"Don't play with her scooter": Internet reacts as Wendy Williams goes off on her caretakers for leaving her unattended

American former presenter and media personality Wendy Williams recently attended her son Kevin Hunter Jr.'s college graduation. The 60-year-old former talk show presenter was photographed at the graduation on Thursday, December 26. She was seen entering and exiting the event location on a red mobility scooter.

However, at one point, while sitting on her mobility scooter on a busy street sidewalk, the former host of the Wendy Williams Show was seen harshly speaking to her caregiver. She criticized the caretaker for picking her up from the restaurant in the wrong car and leaving her scooter alone.

Additionally, the entire exchange was caught on camera by the We In Miami Podcast. When the podcast team questioned Williams about what happened, she gave them an explanation, adding:

"They got the wrong car, so I knocked on the door, and it was totally the wrong car. They left my scooter as they walked over there. Leaving my most precious, most - this cost a f*cking mint, motherf*cker. They just left my sh*t out there."

Now, once the video was uploaded on X, it went viral. Netizens then took to X to react to the whole video. One even said that caretakers shouldn’t "play with her scooter".

“Well how are you doing?... Don’t play with her scooter,” wrote one X user.

Others also supported Wendy and criticized the caretaker. One even said that it's good that Wendy's cognitive functions are working nicely. Another one said that they are “concerned” about how the caretakers are treating her.

“Viable proof that Wendy Williams isn't incapacitated like the mainstream media alleges. I am pleased to see her cognitively aware and alert,” said one user.

“You better tell em, Wendy,” another person commented.

“Everyone is laughing in the comments and here I am concerned. I hope they're treating her right,” another X user showed concern

On the other hand, other netizens criticized the former TV host for her behavior.

“I honestly don't know why anyone would want to work for her. Her mouth is reckless and I don't give a f*ck who she is. There are always other jobs. Drive home on your f*cking scooter if you don't like it b*tch,” wrote another user.

“I know dementia and this ain’t it,” one X user claimed.

“Someone’s been catered to for way too long,” another one said, sarcastically.

Wendy Williams' conversation with her caregivers was recently caught on camera by We In Miami podcasters. Williams, who was diagnosed with aphasia and frontotemporal dementia in 2023, was seen during her son's graduation dinner in Miami.

The media celebrity arrived decked up, despite her evident mobility challenges. She wore a floor-length, shimmering midnight blue gown and black-and-white heels.

Wendy Williams then accessorized her outfit with a brown Louis Vuitton crossbody bag. She wore her blunt-cut bangs and caramel-highlighted hair straight and down. The delighted mother was photographed grinning and applauding her only child as soon as she entered.

However, before going somewhere else, her team allegedly left the scooter on the side of the road after taking it outside the restaurant, which made her enraged, as evident in the video shared by We in Miami podcast. It was then clarified that this was the reason behind the altercation between Wendy and her caregivers.
