Finally, The Wendy Williams Show will return Monday, Oct. 18, for Season 13, with all new episodes, but without Wendy as host.
A recent statement from The Wendy Williams Show reports that, “Wendy will not be returning to her treasured purple chair just yet. As we wait for her return, we will have all new original shows with an exciting line-up of guest hosts, games and more!”
Wendy Williams has been on hiatus from her show since Sept. 20 when Season 13 was supposed to start. Her absence is due to medical reasons.
Since then, fans had anticipated her return Oct. 4, which did not occur. Now Oct. 18 is the new date, and fans are excited for new episodes. Knowing that her shoes are hard to fill, fans are anxiously awaiting her return.
Wendy’s fans, whom she also calls her co-hosts cannot wait for her new episodes. In the meantime, they are also excited to see who her guest hosts will be.
That wait is over as fans and co-hosts will continue to enjoy Wendy’s Hot Topics with their favorite Hot Talk panelists.
The lineup includes, Bevy Smith, Michael Yo, Elizabeth Wagmeister, and Devyn Simone, who will help Wendy to kick off the new season with the latest Hot Topics and a new edition of Trendy @ Wendy.
Tuesday, Emmy Winning-Producer, New York Times bestselling author and ‘Friend to the Show,’ Leah Remini steps in as Wendy’s special guest host!
Since Wendy’s shoes are difficult to fill, “we need to find the right fit!” states Team Wendy.
“Leah brings a lot of fun, laughs and energy that we know our Wendy Watchers will love. She’s our people and we’re excited to see her walk through those double doors!” Team Wendy states.
“We love you for watching and can’t wait for the new season to start Monday!”
