Is Wendy Williams still returning for "The Wendy Williams Show?"

Just last week, she was hospitalized for psychiatric issues, and a few days prior to that, she tested positive for COVID-19.

Last week, the controversial TV host was already spotted wheelchair-bound with badly bruised legs outside her New York apartment.

Wendy was being pushed by a young man in her wheelchair and was assisted and lifted out of her wheelchair to be placed in the back of an SUV.

However, just because she's out of the hospital doesn't mean she's ready to get back to work.

An insider revealed to The Sun that the 57-year-old media personality is "stressed out and not ready" to take on the demands of her high energy show following her recent health problems.

The insider who is said to be close to the host and her family added, "She's stressed and only. Wendy has enough money. She's single."

"She needs to get clean and enjoy her life."

But the insider added, "She shouldn't be filming yet. it's way too soon."

Meanwhile, a second source said the same tone about Wendy Williams.

"She's got problems and unfortunately people bottom out."

They added, "When I saw that she was hospitalized, I felt bad. I hope that she will get to a better place, and I'm sure that when the ambulance came - that she went to get the help she needs."
