Williams told “Extra” in June that she was going to partner with Apple for a podcast after an amicable split with production company Debmar-Mercury. Apple did not confirm the announcement, but Williams has been teasing the podcast on social media for months.
Despite being vaccinated, the host contracted COVID-19 a year ago. This was why she postponed the debut of her namesake show’s 13th season until early October.
It was postponed a second time, to mid-October, then returned with a rotating group of guest hosts. Those guests most notably Sherri Shepherd, who debuted her own new talk show this month carried what turned out to be the final season of “The Wendy Williams Show.”
Meanwhile, Williams dealt with continuing health issues including her Graves’ disease and other thyroid concerns. In June the host talked to TMZ about an additional health concern she was facing: lymphedema, which was causing her feet and legs to swell.
