was happening back then.'"
