Tori Spelling affectionately reveals how often her looks are compared to that of Wendy Williams in this sweet and playful moment from her hit 'MISSpelling' podcast.
Have YOU got a story? Email Wendy Williams 'only received $82,000' from the controversial Lifetime documentary which chronicled her dementia and financial battles, a new complaint has claimed.
In February Morrissey initiated a lawsuit aiming to prevent the airing of the 4.5-hour docuseries - but was unsuccessful. Morrissey alongside noted civil rights litigator Roberta Kaplan claim the network and defendants 'took advantage of Williams' and say they should pay for her ongoing medical bills and guardianship going forward,
The complaint alleges the 'defendants not only deliberately destroyed' Williams' 'credibility and image' but did so for money - turning Williams into a 'laughing stock.' The suit claims executive producer Mark Ford and his crew were aware of 'Williams' severe and incapacitating cognitive and physical impairments' but insisted on 'filming her anyway.'
It was claimed that guardian Morrissey was not involved in the documentary or the contract and was not shown a copy of the contract until months after it was executed. ' This agreement was submitted after W.W.H. had already been filmed by Defendants while she was clearly disheveled, not mentally present, and confused. No person who witnessed W.W.H. in these circumstances could possibly have believed that she was capable of consenting to an agreement to film, or to the filming itself.'
The suit also contains photos that were allegedly sent to Morrissey on set showing Williams looking happy and professionally dressed and styled. 'Towards the end of the documentary, were very, very worried and saying to her management, who was the only other person that was coming into her apartment on a daily basis, 'Something has to be done to help her, this is getting very dire and scary,' Ford explained, per the outlet.
'This blatant exploitation of a vulnerable woman with a serious medical condition who is beloved by millions within and outside of the African American community is disgusting, and it cannot be allowed,' the legal team for Williams' guardian told the court. Among the people listed as its executive producers included Williams, her son Kevin Hunter Jr. and Selby, according to THR.
Morrissey said that the arrangements weren't honored, as a preview for the project was put out without her being notified ahead of time. Morrissey told the court she was not privy to the creation of the company and that the name of the person who signed the contract as the company's CEO was 'not clearly legible,' and 'highly distinguishable from' Williams' signature.
