Wendy Williams Reveals Graves’ Disease Diagnosis, Show Goes on Hiatus

wendy williams graves disease

Wendy Williams announced to her viewers that she was diagnosed with Graves’s Disease and would be taking some time off from her show to focus on her health.

“My doctor has prescribed … are you ready? As of today, three weeks of vacation…’What? Who are you?’ I was pissed.” – Wendy Williams

The autoimmune disorder causes overstimulation of the thyroid and can lead to puffy eyes, anxiety, fatigue, insomnia, and elevated blood pressure.

Williams has been battling with her health for numerous months after she passed out on stage and complained of having “flu-ish” symptoms.

Even though the doctor told her to rest for three weeks, she’s hoping to come back sooner.

“I’ll be back in two [weeks]…I’m not an heiress. Who is going to pay my bills? Are you serious? I’m just saying, I come from working class.” – Wendy Williams

  4. My aunt has Thyroid Disease. Her eyeballs are huge, like they are ready to pop right out of her head.

  5. Looks like Wendy’s time is almost up. If the ugly, shit talking bitch with fake tits dies, I won’t lose any sleep!

  6. Best of luck to you, Wendy and may you return to us soon feeling much better. I have several autoimmune disorders so I know how tired you can feel sometimes both from the disorders themselves and from the medications that you must take to control the disorders. God bless

  7. Feel bad for her. Most sistas be dying over obesity, diabetes and hypertension but graves disease thats scary

    • Lol, swear it’s hard to take you seriously, even if you are being serious.

  8. I don’t always agree with what Wendy be saying but it is her job to say the things as she does I don’t wish this on her are anyone else at that to say this is karma is not right this is someone’s daughter, mother sister friend and wife Wendy talks a lot of shit but it’s her job and someone has to do it hell I talk about people for free as I should stop but I wish I did get paid to say the things I say but I do wish and pray Wendy will be ok .

    • You must not know how the universe works.

      Whatever you put out comes back to you 10 to 100 fold.

      And sorry I don’t pray or give positivity to negativity.

      Instead of telling people who they should and should not root for, why don’t you put that energy towards people like this becoming agents for good and stop praying they will be well so they can keep disseminating the same BS.
